The Register of Friday, aIluding to our lead.
ing article of last week, says we made r fervent
appeals "!in the name of Gen. Jackson. to come
to the rescue" and asks, most triumphantly:
"Who ever hears a Wing disturbing the ashes Of
Gen, Harrison, an equally popular leader, orthe
purpose of making little political capital 2''
We answer, we saw a Whig at this very work,
not long since, and for proof we refer to the col
umns of the Raleigh Register. In the campaign
of 1914 the list of Wing principles, published in
the Register, was headed THE MEMORY OF
HARRIsoNP See that print, of dale July 26th,
1914. Out of his own mouth is the Editor Of
the Register convicted of having 'edsturbed the
ashes "of General Harrison, g for the purpose of
making little political capital" With US the
case is entirely different We attribute no s1pe-
rior virtue to the ashes of Gen. Jackson nor
do we seek to " make political capital out Of any
portion Of his great career ), but the allusion to
him last week was most appropriately made, as
the Convention was to assemble on the anniversa4
ry of his most brilliant victory-ana besides, we
have the right; of which his most inveterate de!
famer would not deprive US, of speaking OF. his
pure republicanism, ,of his devotion to the cause
of popular government, and Of encouraging our
friends to emulate his high and bright example.
In this case, as in many others in which the Re
gster has attempted to misrepresent the Standard,
his weapons have geboundcd upon his own head.
