ASSAULT ON THE MEMORY OF ANDREW JACKSON
One of the Buchanan organs of this city, speaking
OF the charge of bargain and corruption by which
Mr.. Clay was smtten down, SAYS:
Mr.. Clay's opinion was not that Buchanan nor
even Kremer, was the original fabrcator of the
calumny, but that Jackson was the inventor of it,
That was also the opinion of the Kentucky Whig
State Convention of 1927, as stated in their ad.
dress, written by Isham Talbot, and read by
Charles 5. Morehead (now K. N. Governor of Ky.)
and that is the opinion, we believe, of all candid
men now"
We have no comments to make upon such de.
clarations emanating from Sag-Nicht organ of
the present day. We shall see, however, how the
myrads of Gen. Jacksons old friends will bear the
announcement that an organ of theirs shall stig-
matize the dead hero as I" the inventor" of the
most stupendous political calumny ever promulga.
ted in the United States. If the Sag-Nicht cause
is reduced to such strait that its defenders, in
order to avert the peoples indignation and scorn
from James Buchanan, must heap opprobrium
nountain-high upon the grave of jackson, its last
end must assuredly be near at hand. Let the
American nation decide between Andrew Jackson
and James Buchanan. Louisville Journal
