REVIVING THE RECORD.

(Omaha World.) The Labor Signal of Indianapolis reproduces from the files of the 'rat) Journal -atpresent Harrison’s organ—a speech made by that gentleman, Oct. 4, 1874, in which He denounces the Irish laboring element of the city. In the same issue of the (rat) Journal appears an editorial from which this is excerpted: “In connection with the disreputable Irish police force, the Irish Catholics of the southwestern portion of the city will undoubtedly attempt this year, by 1 ullying, brawls and intimidation, to repeat the tactics so successfully usedin the fifth and twelfth precincts last year.” To use a rather inelegant figure, you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear,” and vith the KnowNothing leaven in him you can never make anything of Harrison but an Irish hater.
