Dayton daily empire. [volume] (Dayton [Ohio]) 1850-1865, 1860-06-16

The Jomad, Of Saturday last in noticing
the fact, that the EU'pire published our nrti'
Gle on John Mills a Id the Layye =, says;
There seems 10 be n perfect unity between
the Empire and lis friend Of the gazette in as
saultng John Mills
This Ia an usinuution that the attack alm-
ded tn was preconcertcd arrangement be-
tween the GaysHe and Empire. This is not
true. The responsibility is exclusively our
own. The Empire, we presume, published the
article as q matter of local interest just as the
.JoufHat would under reversed circumstances.
The .IonpaL adds: "lle is known to be one
of the strongest and most avnilable men on
the Republican roll in Montgomery county
and hence the anxiety Of our neighbor across
the way to aid in ''pourng broadsldes INTO
him. But these brethren will lind that there
will be q recoil of the guns used inthe broad
side which win upset all their calculations
! Whot "caicniah0us" does the Journal al
hide to2 The Gasetfc does not intend to OPP
nose the nomination or election of John
| Mills If he is the nominee Of the Roppbhcan
marty. we will not bolt the nomination. II
his name is on the ticket, it will receive our
support, We a. not intend TO initiate the ac-
ton of the Journal in 1850 when il joined, a
faction aud threw the Republican party into
minority of coo in Montgomery county We
have stated our objections, publicly, to. the
unjust official conduct of Mr.. Mills, and II the
Repu blicnns of the county are of the opinion,
chat his treatment Of the Gdzette is right and
entities him to a reelection, we will not man
iesst our displeasure Of their opinion by "glv
inc aid and comfort TO the enemy as the
Journal did in the famous 3fimbie campaign
alluded 10.
The Jom7a', no doubt, looks on the nomi
nation of Mr. Mills with.great oompaeency' i
has pecaHidry reason for regarding hun q'
'one OF the strongest and most available men
on the Republican roll in Montgomery Coun
ty.n II would not consent that any othermal
should be designated for this Office nor wouk
it agree that anybody else is half so "drdHG
ble." And wlly2 Simply besause it regard
bird in the land worth two in the bush.
: II knows that while Mr. Mills is sheriff, II vii
ret all. or nearly all, the Sheriff rs Sales. J
! that concern was Of the opinion that Mr., Mill
, would give the gazette one half or quarter HI
1 patronage, in nny contingency, would It no
e bitterly oppose his nomination and election
/ Would it not even go back to It's hrst love
and act with the Bell party2
= The conduct of public officers is open I
G scrutiny, and when wrong, ought TO be inve'
tigatcd We will exercise our own ludgmen
as to the proper time to speak our sentimenu
whatever they may be We have had our sa
r. about Mr.. Nils and do not wish to go Owe
e the ground again We assure the J0mna
4 however thai when heis nominated, the Gt
" zeiie will give him far more BiagR0nimou
n and disintercsied support than the JoWiia
=, because it will expect ereJythfng aud we hotI
Is i,a The GazeHe win fully illustrate III
= maxim: Blessed are they who expect natl
IA ing, for they shall be grotifed We antie
b, pate. that, ut least for two years the same M
y Iign influence, that now rules the country i'
the advantage Of Central ghipta, will co
tinue to rule We "bide cur time, hopir
