Dayton daily empire. [volume] (Dayton [Ohio]) 1850-1865, 1860-09-22

We have from time 10 time called the asien
ton ofthe voters Of this county TO the fact thai
neither the Republican papers or the Republi
can candidates in this county have dared %
come opt in defence ofJlcoB BRINKknaoTF
the Republican nominee for Supreme Judge
At last one Of them has dared to speak---ai
last one of them has had the beldness 10 de-
fend Mr. BRiSKERHoyF. In ON article In yes
terdav's Dayton Gazette, under the head Of
Judge BmSKERHoFr" we find the following:
There is an attempt by fusion Of all sorts
10 defeat the HONEST, cApABIe, AND UPRIGHT
BRlNgERHoVr roR SUPRENE JuDGE EVERY
REPrnLicAs vorg n his Due, and see 10 IL fhat
not one Is lost 10 him BY non-oftendaacs al
the polls
Yes, there is fnsion---a union Of the con
seryaiive people Of this State to defeat JAcon
BRISKERHoFr,aHd they sciH do IT. The Ca
sette says he is an "honest, capable and up
right" man, and that every Repablicoa cote
is he due." That the editor Of the Gatefte,
doubtless, thinks so, feels so, we believe. and
we are glad that he has had the manliness 10
come ont and say so We want to see the
question brought home TO the people Of this
county for their decision. We have all along
claimed that Mr. BRiSkgRHoyr was the repre-.
sentative man Of the Republican party, in the
contest first 10 be decided. We have claimed
that Messrs CRAIGHEAD, Mills, DRYDEN, BRU.
gS, BoLTTS, and the balance of the Republ
can candidates were, each and every one oi
them, in honor bound to vote for, and support
Mr., BmSKERHoFF The extract which We
copy above but proves that the Republican
leaders thus regard IT.
Citizens Of Montgomery, the Republican or
gan Of this city accepts the issue. Itdeclarei
Mr. BRIsEERHoFF ''honest, capable and up
right II pronounces him worthy of the sup
port of the people. II declares him entitled
to the vote of every Republican 1t gives the
Republican candidates warning, indirectly
that they are all expected to vote for him
They will be compelled to do it, or deceive tho
party which placed them in nomination. Re
member this, conservative men.
And remember, also, az evidence that sucl
will be the case that not one Of the Republi
can candidates has dared to state publicly and
openly, that he will vote against Mr.. Bank
ERHorF. If they are at heart opposed to him
why do they not come out like men, and tel
the voters SOP Are they afraid that by doing
so they would lose all claim upon, and the
votes Of, Mr.. BRINKERHoFFs friends in the
county? And are they afraid that if they
come out openly for him, like the editor of the
Gazette, that they may lose conservative votes
This surely is the only inference which can be
drawn from their course-the only excuse fol
their attempting to be on both sides of the
question is this treating the men fairly
whose votes they are soliciting2 And are
you, voters, willing to put up with such treat
ment2 We doubt it 1t is your right tC
know, and your duty to demand, the true pos
ition of these men, and it is also your duty
if they refuse or neglect to pay heed to tn,
demand, 10 vote against every one of them
They are either for or against you Max,
them answer which side they are on, befor,
you vote for single man on the Republican
ticket
