It is claimed that the call for the caucus was issued without the knowledge and consent of veral o! the member-rot the Republican town tmmittw. _. Meanwhile Selectman lflinotelter keeps the petition and do— clareo that he shall not call a spans] election, because he does not think it neoessaryand Josgph Kindley. the re- eently appointed collector, satisfies everybody except a few kickers. “If they insist upon a town meeting," says Selectman Klinefelter, "let them go to the courts and try to compel me. lam willing to be mandamuned. But I hold that the odioe is tilled by appoint. mont tor the remainder of the term,und, unless the court orders otherwise, I shall not agree to spending money from the town treasury for the expanses of a special election." Mr. Kliuefelter says that those who are now most prominent in demanding a special election were perfectly satisfied ‘ that the vacancy made by Mr. Whit- ney's death should be filled by appoint- ment until it transpired that those whom they favored for the place failed to get it. Then began the movement for a spatial election, and the circulation of petitions, and conferences of village politicians. Bluil's do not cut any ice with Mr. Klinefelter. From what can be learned, it seems likely that there will be a lively time at Thursday night’s, Republican caucus. There are already three candidates in the field, and others may enter within it the next day or two. The Democrats do not take much in- terest in the matter, because, as a Stam- ford statesman would say, the clock has struck twelve for that party in Dnrien, and its future is shrouded in impenetra- ble darkness. The Democrats don't know whether to nominate a candidate or not. Some feel that they should not, for two . reasons. One of them is that the candi- date Wonld be almost certain of defeat. The other is that the Democratic repre- scnutivc on the 'Board of Selectmen (Mr. Mackey) acted with Selectman Klinefelter in the appointment of Joseph Ilindley. ’ Mr. Klinéfelter is supported in his position by runny good citizens. It wil be interesting new to watch develop- ments in Dorian. The. latest petition was presented Saturday and under the law the meeting should be called within ten days. SENTlllEl.
