DEMANDED THE OFFICE.

DEMANDED THE OFFICE. MT. Baldwin Formally Calls Upon Mr. Garrity for the Appurtenances and Keys of the Town Agents Office.
 Selectman Robert E. Baldwin, acting under advice of his counsel, Herbert E. Benton and James Bishop, presented him self at the town agents office yesterday morning and made a formal demand upon Captain Garrity for the office of town agent. The demand was made quietly and in 8 buslness-like manner. MT. Garrity polite ly refused, and in the same quiet manner ss MT. Baldwin:
 Then MT. Baldwin said: tYou under stand, MT. Garrity, that demand the keys and sppurtenances of the office'"
 'I do," replied Mr. Garrity.
 "And you refuse to give them upf'
 q do," again replied MT. Garrity.
 Then MT. Baldwin left and few mo- ments later MT. Gsrrity did also.
 Previously MT. Baldwin, by advice of counsel, called upon Town Agent Garrity and stated to him that by the face of the Iotuiu LIB 11 oPPo0ic0 buos uo AaA pooh S'eOu- cd first selectman, and the face of the re- turns gave him prima facie claim to ex- ercise the functions of the office. In view of the fact, however, that there was some doubt upon the 1 question as to just who was elected first sslectmsn, although by the returns 1t was fair presumption that he (Baldwip) was 1 chosen, he thought that an alnicable solu- ton to the whole problem would be to call 8 meeting of the selectmen, submit the matter to the board and then to secure the opinion of some eminent attorney by which the board should be governed. This, he thought. would be peaceable way out oi the difficulty, and if both sides would unite the matter could be speedily settled To this proposition MT. Garrity deslined te | accede, and when this decision was made 1 known it was decided that 8 formal de msnd should be made.
 1 MT. Benton when seen said. Ut was Mir Bald wins purpose to settle this question peaceably if he could, but inasmuch as hi formal demand has been refused there fl no way in which this case can be settled except by going to the courts and askinl for a recount to determine who is first SC leotman. We do not claim that NIT. Bald win is first sele ctman, but we do clain that on the face of the returns the prim facie evidence ia in his favor. There is n presumption in the csge that MT. Garrit Is entitled to exercise the function of frs selectmsn, and therefore the only way tha the question can bs settled Is to ask th court for recount to settle the matter
