w. But we call attention to the fol
lowing facts. "a The fact that he
has received our account and these
months have passed by and we haye
received no pay. (2) The statement
to Mr., Murphy that he did not expect
to pay; as well as statement to Mr..
Hight, when he inquired as to whether
or not the account had been received,
that he, Mr.. Rainey, had received the
account and that he was giving him
credit on that which he had paid In
the past and which should not have
been paid, at this Mr. Hight asked,
DO you mean by this. Mr.. Rainey,
that you do not expect to pay it?'
His reply was, i do (3) Mr.. Rainey
hasralso made the same statement to
Chairman Hughes and Mr.. Murphy.
In view OF the above facts, we leave
1t to Mr.. Rainey and the people to
decide whether or not 1t looks as ii
we are to receive any pay.
"Mr. Rainey objects to the state
ment that he has not paid the fees,
going on the records of the court,
saying that it is private matter. We
insist that it is not private matter.
but the business OF the county and \
matter Of concern to the County
Court. If it were private matter
between the superintendent and Mr..
Rainey, we as private citizens would
have no more right to inspect these
pixies than any other citizen OF the
county. We claim to be servants Of
the County Court in this matter and
not private citizens. "
I'm conclusion, we will state that
we do not desire newspaper contro-
versy, but that we make these state
ments in order that Mr.. Rainey and
the people may not labor under any
misapprehension. And lastly, we de-
sire to state that under the law, and
under the resolution OF the County
Court, passed in compliance with the,
law, we are in duty bound to inspect
the pike when we are legally ordered
to do SO, and that we are entitled to
the compensation fixed therefor, and
1t is Mr.. Rainey's duty to pay same.
"And we further state that we have
never inspected any pike unless it was
our lawful duty to do so. and that Mr..
Rainey now owes us for certain in
spections which up to this time he
has refused to pay. Mr.. Rainey says
he is willing to pay us. II that is SO,
we ask him why he has not paid these
items when he was asked to do SO,
and when the itemized accounts were
presented to him,
I'VE are ready at any time to &C.
cept the payment from Mr.. Rainey.
That is what we have been asking for
and waiting for for quite awhile. +
THE best way we know for Mr.,
Rainey to settle this whole matter as
to our fees, is for him to come for
ward and pay same.

100000 IRISH VOLUNTEERS
Ready to Take Field Against Eng
land, Says Col. Wallace.
.PEGE FOUR

New York, April 29-An investiga-
ton was begun yesterday at the of
fee Of the United States district at
torney to determine whether crime
had been committed by persons re-
sponsiblc for the attacks on President
Wilson and the national administra-
ton that have appeared in IIsh-
American papers published here since
the outbreak of the revolution in
Dublin. Copies off these editorials
will be examined, it was said by one
of the assistant district attorneys
who has been prominent in the in
vestigatiO Of alien conspiracies.
The attention of the federal au.
Ihorities was first aroused by an edi-
sorial statement that information
which led to the sinking of the Ger
man ship which attempted to land
arms and ammunition on Irish soil
came from u member Of the Washing
ton administration, con the orders of
President Wilson," This declaration
has been authoritatively denied in
Washington.
Col. Patrick j. Wallace, comman-
der of a Comemara brigade of the
Irish Volunteers, who is now IN New
York, is authority for the statement
that the present situation in Ireland
was not fostered in Germany nor in
America.
''The plans Of the Irish Volunteers"
he said, "havc been ready ever since
the first talk of CONSUMPTION was
heard in Ireland. At the time of the
revolt there were 5000 fully armed
and fully trained volunteers in Dub
lin. Out through the country there
were 10000. With the neutral bodies,
there are today 100000 Irish Volun-
teers who, when the real test comes,
will take the field against the Eng
hsh."
An opposite view is expressed by
the Marquis: of Aberdeen, for nine
years viceroy of Ireland Lord Aber-
deem, who is now in New York, said
that, while he did not underestimate
the seriousness of the situation, he
was, nevertheless. convinced that the
outbreak woQld=Ib9 be Of short duration.
