MT Betles stated that while the district tIaIeieu Is highly mineralized, it would take uol- lar for dollar to work it, as thole Is not a stick of wood Of any kind to be had. and no twigs even as large as ones finger.

Dublin, April l9.-Civil war ir
Ireland is nearing an end, Free State
officials enthusiastically say here IN
discussing the. events Of the last few
days, including the capture and fatal
wounding Of Liam Lynch, republican
chief of staff.
The Free State adhercnts declare
their forces are bearing down on
the Scattered remnants" of the re-
publican troops, that the end Of or
ganized republican resistance to the
government is near. They paint 4
picture of Ireland at peace, internal
warfare oven, developing her re
sources and industries and forging
steadily ahead
But different sentiment is found
among republican sympathizers
The struggle is far from over, say
they. The insurgents are strong
The capture of Lynch and the other
raids were merely incidents, none
of them Of far-reaching import.
Await Complete Freedom.
Some day, say the republicans,
Ireland will settle down to peace,
but that day will be when Ireland IS
absolutely and unqualifiedly divorced
from the British Emperor Com
monweath Of Nations, if you choose.
! But however compromising the
extreme elements of both factions
may be, there is no doubt that the
bulk Of the Irish, whatever their
political creed, eagerly desire ces
sation of war.
For the guerilla warfare that has
ragged in Ireland since the Free State
treaty went into effect, a little more
than Il year ago, has cost more
than S200,000,OO0 in property dam

mercc, rendered life unsafe almost
everywhere on the island and has
caused the death of no one knows

Here is sketch of the progress
of the Irish civil war:
The treaty with England. making
ireland free state within the
British Commonwealth of Nations,
was signed Dec. 6, 1921, as the di,
| rect result of republican agitation.

Many republicans, promincn'
among them Arthur Griffith ant
Michael Collins, regarded the treat!
as decided compromise on The
part of the Brtish--somethn that
should gladly be accepted as step
ping stone to absolute independence
Others, led by canon dc Valera
Countess Markievicz, Rory O'COnnol
and others, would tolerate no sub
mission to the "forcign dcspot" anc
regarded the treaty as capitula
ton to the British.
On Jan. 8, 1922, De Valera re

Battle of Dublin.
Free State forces at first made no
effort to dislodgc him. But under
British ssure, Collins men
stormed the building and succeeded
in taking it after a desperate battle.
Most of the insurgents, however,
escaped and again took to the coun-
trysidc where they since have con-
tinucd their guerilla operations.
In some cases they have even
levied tribute on the people to pay
the cost Of maintaining their forces.
That is the situation in ireland to-
day.
Both Collins and Griffith, frs:
heads of the Free State government,
today are dead. Collins was assas-
sinatcd by republican sympathizcrs.
