Member for West Mayo on 21st April last, of stills seized, the number of convictions obtained, and the amount of reward received by the police for making these seizures; and, in view of the differences, will he accede to the request of the inhabitants of those districts to have a sworn Inquiry held into the allegations made against the police that they persuaded the people to establish stills so that they might get the rewards for the seizure of them.
