THE MOEMXG OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, AfRIL 12. 1923 DOCTOR COIICTEO IS OF SELLING LIQUOR Jury Only 15 Minutes in Jo seph Murphy Case. POISON PUT IN WHISKY Mr. Axley had been a resident of Salem for 19 years, having- come here from Topeka, Kan. He 19 survived by four sons. Earl and Raymond of Port land, Rollo of Silverton and Seth ot S'an Francisco. Mr. Axley -was 63 years of age at the time of his death. Bootlegger AVlio Used Denatured Alcohol Is Expected to Get Heavy Sentence. A federal court jury requireed only 15 minutes yesterday after noon to arrive at a verdict of guilty In the case of Dr. Joseph Murphy, who maintained offices in the Ral eigh building and sold alleged -whis ky which, according to the witness for the government, was a devil's broth of mixed poisons, including denatured alcohol. Murphy's whisky, as the testimony showed, was not even to be digni fied by the name of moonshine. In stead, it was made of grain and de natured alcohol, caramel coloring, glycerine and other things and la beled as old Pebbleford. Bogus rev enue stamps were said to have been used on the corks to lend sembLance to the fiction that it was real pre war stuff. Torgensen Star Witness. - Leonard Torgensen was the star witness for the government. He said he bought a bottle of the suppoosed whisky. He testified to seeing Dr. Murphy mix up some of the con coction and, when he ran short of ingredients, Torgensen was asked to go to' a local drug store and buy some denatured alcohol, which he did. He testified he saw Dr. Murphy pour this stuff into the mixture. That Murphy should sell such poi son for whisky struck Torgensen as a crime and he reported the matter to the police. Officers raided the office of Murphy and found labels and various ingredients said to have been used in making Murphy's own brand. Allan Bynon, assistant United States attorney, prosecuted Murphy. In his argument to the jury he called attention to the fact that John Murphy, the defendant's brother, was counsel for him and that the en ergy displayed in the defense might reasonably be attributed to that re lationship. v . Cross-Examination Rigid. Torgensen, witness for the gov ernment, was subjected to a rigid cross-examination that continued for three hours. He testified it was his only appearance in a liquor case as informant, that he acted voluntar- irly in the interests of public safety He is a veteran of the war, working at his trade, that of electric welder, in this city. Murphy will appear in court this morning for sentence. It is expected Attorney Bynon will ask for a max imum penalty and former convictions for violation of the liquor Jaws wn be brouerht ud against him. It is said he has been in the state courts frequently and by reason of that fact his latest offense is aggravated. He was formerly an office partner of Dr. Charles Liscum, recently sen tenced to two years' imprisonment at the McNeil island penitentiary for selling narcotics. Mrs. Mary E. Kevelle.

This is vital as the tirst step in forcing a downward trend upon all tax-levying bodies in order to bring relief from unnecessary tax burdens. . Immediate consolidation and concen tration of ail existing commissions, boards end scattered functions of government, in cluding the public service commission, into not to exceed ten departments, all directly accountable to the governor who in turn is directly responsible to the peo ple for their conduct. This centralization tf administrative responsibility is -necessary in thfl setting up of a simple, econ omical and responsible method of handling the state's business. Immediate, definite, equitable and cer tain plan for retiring the state's present overwhelming bonded indebtedness. Op pose submitting any further proposals for bond issues or appropriations at spe cial elections. Immediate insistence upon a showdown on the Japanese issue in Oregon.
