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.

Orpheum matinee today, 15-25-50-Ad.
SALEM, Or., April 11. (Special.)
George A. White formally entered the
republican contest as a candidate for
governor oi uregon toaay oy an-, -onp,,ji
his principles in five planks.
Reduction of the cost of state gov
ernment Tag made the leading issue
in Mr. White's platform, and he pro
posed a sharp cut of $1,000,000 from
the present state cost sheet. He also
proposed consolidation and concen
tration of all the state's commissions,
boards and scattered functions into
administrative departments, not more
than ten in number, and including the
public service commission. He would
hold them all directly accountable to
the governor, wno in turn is respon
sible to the people.
Achievement of tno purposes outlined
herein is the basis upon which I preyent
my name to the men and women of Ore
gon as a candidate for the republican
nomination for governor of the state:
Immediate deflation of state expendi
tures by cutting at least $1,000,000 from
the present cost at the next session of
the legislature. 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. A white
man cannot compete with a Japanese coolie
and we have got to halt this insidious in
vasion of our lands and industries without
further delay.
My mission as governor will be to stim
ulate progress in Oregon and promote the
good name of popular government in our
state.
To this e'id my earnest support will be
given to the relief of our agricultural in
terests,1 wh'ch must find encouragement
