The ILLICIT TRADE N WHISKY.

z 1ELtNif Htf AAIfN . %
The peace officers Of Oklahoma and
other prohibition states who find them
selves unable 70 suppress the liquor
traffic should not feel badly about it,
for the government. with its strong
arm and keen revenue officers. admits
that II is unable to suppress the moon
sinners
one reason Why the Illicit traffic has
continued in spite Of the efforts of the
internal revenue department to put a
stop to the Illegal process Of manufac-
turing distilled spirits without warrant
Of laB may be found in the fact that
In the main the owners Of such con
Germs have coafned their operations to
the mountains or to sparsely settled
districts not easy OF access by those
charged with the duty Of breaking up
dlstilIerieg Of this character
The districts most fayorably located
for the operation Of these unlawful
concerns are almost entirely confined
to Tennessee, Alabama, North Caro-
lima, Virginia and Georgia.
Kentucky is not included IN The list
for the reason that, although the east
ern part Of that state is mountainous,
80 many lawful distllleries are in oper-
alton in the dark and bloody ground
comparatively meagre opportunity has
been offered to the moonshiner in that
territory to dispose Of bis goods az a
profit
And yet 10 iaconsiderable amount Of
Illicit whisky is made in the mountains
of Kentucky. not only for home con
sumption. but for sale % whosoeYer
viii buy. There is good reason TO be.
llieye that quantities of the stuff are
sold across the border in Tennessee
and other states touching the blue
grass commonwealth
Perhaps in no state in the union has
the making of wildcat whisky pros
pered to such degree as in Tennes-
see, and perhaps nowhere has there
been more persistent effort to sup
press the traffic, but in spite Of the
most strenuous watchfulness on the
part OF the government officials the
business goes on, not in as unlnter.
rupted way, to be sure, as in other
years. but stlIl it goes on, and likely
1t will continue to do so for many years
TO come
In no state in the union are more
alert, aggressive or more capable field
men employed In breaking up these
wildcat concerns than in Tennessee
yet they find plenty of work to do
lThey are never idle more than a few
days at most, and then, only when
planning new raids.
Contrary to popular belief, the mul'
tiplicity of moonshine distiileries is
not altogether due 10 the temperance
laws of the state, II at ALL for long he
fore statewide prohibition was dream

and II has been only by the most ag
gressiye search inaugurated in the last
few years, that their hiding places
