 LAW OF MOUNTAIN
Told Of Stills in Cumberland Hills and Is Later Found Dead in Cell

Nashville, Feb. 4.--Federal prohibit ion agent in search of mo"nshine stills have come against the unwritten law Of the Southern mountaineers. In running down illicit distillerieS in a little town on the frngc of the Cum berland mountains, they have come face to face with the thinly yelled an tagonism of the natives in q case whero crime may have been commit ted because q son of the mountains turned renegade.
 Sheriff A. P. Warren of McMinn- vile, his wife and John Rain are 10 3ked up in the Cookcville jail, be- cause Fred Murphy. q go\ CTnment in- former, was found last week hanging dead in his cell at the AfcMinnVille jail. with his hands loosely tied be- hind his back with d wire correspond ing to q missing bed spring in the next celf
 The coroner returned a verdict of suicide and the body WlS buried, but it has been cxhumcd and chemists are seeking to know whether Murphy vas poisoned.
 Murphy had been a stool pigeon of the federal prohibition agents and had violated the tradition held to be sacred anons-his own people, for he had told on those who were running fllicit stills.
 Among those was Sheriff \. P. War ren. who was charged with operating q distillery. The shcriff's wife was arrested too.
 In spite of this. the sheri1h pursued his duties as iailcr. Then Murphy was arrested on d charge of forgery. He protested that this was :: frame up of the men, who, with sheriff War rcn, had been caught in the govern ment's net.
 Suddenly, MurDhy's nondsmui gave him up. At that time sheriff Warren had only one prisoner, John Rufus Rain. Ean was released by order of the court, Saturday afternoon, just a flew minutes after Murphy was placed in jail.
 i At , o'clock a small boy found Murphy hanging dead from the cell ceiling, A few minutes later Mrs. Warren and neishbors rel :hcd the cell. Sis wires were missing from the cell adjoining, 1t was also found. Mur- phys cell Was locllcd.

*Gsi6enhagen and associates OF Chi
casD; efficient engineers, accountants
and !enployment advisers, have made
thsH report on the organization and
administration of the government of
South4 Carolina and the surveys made
by these efficiency experts show some
very enlightening facts about the
Palmetto state. The survey, was be-
gun in July at the special request of
Senator Niels Christensen, chairman!

The report of the engineers is con-
tanned in several sections, which will
be made, public from day to day.
ssTaxatfon and Revenue is the first
subject taken up by the engineers
and they discuss fully this phase of
the state government. Topics out
lined in this first report are: The
basic principles for a model system
Of state taxation; outline of tax laws
in force in South Carolina; admins
trati7e machinery for taxation and
assessment including the primary as
sessment, Of property, the state tax
commission and the tax board of re-

and his firm grasp OF big projects. Such
service is particularly needed now when
Richmond proposes to enter upon an extern
sive program OF street and sewer improve
ment. but thore is no reason to hope that his
affection for Richmond is sufficient to i'm
duce him to como here for an artisans
wage when his talents can command else
where remuneration more in keeping
with his professional worth.
Where the Mayor will turn now is prob
ienatical. He Is charged with the burden
of tho city administration, but if the Boards
decree that he must employ cheap labor is
irrevocable, then he will have to go into
the markets where such labor is found and
get the best he can. He is not likely to
be so fortunate us he was when his board
was first organized. Where can he get an
other Levy, another Trafford. another
Myers. for $4,000 the year? And how can
he expect to hold them when private enter
prise is ready and anxious to give full pay
for such service wherever it finds it?
1t is unbelievable that the Board OF
Aldermen will not alter its decision Too
much is ut stake to permit i; to stand
Members OF the Board are too loyal to
Richmond thus TO bind, it hand and foot
and sacrifice its opportunity.
