Polk County CONTINUED 
MACHINE LEADER W.A. Lewis (left) was elected justice of the peace with league support in 1948, later broke with the league and county control from legislature.
MOB LEADER Ralph A. Marchant, who operates a nightclub near Ducktown, Tenn., said area would have been "shoe-top deep" in blood if league wanted violence. 
LEAGUE LEADER Frank D. Lowery (left) was elected to legislature, which then decided he had won by fraud, seated his opponent and supplanted league's commission. 
THE SHERIFF, John Edwards, here holding seized moonshine jugs; refused to intervene when machine officials demanded help in entering courthouse. Edwards, the only good government man still holding major county office, defended league action, saying that a "man’s got a right to defend himself."
