Show EDITOR C. N. LUND, JR. ' IS MOBBED AT SALINA Editor C. N. Lund, Jr. of the Sevier Valley Call was mobbed at Salina last Friday evening on account of his writing and publishing two very pointed stories relative to the conduct of the citizens of that commvmi-ty. commvmi-ty. Both stories were rather severe. One treated upon the subject of a married mail attempting to rape a fourteen year old girl, and the other related re-lated to bootlegging. This is the first time we have heard of an editor being mobbed mob-bed for trying to uphold the law, and it is the first time we ever heard of an editor in Utah running away from the job. There- is no cause for Mr. Lund's departure from Salina, if he told the trutli- The law-and law-and the state press will hack him up if he will stay at his post. Mr. Lund said that he was threatened by 100 or more citizens citi-zens of the town. They wanted want-ed to tar and feather him. He is now at Mount Pleasant. Mr. Lund says he wants to start a paper at Xount Pleasant. Pleas-ant. And to help you out, Mr. Lund, we will gladly sell yon the Pyramid and save you the trouble of starting a new one. One paper is enough for any valley. All you need to do is to get us the money so we can get out into a higher field. This field is scarcely large enough for us as it is, and we will gladly move on to greener fields if you want this one. |
