A Dishonorable Suit At Winnemucca Press
The Territorial Enterprise reports editors and a compositor from the Sixteen State press at Winnemucca were taken to Carson City and charged in the U S Circuit Court with publishing and distributing obscene matter via an advertisement for a San Francisco cure all. The paper defends itself, condemns the complaint as petty and personal, and notes the financial strain such lawsuits impose on Humboldt county. The Lover State defends editors as honest workers and laments the motive behind the action.
