Letter from the William Uhlmann and Company to the Becker Brewing and Malting Company, 1917
Prohibition; Hops; William Uhlmann and Company; California; Becker Brewing and Malting Company;
This letter discusses the prohibition bill passed in Utah and a similar measure that was considered in California. The letter also contains a paragraph about placing an order of hops for the short time in which the Becker's could continue to produce beer. This letter shows that prohibition was a national trend and that it impacted many businesses, such as farmers, in addition to brewers, distillers and liquor retailers.

Letter from V. Hansen dated March 21, 1946.
Dating; Virginia Hansen; rural; Utah; Idaho; marriage; gender; humor; letter; travel; housekeeping; rejection
In this letter, Virginia Hanson responds to an unwanted suitor, who originally wrote to her asking to meet for lunch in Utah. It is a perfect example of where Virginia stands when it comes to marriage- she is not interested, and would rather it that men would just leave her alone. Her strong language towards the stubborn suitor illustrates this opinion.

Dear Comrade London: Your letter of March 4 is received and as I certainly do not want to get you into trouble with the Macnillan Company, I will drop the idea of the little volume for the present. What I cared most to include in it was simply "The Dream of Debs", which I think was not copyrighted except.in the Review and "The Apostate", which was published by the Appeal without copyrighting at all. We might publish each of these later on in pamphlet form if agreeable to you. '""" The trouble with our publishing "Human Drift" is that one really needs to have a liberal education before he can enjoy it while the others appeal to the ordinary wage-i7orker. I have had an occasional call for a booklet of yours entitled n<T,he Tramp" but do not remember to have seen a copy for a long time. 13 it one that you would like to have circulated by the Socialist locals? If you ever have occasion to say anything that is too warm for the other magazines, remember the Review. 7Te are growing but are not yet able to pay anything like the prlcea for articles which the big capitalist magazines offer.

PERRY ROBINSON, Managing Dirbotor. lQv.ember .1.9th., ^3 lily dear London, I have your letter and this is only a "brief line of acknowledgement. The "People of the Abyss", as you know, has "been published, and copies of it will have reached you before this letter, I think there is nothing you will object'to in the alterations, or elisions, which I have cade; in fact, I do not think you will notic© them. The book is getting a lot of notoriety, sons of it favourable, and some otherwise, but in what is generally acknowledged to be the worst publishing season that we have had in England for many years, I have great hopes of its being a big success. It promises that way at the start. The "Xcnpton wace Letters" has dragged very slowly at first, but is showing more activity during this last woek or two, and I think the outlook for it also is fairly promising* I am asking our Publicity Department to ssnd you some reviews which you may not have coon. Yours very s Sneer elyy Jack London Esq,, v/ J^t, .., / // /t~~- f 1216, Telegraph Avenue, ' /.. 1 California. U.S.A.

Letter to Jack London from Ruth Elbright Finley, Ficton Editor for The Scripps-McRae League publisher, dated November 30, 1914.
THE SCRIPPS-MCRAE LEAGUE EDITORIAL PRESS BUILDING, CLEVELAND November 30, 1914. If. Jack London Glen Ellen, California. Dear Sir: I understand from your publishers—The MacMillan Company—that the serial rights to your book THE MUTINTOF THE ELSINOR, are held by yourself. I should like very much to get a release on this story for the Scnpps-McRae League papers, a list of which I append to this letter. In using the story it would be run as one of our novels-a-week and would therefore have to be cut to about 20.000 words. For this privilege I would be willing to pay $200.00. Of course we advertise each story widely before publication. Hoping to hear from you favorably, and at your earliest convenience, I am, Vejy truly "*S, Fiction Editor. / List of Pabers: Cleveland Press Cleveland,0. Cincinnati Post Cincinnati,0.
