Va.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Dear Sir:&#8211; Our attention has been called to the matter of no license in Jefferson county and I wish to advise you that we are employers of labor in Jefferson county operating the Virginia Ore Bank near Bakerton and you have our hearty co-operation in the movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I should like to see every saloon in the country close up. I believe it would be for the benefit of the laboring classes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We have no license in this Bedford Co. Penn. and are getting along very well without any saloons. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You have our best wishes and co-operation in the movement and hope you may be successful. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Very truly yours.<br>GEO.
