AMONG the MORMONS a Survey of Current Literature Jeep/ten W. JhatAifr AMONG THE MORMONS A Survey of Current Literature l;7Ol is destined to be remembered as a year of indelible significance in Mormondom. Within a two-month period early in the year, stories about the Church twice achieved front-page status. During March the discovery of a 137-year-old document threatened to renew the succession arguments between the LDS and the RLDS. Then in May, the LDS First Presidency's statement on the MX missile system produced a myriad of provocative editorial comments. Of the two events, the latter had greater impact. The president of the Organization of American Historians, William Appleman Williams (in a 5 September 1981 Nation cover story), characterized the Mormon statement on MX and the arms race as a truly radical action. For Williams the Church had displayed "a very shrewd understanding of the kind of national power that can grow out of organizing a relatively small number of people in a specific region." He con- cluded that "they comprehend the politics of demography and ecology at least as well as any other group in contemporary America." Of course, other writers had widely differing opinions. Early in 1982, a more personal struggle erupted within the Church that Kenneth L. Woodward aptly characterized in Newsweek as "Apostles vs. Histo- rians." This controversy revolve around the "methods and motives of LDS scholars who attempt 'objective' histories of the church," and "place what are supposed to be divinely inspired church doctrines in a relevant social and historical context." Woodward believed the conflict was a "long way from being settled, but the scholars may have the advantage. If ... faith in Mormonism means faith in the Church's history, they would seem to have the edge over their adversaries." In reflecting on this latest "newsworthy" event, one recalls that when Alvin R. Dyer announced "the Church's exciting new reorganization of its historical department under the direction of the general authorities in 1972," he foresaw a "truer picture of the past" emerging, an "unexpurgated inspirational history" in which the "intimate images of the early Church" would prove useful aids7 "to our appreciation of the present." By making the Church's archives and history more accessible, he announced, the "historian can view the development of a man's thought or of an organization's growth and understand how ideas are formed, developed, and brought into action." {Ensign, Aug. 1972, pp. 59,61) Some believe that recent events have shown this to be an unrealistic aspira- tion. Even so, several Mormon historians during the past decade have distin- guished themselves through their responsiveness both to the concerns of the Church hierarchy and the standards of fellow scholars. One can only hope that this tradition of responsible access to Church archives will be allowed to con- tinue. If not, most of the scholarly work acknowledged in these pages may cease. 118 GENERAL Collins, William P. "The Baha'i Faith and Mormonism." World Order 15 (Fall 1980/Winterl981): 33-45. Esplin, Fred.

  • December 1979
    PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE We need your help. For years now, the Milo Andrus Family Organization has operated, for the most part, on money submitted by sub- scribers to the Recorder. A subscription to the Recorder for one year amounts to $6.00. This is not enough to finance such a lication and pay the expenses of the genealogical research. We need more money. Surely we have Andrus's with extra "bucs" who could supplement our financial resources with some generous contributions. We know we can't "take it with us." And what better way to spend it than to ferret out the names of our ancestors who are undoubtedly waiting for their temple work to be done. We plead with any of you who have money you could contribute to the Organization to do so. We assure you, it will be well spent. If any of you have ideas about how to generate additional funds, we would appreciate hearing from you. Pooling our resources and working together will be the key to success in our research program. Write to: Alyn B. Andrus, President 64 S. 3rd E. Rexburg, Idaho 83440 Sharon Long, Treasurer Route #1 Box 77 Shelley, Idaho 83274 Let us hear from you. And thanks for your support. Sincerely yours, Alyn B. Andrus MILO ANDRUS, MISSIONARY, PIONEER AND COLONIZER (PART II) by Hyrum L. Andrus Part I of this history of Milo Andrus concludes with his appointment to lead the last immigrant company from Mormon Grove to Salt Lake City, beginning in August, 1855. Since its publication the compiler of this history has found four additional documents which pertain to Milo's life to this point that should be included here before continuing the general history of his life.

  • St. Louis Luminary: the Latter-Day Saint Experience at the Mississippi River, 1854–1855
    St. Louis Luminary: The Latter-day Saint Experience at the Mississippi River, 1854–1855 Susan Easton Black he St. Louis Luminary, an LDS newspaper printed in St. Louis, was Tshort lived but is a key to chronicling the status of the Church on the American frontier in 1854 and 1855. Although it was only one volume, the newspaper contained fifty-two issues, each spanning four pages in length with each page divided into five columns. This translates into approximately twenty-six hundred single-spaced pages on 8½" x 11" paper. From the first issue on Wednesday, November 22, 1854, to the last issue on Saturday, December 15, 1855, its masthead proclaimed the paper a “light [shining] in darkness and the darkness comprehendeth it not,” a refer- ence to the gospel being published in the Luminary in the “gentile” city of St. Louis. A new book, The Best of the St. Louis Luminary, gives an in-depth history of the newspaper and its contents, and includes a DVD of scans of the entire volume of the newspaper in a searchable format. This article is excerpted from that book. Because of the years in which this newspaper was printed, it played a significant role in the national discussion of polygamy, which had not been publicly announced until 1852.1 The paper printed an unrelenting defense of polygamy against a backdrop of exaggerated reports and sensational claims that stemmed from the halls of Congress and from eastern newspapers. Editor Erastus Snow did not hesitate to confront politicians, newspaper col- umnists, or even the president of the United States on the issue.
