Eyes are drawn across the brook-carved val- ley toward the Holy Mount where the temple stood in antiquity. Reflecting upon sacred events that unfolded in the Holy City is the natural result of standing on the Mount of Olives, particularly certain events in the life of Jesus and the ministries of Melchizedek, Abraham, Isaac, Isaiah, Lehi, Jeremiah, Peter, and Paul. And as a result of Orson Hyde’s ascent up the Mount to dedicate Palestine, Latter-day Saints include him in this select group.

  • The Sequel to the Roberts/Smith/Talmage Affair
    DISCUSSION CONTINUED: THE SEQUEL TO THE ROBERTS/SMITH/TALMAGE AFFAIR JEFFREY E. KELLER FEW CHAPTERS IN twentieth-century Mormon thought are more thought-pro- voking than the events following B. H. Roberts' efforts to publish what he considered his greatest work, that synthesis of science and religion, The Truth, the Way, the Life. Much of this story, which involved the principal molders of modern church orthodoxy, is now well known through the fine recent study by Richard Sherlock, " 'We Can See No Advantage to a Continuation of the Discussion: The Roberts/Smith/Talmage Affair."1 Newly uncovered materials, however, offer a new dimension to our understanding of this significant episode. These come in large measure from the papers of the son of one of the principals in the controversy—Sterling Talmage, who was almost in the center of things from the start. When B. H. Roberts submitted his magnum opus in 1929, a publication committee composed of five members of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles was assigned to read the manuscript and make recommendations. This com- mittee rejected Roberts' work for his speculations on the existence of "pre- Adamites" or races of man-like beings who had lived before the time of Adam.2 At least one member of the Twelve (and, as well, of the reading committee), Apostle Joseph Fielding Smith, interpreted the committee's decision as an important affirmation of the superiority of Mormon doctrine (as he under- stood it) over the theories of men, indeed as a vindication of Smith's general antagonism to science. He chose to publicize this perceived support in a JEFFREY E.

  • William Jennings September 13, 1823 – January 15, 1886
    William Jennings September 13, 1823 – January 15, 1886 William Jennings Mayor of Salt Lake City and Utah’s first millionaire. William Jennings was born in Yardley, England to a family which was in the butchering business and a very wealthy family. William left school at the age of eleven and became an assistant to his father. William immigrated to the United States in 1847. He worked as a butcher in New York, Ohio, and Missouri and had a lot of financial problems. He married Jane Walker, a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, on July 2, 1851 in St. Louis, Missouri. He and his wife moved to Salt Lake City, Utah in 1852. Shortly after arriving in Salt Lake City, William was baptized into the LDS Church. Soon after his baptism he married Priscilla Paul as a plural wife. William opened a butchery and tannery in Salt Lake City and later founded a successful business. In 1864, he had become so successful that he constructed an expensive building, the Eagle Emporium, and used it as the headquarters of his businesses. The state of his business at that time made William a leading merchant west of the Mississippi River. Eagle Emporium was sold to the LDS Church and became a central component of Zions Cooperative Mercantile Institution (ZCMI). His mansion, The Devereaux, is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. William became the vice-president of the Utah Central Railroad Company after helping organize it in 1869 and became the president of the Utah Southern Railroad Company.

  • Thomas Taylor and Mormon Frontier Economic Enterprise
    "My Father's Business": Thomas Taylor and Mormon Frontier Economic Enterprise Brent D. Corcoran SHORTLY AFTER MORMON PIONEERS ARRIVED IN UTAH in July 1847 Brigham Young planned for an anticipated population explosion by exploring the region and locating sites which could support new settlements and in- dustries. Parley P. Pratt of the Quorum of Twelve Apostles lead one of the first such expeditions to southern Utah, charting Young's "corridor" to the Pacific Ocean of prospective settlement sites. Near present-day Cedar City, Pratt's party discovered a huge iron deposit, which they named Iron Mountain, containing some two million tons of iron ore. The deposit has been described by one authority as "the most remarkable deposit of iron ore discovered on [the American] continent."1 Church leaders believed the providential discovery was the begin- ning of an inheritance: an industry to support the influx of new converts and a sure means of securing Mormon economic independence. Apostle Wilford Woodruff, on a mission in Great Britain in January 1850, received word to "gather up all the Saints in the Eastern Country and bring them to Zion to Esstablish Iron foundries."2 England was the world center for the iron trade at the time, and modern iron-making techniques and ma- chinery were developed in Staffordshire. Mormon elders in England championed the cause of iron with special zeal, touting the industry at English mission conferences and in the columns of the mission paper The 1. J. S.

  • Race, the Priesthood, and Temples
    13 Race, the Priesthood, and Temples W. Paul Reeve HE HISTORY OF THE RACE-BASED PRIESTHOOD AND TEMPLE RESTRICTIONS within The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is best understood as Tan evolution away from racially open priesthood and temples toward segregated priesthood and temples and then back again. This evolution is difficult to under- stand without first understanding the power of white privilege in nineteenth - century American politics, economy, and society and the corresponding effort among the white Protestant majority to deny the blessings of whiteness and therefore social respectability to Mormons. Even though the majority of Mormons were white in the nineteenth century, outsiders persistently suggested that they did not act white or look white and that they were more like other marginalized racial groups—red, black, or yellow—than white. The scientific and medical communities even sug- gested that Mormon polygamy was spawning a new, degraded race. Within this context, the Church moved unevenly across the course of the nineteenth century toward whiteness, an evolution that came at the expense of fellow black Saints. In 1978 the Church reversed course and returned to its racially universalistic roots. 9 A racially expansive vision of redemption through Jesus Christ for all of God’s children marked the early decades of the Church’s existence. One early leader, William Wines Phelps, wrote in 1835 that “all the families of the earth . should get redemption . in Christ Jesus,” regardless of “whether they are descendants of Shem, Ham, or Japheth.” Another publi- cation declared that all people were “one in Christ Jesus .
