mons and Gentiles to have done with
the unseemly fight, the bitterness and
enmity that have in the past undoubt-
eddy retarded progress.
Only a few years ago the majority
Of the Mormons would not engage in
business enterprises in which Gentle
capital was interested, or at least
were opposed theoretically to doing
So To-day there are many large en-
terprises in the city and throughout
the state in which the capital invest
ed is about equally divided.
On the site of Brigham Young's old
adobe tithing-house, for example.
! where the faithful were wont for
years to pour into the Golfers OF the
church one-tenth of all they made. is
being erected 100000 hotel. AL
though this is known most generally
as Mormon enterprise, as matter
of fact large part of the capital has
been furnished by Gentiles.
The non-Mormon residents of Salt
Lake City are coming to realize that
the heads of the Mormon church are
good business men and can be relied
upon to carry large undertakings
through to ultimate success. Owing
to this fact the Mormon people no
longer have any difficulty in securing
outside capital should they see fit to
seek it.
One of the most striking illustra-
| tions of the business commingling OF
Mormon and Gentle is to be found in
local sugar company which was
originally a Mormon enterprise.
The sugar trust desired to absorb
this company, as it had absorbed
many others, and went about it in the
same old way. The heads of the trust
soon discovered that they were deal
ing with a business organization
which was every bit as clever, eff
cient and strong as the trust itself,
and, in fact, could give the trust
some pointers in the line of shrewd
business methods.
| The trust agents also discovered
| that if they were to enjoy any of the
| profits of the magnificent business
which the Mormons had built up in
the sugar line, they would have to do
it on the Mormon basis and not on
| the sugar trust basis.
| Accordingly, the trust submitted a
proposition to the presiding bishop to
pay large price for certain part OF
the stock in the Utah company. The
purchase of this stock was coupled
with the express condition that the
sugar trust would in no wise inter.
| fere with the management of the com
pany or attempt to dictate its policy.
With this understanding the bishop
submitted the trusts proposition to
the Mormon stockholders, and suf'
ficient number to give the trust the
interest it sought sent in their stock
Only a few years ago the subject
of Mormonism protruded itself into
the social, business and civic life OF
the city. 1t was the burning question
everywhere, and feeling always ran
high.
This is all changed, for were it not
for the monumental temple of exquis'
tie architecture, the rounded dome of
the great tabernacle and the forbid
ding wall which surrounds the
grounds of the Mormon places of wor'
ship. it would be possible to remain
in Salt Lake City many days without
having the fact forcibly thrust home
that this is a Mormon stronghold.

The old Salt Lake City, the city
which Brigham Young founded, ruled
with an iron hand and loved because
he believed that it was ever to be the
stronghold of the church of the living
Cod, has passed never to return. In
its stead has come modern city,
young giant among the business CEN
tiers of the great west.
The fear of Mormonism, or, more
properly speaking, perhaps, the gen
eral conviction that the influence and
spirit of Mormonism were such as
were bound to retard progress, has
passed or is rapidly disappearing.
Although the Mormons have ever
strenuously maintained that they
were for everything that would bene-
fit the city and community generally,
it is true that their ideas of what
would bring this about were frequent
ly running counter to those OF the
Gentiles. This was bound to be the
case because the church looks at tenn
poral things through the spiritual
eye.
Although it is undoubtedly true that
the Mormon church ardently desires
the welfare of Salt Lake City and OF
the state of Utah, it is equally true
that progress in its real western sig
nificance did not strike Salt Lake City
until the people at large had become
convinced that the Mormon church
did not have quite so firm a grasp on
the affairs of state as it did In days of
it's early leaders.
Whatever the cause for the change
may be, there is no longer any doubt
that it has come, and that neither cap
ital nor people need longer avoid Salt
Lake City and Utah for fear of Nor
mon influence.
The change which has been
wrought is SO marked that the trav-
eler of to-day would recognize little of
the Salt Lake City with which he was
familiar ten years ago.
Formerly the lines of demarkation
in the business of the city between
Mormon and Gentle were very tightly
drawn. 1t was carried to such an ex-
tent that the Mormon stores were
the Gentle stores were patron1zed
solely by the Gentiles.
To-day it would be very difficult for
the visitor to tell whether he was in
a Mormon store or a Gentle store.
So far as appearances go Gentle and
saint do their trading just as they do
in any other city, namely, buy where
no rNIn Thorn
buy where they can buy the cheapest.
Doubtless sentiment would cause
many Mormons still to favor their
own tradespeople where things were
about equal, but clannishness is be-
coming less and less of a factor in the
business life of Salt Lake City.
It can safely be said that both the
Mormons and the non-Mormons are
pleased with this changed condition.
The Mormons certainly are, for they
are shrewd, sharp business people,
having in their church organization
one of the best business organizations
anywhere on earth.
This business organization realizes
through its heads that what is good
for Salt Lake City is good for the
worldly portion of Zion. And the
worldly portion of Zion is a tremen-
dously large proportion of the worldly
interests of Salt Lake City and of
Utah
And so it Is that in studying the
problem Of this city and of the state
as it is affected by Mormonism, one
cannot help being struck with the evil
