Letter from Janne Mattson Sjödahl, 10 March 1888
Salt Lake City . President Wilford Woodruff. Salt Lake City. Dear Brother, Having completed my translation, I thought it best to come up to the city myself in order to see br. A. W. Carlsson, whom you mention as the one to whom the manu- script will be submitted for perusal. I have now done so, and br. Carlsson has the ma- nuscript and promises to look it over and give you his opinion at an early date. I wish to say that I have been writing all the time with the view of having to superintend the printing. Consequently I have not revised the manuscript myself yet, as I thought there would be time to do that, a few pages at a time, before hand- ing it to the typesetters. It would therefore be more satisfactory to me, if you would
Letter from Arthur Stayner, 10 March 1888
Salt Lake City: . Prest Woodruff and Brethren of the Presidency. Dear Brethren: The difficulties which now beset the inauguration of the business I represent vary very considera- bly from the physical difficulties which have been met and overcome, and for help to overcome them I now earnestly appeal to you. I readily recognize, and I feel keenly, the difference in the circumstances of the true friends of the people before and after the commencement of the "Grand Steal". Heretofore the establishment of an industrial enterprise for the benefit of our people has been much more easily reached than it can possibly be at the present time, because, with the will the people's best friends had the means to assist with the lubricating element of money as well as influence and friendship. Now money is out of the question but influence and friendship and the power to use them remain. The element which has brought about this important change has dammed up the source and turned the channels and cur- rents of fertilizing means from where they could be used for prac- tical benefits, into courses barren of good results, and have thus partially paralysed the hand of material assistance, and now to keep as much as possible absolute control out of the hands of iminical and paralysing power seems to be the great desideratum; to do this I appeal to you for your help and counsel.
