Letter from Ephraim H. Nye, 1 June 1898
President Wilford Woodruff,
Salt Lake City, Utah.
Daer Brother;
On my return from the general conferance at Salt Lake City, we
held our conferance in this city; April 17th and 18th. Quite a number
came from Oakland San Jose and Sacramento, and the meetings were well a
attended during both ^days^ of our conferance. The spirit of the Lord rested
upon the Elders, the Saints were instructed and the strangers haeard the
the Gospel.
After our Priesthood meeting, and the buisness affairs of the con-
ferance where adjusted I went to Los Angeles and there we held another
two day's conferance, April 24, & 25 which was another Grand sucsess.
I then visited San Diego and there we organized a branch, a Ladies re-
lief society and a primary association. There are about 60 members in
the branch which would have been organized some time ago but for the l
lack of suitable material of which to form a presidency. It is now in
good condition and ^has^ bright prospects before it.
The Los Angeles branch is becoming thrifty and strong; at this
lanst monthly Priesthood meeting there was 19 members of the local Pt
Priesthood president. They have a fine ladies Relief society, a mutual-
Improvment association, that has a weekoly attendance of 60 or 70 per-
sons, many of whom are investigators. They have a good sunday School
and on the occasion of my last visit they had 29 little children and
larger boys and girls and Teachersa, about 50 all told. We cannot speak
so waell of San Francisco the middle and northern parts of the state
as of the southern portion. Why we do not know. The Elders are work-
ing hard and faithfully but an indifferance seems to exist and as a
consequence progress is slow. Some of the counties in the great wheat
producing parts of the state we have had to adbandon for the presant
on account of the terrible drouth that prevails all through that
portion of the state as so many of the people have had to leave for
other parts in order to make a living for the season. Of course it is t
the working classaes as a rule that are our best friends, and they a^are^
the ones that have had to seek employment else where.
On my return from the southern part of the mission I
went to San Jose and had an interview with Brother Keller the author
