got our Second Endowments. Also my brother George and my wife, Elizabeth's, who are dead. This ended our temple work for today."34 After this work was done they visited friends in Salt Lake, then took the "Dummy Line" to Centerville where they stayed with friends and heard Lorenzo Snow and Joseph F. Smith. On Sunday morning, 12 December 1897, Bishop Turner returned to Salt Lake to continue working in the temple. Monday, he took the list of names to the temple for whom he wished to do the baptisms on Tuesday. For the rest of the week, Brother Turner worked in the temple every day. His journal entry for Friday summed up his feelings: "We have enjoyed our labors at the temple very much together. It has been quite a treat to us all for which privilege we thank the Lord for the favors granted unto us weak Mortals."35 On 16 August 1897, President Richard Fry, in his stake conference address, told the members that in order to go to the temple, a person must be an honest tithe payer and attend the duties of his priesthood quorum. He requested that the people who had recommends to be signed should come in person and not send a substitute. President Fry stated he wanted to question each one personally for a recommend.36 Church Survey In May 1894, The Contributorprinted an article called "Homes in Zion." In it is a questionnaire that was sent to stake presidents. There seemed to be a problem with families moving away from the Territory. They often gave the excuse that the stakes of Zion were becoming so crowded that it was necessary to move where the land was unoccupied. The arguments concerning overcrowding appear to have had no foundation in fact. On the contrary, it appears that most of the stakes needed to be strengthened by more people instead of being weakened by people moving away. The questions asked were as follows: 1. Is your stake overcrowded? If not, what inducements does it present to young, energetic, and thrifty men who desire homes, to settle and remain within its limits? 2. How many families can the portion of country under your supervision yet accommodate? 3. At what price can reasonably good farming land be purchased in your stake? Is there any government land that can be reclaimed still unoccupied? 4. What occupations yield the richest financial returns in your stake? The answers of many stake presidents were also printed in The Contributor including the reply from Richard Fry: PRESIDENT RICHARD FRY of Morgan Stake Morgan City, April 5, 1894 THE CONTRIBUTOR CO. GENTLEMEN: All our tillable land is occupied. For fifteen years families and young people about to marry have moved out to Bear Lake, Star Valley and Unitah 50
