"Brigham Young’s dream when he arrived in the Great Salt Lake Valley was that the Mormons could be self-sufficient. He established home industries and businesses and asked church members to patronize them. But as often happens, reality outpaced the dream. The California gold rush, the Utah War, the stagecoach, the telegraph line, the Pony Express, and finally the railroad in 1869 linked Utah more closely to the rest of the nation. Despite the ties established in the nineteenth century, in 1900 Utah retained a residue of insular characteristics that reflected its religious heritage, its earlier experiments with economic separatism and self-suffi ciency, and its remoteness from the nation’s economic, political, and cultural centers of power."
