[George Q. Cannon] I found a cipher dispatch from President [Wilford] Woodruff asking my opinion concerning the proposition which had been made to elect Dr. [James E.] Talmage President of the University of Utah and to have the Church University suspend for the present, and the Church academies act as feeders for the University. I telegraphed a reply favoring the plan.
