On a blue field, appears the state seal. In the center
of the seal is a beehive, the state emblem, with a sego lily growing
on either side. The sego lily stands for peace. The state motto
"Industry" means steady effort. A national flag shows that Utah
supports the United States. The eagle stands for protection in peace
and war. The date 1847 represents the year that Brigham Young led

the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter day Saints, also know as The
Mormons. The date 1896 represents the year that Utah gained admission
to the Union of the United States. |
