Of tbs courtesy the kndness and the hospitality Of
the citizens Of st. Paul.
The reading OF the resolutions was frequent
ly interrupted by applause. DR.. Davis arose
TO second the motions for their adoption. No
report OF DR.. Davis remarks, no matter how
accurate, would do jHstice to his feeling and
earnest address. He commenced by saying that
he did not know why he had been called upon
unless 1t was expected that he had more to
| cay than merely second the motion. He was
not one OF those who believed in taking up
the time of the association in discussing and
| adopting complimentary resolutions whose
principal merit was the language in which
| they were written. There were, however,
| occasions when resolutions of this character
represented more than fulsome words. This was
one OF these occasions. Our annual meetings
have not been and cannot be entirely devoid Of
socisl pleasures. We meet here from every
portion OF the country. We form acquaint.
ances that we could not do in any other way,
aud by contact we aid In destroy
ing sectional prejudice, correct local errors and
thus unity and greatly enhance
the pleasure Of all. Each one brings to the
whole the experience of his locality, and thus
We learn more In regard to our vast country.
| have been present a. these annual meetings
OF our association in sturdy New England, in
the commercial capital OF the nation, in the
seml-tropical South, in the great interior Of
this great country, on the far western shores
of the Pacific coast, and in all these sections
OF our common country, We have been received
with open hearts and hands, but nowhere on
this broad continent have we experienced such
boundless, such generous, such unlimited
hospitality as we have received here in st.
Paul, and the people of this vast Northwest.
Tremendous applause While according
this praise 70 st, Paul, we do not forget the
princely entertainment of the ladies and citi
Gems OF saltwater, which, in point of splendor,
has rarely, If ever, been equaled, and never
surpassed in the history of this association.
Words are too feeble to express all we feel
and II noise could portray it better he would
shout with voice that world might hear.
He most cordially seconded the motion for
the adoption OF the resolutions. The rcsoiu-
tisns were then adopted with a Loud and
long continued applause], unanimity that
showed plainly that they were not meant as
an idle and unnecessary compliment
MEETING IN WASHINGTON.
DR.. Davis offered the following, which was
adopted:
Resolued, That after the next annual meeting the
permanent interests and usefulness Of this associa
tiOn would be best promoted by again holding every
second meeting In Washington, as its home Oh
common national ground and not as invited guests,
while each alternate nesting may be held in such
section of the Union would be most useful in
promoting the social organization In all parts Of
our country.
