Excerpt from Report of the Twenty-Ninth Annual Meeting of the American Bar Association: Held at St. Paul, Minnesota, August 29, 30 and 31, 1906 And in extending this welcome to you in behalf of the Bar of Minnesota it may not be out of place to call your attention to the fact that the heartiness of our welcome is not indicated alone by these mere words of mine, which are comparatively commonplace. The interest of -the lawyers of this state in your coming will be actually demonstrated this week. It will be demonstrated by the interest and assistance which our State Bar will show and give to you in your meetings and by the carrying out of the plans which we have arranged for the largest and most successful meeting and dinner ever held by the American Bar Association. We have tried to have every thing prepared in advance for your comfort and pleasure. I congratulate you upon holding your meeting this summer in this beautiful climate. We did not have to arrange the weather. Gentlemen, we have this sort of weather all the year around, it is never too hot or too cold here, but always clear and balmy and comfortable.
