Excerpt from Journal of Social Science, Vol. 1: Containing the Transactions of the American Association, Number XIV, November, 1881, Saratoga Papers of 1881

It is one Of the unwritten laws Of this Association that the Secretary, in his Annual Report, shall endeavor to satisfy the chronic demand for a definition Of Social Science and present a summary of What it has achieved or attempted during the previous vear. As you are all aware, this Report, (including the much desired definition), has come to be considered one Of the most interesting features Of our proceedings, and has awakened the general wish that our accomplished Secretary may retain his office for life, or during good behavior.

An incidental result of this accepted arrangement is that the President in selecting the theme Of his Opening address is limited only by the range of subjects within the domain of Social Science, as defined or to be defined, to-morrow, by the Secretary. Permit me, therefore, Without further preface, to invite your attention to a few Observations on certain defects in our methods of law making, and a brief survey of some suggested remedies.
