Excerpt from Journal of Social Science, Vol. 15: Containing the Transactions of the American Association; February, 1882; Saratoga Papers of 1881, Part II The Papers included in this number of the Journal of Social Science taken together with those which appeared in the Journal No. XIV, make up all the Saratoga Papers of 1881 which have been received from the authors in condition for printing. As some misapprehension may exist in regard to the publication of Papers by the Association, it may here' be said that all Papers engaged for the General Meeting of the American Social Science Association are so engaged with the understanding that they may be printed in the Journal of Social Science if the Council so decide if, there fore, the writers choose to publish their papers elsewhere, (to which the Council offers no Objection) it must be with the stipula tion that these papers may also be published in the Journal, at the option of the Council as to time of publication.
