At the annual meeting of the Minnesota

 proposed embargo in this memorial. 



MEMORIAL TO ROBERT DOUGLAS. 



As a memorial to the late Eobert 

 Douglas, of Waukegan, who first grew 

 coniferous evergreens in this country 

 for commercial purposes, it has been 

 suggested by Thomas A McBeth, of 

 Springfield, O., that the nurserymen of

 take the initiative in the matter. The 

 Douglas nursery recently has passed out 

 of the hands of the Douglas family.

 business done by it is purely interstate. 

 Therefore, a corporation of one state 

 need not be licensed in another to enable
