To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Spain owns the Phillipine Islands with the spacious harbor of Manilla, and about one hundred islands of the Caroline Group. The Dutch Netherlands have long held naval or trading stations in Java, Sumatra, Borneo and New Guinea. Portugal owns the Ladrone Inlands with the commodious harbor of Guam, a well known resort for American whale- ships. Thus it will be seen that the principal European nations have already secured the strongest strategic points in the Pacific Ocean, where trading, coaling ...and naval stations have been or can be located; while the United States does not possess a solitary coaling station beyond her coast line, and is already flanked by strong French, German and English stations, where in case of war SHE WOULD BE COMPELLED TO SEEK THE PRIVILEGE OF COALING HER SHIPS.
