To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are more people that live in Roxbury now than there were ten years ago ; there were more ten years ago than there were twenty years ago, and I suppose that in the next ten years there will be a like increase in population. It costs a certain sum to run a car a mile. It has cost on the horsecar system of our road, during the months of Feb- ruar}'- and March, 28 cents a mile. Now, you cannot run a horsecar five miles for the same expense that you can run a car a mile, and if your increase i...n population is at the end of the line, of course it costs more year by year to carry it, and of course, in order to do it at all, the cars must be more and more crowded. Well, now, what is the relief from such a condition of 19 things, for that is the interesting question ? Why, the relief from that condition of things can only come in one of three ways. It may come in a reduction of expenses, if that be possible. But everybody who knows anything about the condition of the labor market and the cost of grain and the cost of all those things that enter into the sum total of expenses knows that that alternative is not worthy of any consideration.
