To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
' ' Mr. Chamber- lain says there is a "population equal to that of the metropolis" — that is, between four and five millions — "which has remained constantly in a state of abject desti- tution and misery. ' ' Mr. Giffen is more moderate. The submerged class, accord- ing to him, comprises one in five of manual laborers, six in 100 of the popu- lation. Mr. Giffen does not add the third million which is living on the border line. Between Mr. Chamberlain's four millions and a half, and Mr. Giffen's... 1,800,000, I am content to take three millions as representing the total strength of the destitute army. Darkest England, then, may be said to have a population about equal to that of Scotland. Three million men, women and children, a vast despairing multitude in a condition nominally free, but really enslaved ; these it is whom we have to save. 2 The most trustworthy and authentic evidence of the deplorable con- dition of the masses of the Knglish people is found in the Final Report of the Royal Commission on Labor (quoted below), which was made to parliament in June, 1894, after a most searching and thorough investi- gation, extending over a period of more than two years.
