To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
But in addition to this general competency to judge, he may, in view of his explorations in Provincial territory during the last thirty years, reasonably claim to have had better opportunities of forming trustworthy and reliable opin- ions on this interesting and important subject than any other man in Canada, with the single exception, perhaps, ef Dr. Bell, Assistant Director of the Geologi- cal Survey of Canada. Having thus shown my title to be coixsidered a fairly competent authority, and th...at I have also had exceptionally good opportunities of seeing, if not know- ing, much that it is needful should be seen and known upon the subject, it is now desirable, if not imperatively necessary, that I should place in as strong a light as possible the vast and overwhelming importance of "power." In attempting to point out the great and rapidly increasing importance of "power in general" to mankind, I wish it to be understood that the word " power " as thus used is not intended to apply to or include " muscular power," which not only man but every living creature possesses in a greater or less degree, but to the " working power " (sometimes called mechanical) afforded by other " physical forces/' more particularly gravitation and heat, and which may be directly or indirectly obtained from water, wind and fuel or steam, and substituted for muscular-power, or labor of men and animals.
