To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Hindoos and the Chinese were civilized when we were savages. They had great cities, highly organized and powerful governments, literatures, philosophies, polished manners, considerable di- vision of labor, large commerce, and elaborate arts: when our ancestors were wandering bar- barians, living in huts and skin tents, not a whit further advanced than the American Indians. While we have progressed from this savage state to Nineteenth Century civilization, they have stood still. If progress ...be the result of fixed laws, inevitable and eternal, w^hich impel men forward, how shall we account for this?" Evidently Mr. George believes that progress is the result of fixed laws inevitable and eternal which impel men forward. It is upon this point that I want to be clearly understood. I hold that progress is not the result of fixed and designed laws ; that it is the result of en- vironment ; it is the result of the phj'sical conditions under which w^e exist; that where individuality is recognized, where there is an incentive for individuality, for individual progress, where that individual progress is in some manner compensated, where the incentive is greatest for progress ; there we find that progress is made.
