To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The new frontier with its new difficulties will produce its own aspirations and efforts. Let us judge these as we will, it is im- possible to overlook the hazard involved, and the change from comparatively stable to unstable equilib- rium in this part of the world. If this is true of the expansion of the home fron- tiers, It Is hardly less so of the ventures overseas. The Tripolitan acquisition is comparatively safe, with friendly powers on either side and the desert behind, although its econom...ic possibilities are for the present far from reassuring. Opinions differ as to whether it will ultimately be self supporting, but none think it can be so now or soon. Italy can hardly be indif- ferent to this consideration, but as always, the ques- tion is decided on other than economic grounds. In Asia the situation is less reassuring. A station there, especially on the mainland, must be precarious and costly, unless it expands to large proportions and becomes self supporting and self defended.
