To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Porto Rico is half as far away. It is certainly a fair question for the inhabitants of Hawaii and of Porto Rico to ask what benefit they obtain from a policy which will arbitrarily confine their trade with this country to vessels carrying the flag of the United States. Our navi- gation laws have their origin in a conception of national advantage which affords justification for them from our own point of view; but I submit that the application of such laws to islands lying 1, 500 miles and 3, 00...0 miles away from our nearest port may wear a very different aspect to the inhab- itants of those islands from what it wears to us. Similarly, the tariff question is a question of vital impor- tance from the same point of view. These islands are not now manufacturing centers, nor are they very likely to become so. It is evident, therefore, that the tariff for the Philippines and the tariff for Porto Rico might easily be one thing, if framed from the point of view of the islands, or another thing if framed from the point of view of the United States.
