What reading level is The Negro in the District of Columbia book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:


Office-holding by negroes cannot be considered wholly as a local question, but what has been conceded to them at Washington is of interest in connection with the question of equality. This must also be viewed in a comparative light. The population of the United States by the census of 1890 was 62, 622, 250, of whom 30, 554, 370 were females, and 7, 470, 040 are of African descent. The total number of employes of the government at Washington is 23, 144, of whom 6105 are females, and between 2500
... and 3000 negroes, and these figures show that the percentage of negroes of the country holding office in Washington does not differ materially from the percentage of whites on the same basis. Taking the Interior Department, the branch of the govern- ment employing the greatest number of persons in Washing- ton, as a fair example of the whole system as far as the general government is concerned, it is found that of a total of 6120 employes in 1891 the negroes numbered 337, while in the departments of the District government of a total of not more than 3000 employes in the summer of 1892 1431 were negroes.
