Slovaks of Hungary, Slavs and Panslavism

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. Number will run wellnigh to four hundred thousand. To obtain an even approximately correct count is impossible, for the reason that our census does not classify Slovaks separately as such, and because, furthermore, the popu lation is constantly fluctuating. It may be stated without fear of contradiction, that prob ably no other class of people travel to and fro as much as the Slovaks. Steamship companies find them very profitable patrons.
