It suggests a satirical and simple proposal to the problem starving Ireland faced: the lack of food to feed the people.
Of course, the entire modest proposal was that parents eat and sell their children as food and the idea was meant as satire, meaning to be considered with a grain of salt and not seriously (kind of like a really dark joke).
''Modest'' means that the proposal was obvious and simple in the eyes of the author Jonathan Swift but not necessarily in the eyes of others. ''Proposal'' means the general answer to the problem Swift was answering.
Hope this helps! :)
Not sure what your question is, but here is some information about it:

- it started with the capitalization of the main word in the sentence and then Capitalisation of all Substantives was introduced

The U.S. government signed the Second Treaty of Laramie and pushed Indians onto more remote reservations.
Explanation:
For much of the United States' period of westward expansion, white settlers' attempt to claim plots of land were met with fierce and sometimes violent resistance from indigenous peoples. This resistance intensified in the latter half of the 19th century as the US federal government repeatedly signed and violated treaties with various Plains tribal leaders. Most prominent among these were the Sioux Indians, of which the Lakota are a subgroup. The treaty of Fort Laramie in 1868 established the 60-million-acre Great Sioux Reservation and created agencies to represent the federal government among each tribe. So, the consequences therefore, if the Lakota stayed on the reservation and refrained from attacking white settlers, the Treaty of Lamarie will apply. Thank you.
As in so many mystery novels, Roger Ackroyd is set in a small, isolated community where everybody knows everybody else. The isolated, close-knit setting 1) suggests that the criminal is someone who everybody knows, and 2) creates a paranoid, suspenseful mood, since the criminal is hiding a big secret from their neighbors.

Answer:
Satanta's speech is affected by the humble tone by making it sound respectful to the commissioners. This is also important since he says that he will not hide anything from them.
