What reading level is A Treaty of Peace Between the United States And Spain book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
This was practically the same contribution by the natives to the support of the government.
Further, great revenue should come from opium and tax on Chinese admitted. The British opium commissioner decided in effect that the reported ill-effects of opium have been greatly exaggerated ; that it has not been a great injury to the Chinese as a nation, no more than spirits and tobacco have been to other countries. I have not the report at hand, but this is my impression. At all events the trade in ...it has not been suppressed and is a source of great revenue. In India, 7, 000, 000 rupees; in Hongkong, a small area, $286, 000 a year. To obtain this revenue by any import duty is impossible. Smuggling is too easy and the Chinese, the only consumers, too adroit. The farming sys- tem, selling by auction or by advertisement for public tenders the monopoly to the highest bidder, is the only method. For Manila and the adjoining district, $550, 000 was received for the privilege for three years, and it is probable that a large sum in addition was paid to some officials.
