What reading level is Reconstruction Speech of Hon Geo H Williams Delivered At Portland Oregon book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Congress could not do this as to the Johnson Governments without endangering the honor and peace of the nation, and the lives and safety of the Union men of the South.
When the Constitutional amendment was rejected by the South, it became necessary for Congress to take other steps, and after mature deliberation the Military Reconstruction Bill was ])assed over the Presi- dent's veto. This bill was intended to give the people of the South ])eace and protection. It provides that it shall be the... duty of the military authorities of the nation in the rebel States " to protect all persons in their rights of person and property, to suppi-ess insurrection, disorder and violence, and to punish or cause to be punished all disturbers of the public peace and criminals 5" and it further provided that under military protec- tion all male citizens above the age of 21 years, with the exception of a few leading traitors, shall freely participate in the reorganization of the State Governments. I have long been of the opinion that the great blun- der in reconstruction was the atteuipt of the President to set up civil authority amid the fiery passions and battle smoke of civil war, instead of temporary military governments.
