To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
In order to accomplish this latter aim the Government caused a popular vote to be taken on the question whether the Constitution should be so altered as to permit the traffic in intoxicants to be subject to control. There was a two-thirds majority in favour of control, and soon afterwards a scheme was formulated for making the n6 THE STATE AS DISTILLER.
manufacture of spirits entirely a State monopoly. This plan was started partly in the hope of checking drunken- ness and providing the people w...ith pure drink ; but undoubtedly a cause that was very largely responsible for its initiation was the hope of securing an abundant revenue.

Financially, yes ; so far as ensuring the purity of the spirits sold, also yes ; but for checking the consumption of strong drink it has been almost if not quite a failure. In saying this I am well aware that I express an opinion different from that of nearly every English writer on the subject, official and otherwise. Some at least of the data on which English writers have founded favourable opinions is partly unreliable and partly misleading.
