What reading level is Speech of Hon Delos R Ashley of Nevada On Reconstruction Delivered in the H book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It also discourages the enact- ment of laws in the South or elsewhere requiring a long residence of persons coming from other States as a prerequisite to voting. Sound in principle, it has a happy adaptation to settle the differences, quiet the passions, and dispel the prejudices now standing in our way.
As to the other proposition which passed this House for basing representation upon pop- ulation, exclusive of any races the members of which might be excluded from voting, let me say that, putt...ing aside the question of its jus- tice, there was never any possibility that it could be embodied in the Constitution by the approval of the requisite number of States or could even pass this Congress. If the mem- bers of this House did not know this, they ought to have known it. I knew, as many others did, that we were only wasting our time in the dis- cussion and passage of such a proposition. If the theories broached in favor of immediate and universal negro suffrage are even true, what then?
