What reading level is Speech of Truman Smith of Connecticut On the Nebraska Question Delivered in T book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
I want the honorable chairman to stand up here and tell us whether, if the legislative assembly were to send an act here sanctioning polygamy, he would let it stand a single hour? On th« contrary, would he not seize a pair of tongs and thrust it out of yonder window ?
But, Mr. President, let us trace this matter a little further ; let us consider what would be the modus operandi of the singular principle, annun- ciated in the amendment, in reference to the polygamous relations of Utah. If they ...may_ in- troduce polygamy in their Territorial condition, if this is one of the relations which they are per- fectly free to establish, and if Congress cannot gain say it, then I say Utah can knock for ad- mission into the Union, and must be received, though she be covered all over with this moral leprosy. We must admit Brigham Young with his forty wives! Nay, more! Brigham might, and pro'bably would, be elected one of the Sena- tors from the new State: has the honorable chairman considered whether he is to bring hie forty wives to the Seat of Government ; and if so, I would ask in what part of the city is he to establish his harem ?
