What reading level is Speeches of J B Foraker 1869 1917 volume 2 book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

Many other objections might be made, but I shall mention only one more, probably the most serious of all.
We could survive all the evils that would likely result on account of the objections already men- tioned, if thev should be overruled and there were no others; for none of them would be vital in char- acter, and in time we might and w r ould find some way to correct evils that might arise; both those which are foreseen a...nd those which are unforeseen; but this proposed change would be attended, I fear, with far more serious consequences than any yet pointed out.

They, therefore, pro- vided for a popular Government to be conducted, not by the people directly acting in its conduct, but by representatives of the people so acting— repre- sentatives chosen by the people, because of their supposed character and qualifications for such serv- [21] £>7° ice— all sworn to sustain the Constitution of the State, and the Nation and all the laws of the Country.
