To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
715 263. The Agricultural Interest and the Com Laws. The Corn Law of 1689 had been successful in both its objects, for mauy years ; that of 1773 was intended to secure a food supply, either from home or abroad, at a steady price ; but Parliament reverted to the principle of promoting native pro- duction, in 1791, and gave an unhealthy stimulus to tillage for a time, with the result that landlords were threatened with ruin at the Peace. The Act of 1815 was passed on plausible grounds, but in the... interest of the landlords as a class, to the detriment of the consumers, and without controlling prices so as to encourage steady agricultural improvement. . . . 723 264. The Combination Laws. The working classes not only failed to obtain redress under the existing laws, but suffered from the passing of a new Combination Act in a time of political panic, and despite protests against its injustice. Friendly Societies continued to exist ; but associations for trade purposes were liable to prosecution ; though this was not systematic- ally enforced, an intense sense of injustice was roused.
