What reading level is The Law of the Territories book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Is it because slavery is a "do- mestic institution?" Why then should not the will of the people control all other domestic institutions ? Is it because slaves are "mere property?" Why then not subject all other property, land included, to popular control ? Is it because the subject of slavery is an exciting topic among the people of the States, — because parties and sections have seized on it as a means of agitation, in and out of Congress, danger- ous to the tranquillity of the country, which ...can be checked only by placing the subject beyond the power of Congress and thus beyond the reach of parties ? The answer is, that Congress cannot abdi- cate its authority on the ground of expediency. Its duty is to use its authority to overcome difficulty and danger, not to recede before them. If it may give up one power, it may give up any or all. Nor can Congress delegate its power for the same reason. Trust power from its very nature cannot be dele- gated. It is given to be used ; and not to use it OF THE TERRITORIES.
