To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
When a terri- tory has a population equal to the number requir- ed by the apportionment of representatives among the states for one representative, it may, on adopt- ing a republican form of government, be admitted into the Union, by act of Congress. It is thus that several of the states, once having '■ been under territorial government, have become members of the Union. Ohio was admitted in 1802; Indiana in 1816; Illinois in 1818; Missis- sippi in 1817; Alabama in 1819; Missouri in 1820; Michi...gan in 1836 ; Louisiana in 1812 ; Arkansas la 1836. All these were once subject to territo- rial government. Sect. IV. — The United States shall guaranty to every state in this Union a republican form of government, and shall protect each of them against invasion ; and on ap' j^ation of the legislature j or of the executive^ (when the legislature cannot be convened,) agaitist domestic vio- lence. It was by virtue of this section that Rhode Island, in lo42, called upon the President for aid in suppressing the "Dorr Insurrection," which then took place.
