To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Everything being styled as "fair in politics," the broad license, suffered by usage, in the methods and proce- dure of the "outs" against the "ins," goes even beyond the limitations of the judge-controlled ethics of courts of law; and the secret rankle of the one unpardonable crime that the "ins" are "in" and the "outs" are "out," accelerates the lowering standards of the contest. All ambition for lofty statesmanship in truth and principle, relegated to worse than secondary consideration, be- c...omes superseded by animus and sinister resolve for personal revenge and displacement. The canvassing is cloaked in cunningest plausibility of presentation sug- gestive of the brilliant, gifted criminal-lawyer type of mind, struggling on the wrong side to defeat the ends of justice. Moreover, in the heat of this splendid contest, devel- oped in the friction of partizan debate and fervor, the paramount interests of patriotism, welfare of country and individual, are overshadowed by the smaller aims of spite, envy, and personal ambition — ^not what is best or should be, but what can be put over for the cause of dispossession!
