To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
There are also three assistant secretaries in the department, and a counselor, who advises the President and Secretary of State in regard to questions of international law. The duties of the secretary of state fall into three groups: first, he is the custodian of the great seal and of the archives of the United States. In this capacity he receives the acts and resolutions of Congress, publishes them in certain papers, and preserves the originals. Under this head also fall the duties of counters...igning proclamations and impor- tant commissions of the President and of attaching thereto the great seal. In the second place, the secretary of state is the organ of communication between the national govern- ment and the state governments. Thus an application from the governor of a state for troops to suppress domestic vio- lence, or a request for the extradition of a criminal who has taken refuge in a foreign country, is made through the secre- tary of state. In the third place, the secretary of state is the organ of communication between the United States and foreign powers, that is, he is the minister of foreign affairs.
