To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
His gentle but strong personality rousing no antagonisms, combined with the confidence in the man which it inspired, brought him to Congress, where he remained for seven terms, followed i6 by two terms as Governor of Ohio. Finally, he was called to the highest honor, and in 1896 he was elected President, the representative of the People of these United States. Truly was he the type of our very best citizenship. Belonging to a country governed by the people, he believed in the people, and sought... to know them, and to guide, rather than to force, national poHcy. I have hardly time to allude to the qualities which made him a successful politician in the true sense of that much-abused word, though they are all accounted for in the three words with which Hamilton Mabie defines strong, effectual life-qualities, — ** Balance, harmony, and restraint. " True are they of McKinley, if of any man. Balance of interests, of energies left its stamp in the lines of his face ; and the right adjustment which men recog- nized in him between the man and his opportunities, led to a harmony with men and things which was a marked characteristic of this man of peace ; and restraint, that is, patience, judgment, steadiness, were elements in his success and power, recognized by all.
