To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The law-making power doubtless has passed the laws, but in many cases, if not in all, the law has simply embodied the best judgment of the city. Again, if it is true that local elections have been merely incidents in the political struggle for the control of the State, so it is also true that the city, dur- ing this whole interval, has been subject to the joint control of its own citizens and of the Legislature. The consequences of legislative interference have been both good and bad ; the resu...lt is the complex effect of many causes. It is not important for my purpose to distinguish between these causes and to apportion to each its efficacy. It is enough if I have been able to show, as to the form of the city government, that improvement is clearly discernible during the forty years under review. The case is not hopeless if so great a population, in the face of every conceivable difficulty, has been able to make distinct progress in the political science of city government. Nevertheless, it ought to be said that the constant interference of the Legislature in the details of the city government is a source of almost unmixed harm.
