To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Or, we may put it that the Referendum appeals to interests not ideas, and that it, therefore, does not strengthen those idealistic qualities in the community upon which progress depends. The legislative function does not always lead opinion, but it leads in practical opinion — that is, it makes up its mind to act perhaps after public opinion is in favour of acting, but before public opinion knows how to act. It is not without i^ood reason that the anti-social interests to-day, frightened by the... criticism levelled at their position, and now aware that under our present con- stitution legislation — and, consequently, social change — is easy, are beginning to advocate a Referendum as a means of crippling the power of Parliament and of hampering the expression of the common will. The experience of Switzerland is quite conclusive on this point. * There is another kind of objection to the Referendum which will not be treated lightly by the thoughful politician. Direct Democracy must bring primary instincts more into play.
