To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
Then it was remembered that for upwards of thirty years the cities of Cahfornia had been determining for themselves what municipal officers should be chosen, how they should be chosen and what powers they should exercise. California was a pioneer in municipal home rule and the system had worked pretty much to everybody's satis- faction. Inasmuch, however, as counties have much more intimate relations with the state government it seemed impracticable to allow them quite so large discretion as th...e cities, in determining the powers they should enjoy. And so, the California amend- ment gives the people of the county freedom to determine the form and detail of the county or- ganization, subject to the proviso that each of the necessary county officers such as sheriff, district attorney, etc. , must be maintained to exe- cute the state law within the county. Members of the county board of supervisors must be elected, but not necessarily by districts. All other county officers, except the superior court judges, may be either elective or appointive in a manner set forth in a county charter.
