To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
For some time past the position of brewers and others who are largely interested in, and closely identified with, the liquor trade has been anything but an easy and pleasant one. It is far from being a comfortable and agreeable one now, and it is likely to become less and less enviable as time goes by. The tide of public opinion is steadily rising against the trade. It is a business into which it is almost impossible to induce anyone to go if he is not already connected with it, and the great m...ajority of those who are in it would gladly get out of it if they could conveniently do so. They are continually being harassed by legislation, and proposals for legislation, of a more and more restrictive character, while of recent years the increases in the taxation levied upon them have been large. Nor is the outlook for the future any brighter. Hitherto the House of Lords has saved them from some of the legislation which they have feared most. Now the power of that assembly to protect them has been very materially curtailed by the Parliament Act.
