To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
If, however, the executive of the government were charged with a duty, the power of appointment and removal would give him the means of carrying out the people's will. (^Should not our city government then be erected on the lines of responsibility and efficiency? Otherwise, what does in avail? There is, however, in every community a class of people who oppose conservatism to progress. They lack confidence and courage. They will not brush cobwebs off their house lest the roof should fall. They l...ack the quality of enterprise that magic power which, like sentiment and enthusiasm in the time of war, sweeps everything before it; which multiplies the material resources of a commu- nity by infusing into the body-politic a soul and spirit and in- vesting it with the breath of life, (it is a force which, like the genius of Hamilton, touches the dead corpse of civic pride and it springs to its feet! ) San Francisco is situated on the edge of the earth; so far away that our own Joaquin Miller has said that a man might drop dead and God would not know it.
