To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The Farmers' Alliance, of historic fame, was an almost spontaneous uprising that swept the West from its poUtical moor- ings. The outraged American had turned to his natural first weapon. He had organ- ized a political party to right by legislation the injustices that oppressed him. Reorgan- ized into the People's party (quickly changed in common speech into the Populists) this movement once attained to six or seven Senators and a score of Representatives in Congress. In the presidential electi...on of 1892 it achieved what no other third party had done since 1860. It won for its candidate for President electoral votes in six states and caused many a shrewd political observer to stare and mutter. The hopes that it aroused among the farmers were soon disappointed; the absorption of the People's party into the Democratic party in 1896 brought this chapter of our political history to an untimely end; and nothing was left to the complain- ing farmer but some acrid memories and a lesson. This was not new, but pertinent.
