To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The fight is on and they'll find me standing where I stood nine months rgo when I promised, if elected, to give the State a business-like administra- tion in the interest of all the people. "My nomination papers have been taken out. I am a candidate for re-election. That's my answer to the Legislature. " The newspaper men had come to refer to the Governor as the "Old Boy. " The nickname stuck to him through his three terms. It was a favorite term of his own. He frequently- used it in chats with... newspaper men and others. The Con- stitution gives the Governor the right with the advice and consent of the Council to prorogue the Legislature and unless he consents to adjournment it must remain in session. Under the law the Legislature cannot adjourn itself over more than two legislative days. The Governor had the whip hand in this case. Local history does not record an instance of a Massa- chusetts Legislature turning on the Chief Executive of the Commonwealth as it did on Governor Foss when the Senate, without the semblance of debate, passed over his veto two bills in succession by a vote of 28 to 0.
