To check your answers, let's go through each question one by one:
1. Why did the Farmers' Alliance form?
To identify the correct answer, we need to understand the purpose of the Farmers' Alliance. The Farmers' Alliance was a movement that emerged in the late 19th century in the United States in response to the economic challenges faced by farmers. It aimed to address the grievances and concerns of farmers and rural communities, such as high crop prices, overreliance on banks, and unfair railroad practices.
a.) to discuss political concerns and develop solutions - This answer seems plausible as the Farmers' Alliance did involve discussions and potential solutions to political and economic issues faced by farmers.
b.) To coordinate the crops grown by farmers in SC - This answer is incorrect because the Farmers' Alliance was not primarily focused on coordinating crops in a particular state.
c.) because the grange did not address social concerns. - This answer is incorrect because the grange, another farmers' organization, primarily focused on social and community issues. The Farmers' Alliance emerged as a response to economic challenges.
d.) because the grange did not address economic concerns. - This answer is correct. The grange, which was focused on social concerns, did not adequately address the economic concerns of farmers, which led to the formation of the Farmers' Alliance.
Regarding your answer, c.) because the grange did not address social concerns, your answer is incorrect based on the information provided. The correct answer is d.) because the grange did not address economic concerns.
2. What political party favored free and unlimited use of silver, a federal income tax, and government ownership of railroads and telephone and telegraph companies?
To identify the correct answer, we need to determine which political party supported these policies.
a.) democratic - The Democratic Party platform has evolved over time, so we need more specific information for this particular time period.
b.) Greenback - The Greenback Party was a short-lived political party in the late 19th century that advocated for a paper money supply not directly backed by gold. While they may have had some overlapping views, their platform did not specifically advocate for the policies mentioned in the question.
c.) people's - This answer appears plausible as the People's Party, also known as the Populist Party, was a political party in the United States during the late 19th century that advocated for many of these policies.
d.) republican - The Republican Party traditionally has not advocated for these policies.
Based on the information provided, your answer of c.) people's is correct. The Populist Party favored the policies mentioned in the question.
3. What change was sponsored by the populists to gain the support of industrial workers?
To identify the correct answer, we need to find the specific change or policy advocated by the Populist Party to attract industrial workers.
a.) eight-hour workday - This answer seems plausible as the eight-hour workday was a demand of many labor movements in the late 19th and early 20th centuries.
b.) double pay for overtime - While this may have been a desirable change for workers, it does not align specifically with the Populist Party's platform.
c.) restrictions on child labor - This answer seems plausible as the Populist Party would likely have supported measures to protect the rights and well-being of industrial workers.
d.) increased safety requirements - Similarly, this answer seems plausible as the Populist Party would likely have advocated for safer working conditions for industrial workers.
Based on the options provided, your answer of a.) eight-hour workday seems to be the most accurate. However, it's important to note that the Populist Party advocated for a range of social and economic reforms, so other options could also be valid depending on the specific context.
1. c - no
2. c - yes
3. a - yes
