railroad system grew rapidly In 1860 the UnitedStates had about 30000 miles (48270 km) of rail-road track By 1900 the nation had nearly 250000miles (402250 km) of track

Work songs such as ldquoJohn Henryrdquo and ldquoIrsquoveBeen Working on the Railroadrdquo were popularamong those who labored to build these miles oftrack They sang

ldquoIrsquove been working on the railroadAll the live-long dayIve been working on the railroadJust to pass the time awayrdquo

The expansion of the railroad system wasaccompanied by consolidationmdashthe practice ofcombining separate companiesmdashin the industryLarge railroad companies expanded by buyingsmaller companies or by driving them out ofbusiness Consolidation made the large compa-nies more efficient After consolidation a fewpowerful individuals known as railroad baronscontrolled the nationrsquos rail traffic

Railroad BaronsNew Yorker Cornelius Vanderbilt one of the

first railroad barons gained control of the NewYork Central line and then made a fortune by con-solidating several companies His railroad empirestretched from New York City to the Great Lakes

Another railroad baron James J Hill builtthe Great Northern line between Minnesotaand Washington State Until his death in 1916Hill continued building and directing his ever-growing business empire Collis P HuntingtonLeland Stanford and two other partnersfounded the Central Pacific which connectedCalifornia and Utah

The railroad barons were aggressive andcompetitive They lived in an age when fewlaws had been passed to regulate business andsome of their methods were highly question-able Nevertheless the railroad barons playedan important part in building the nationrsquostransportation system

Analyzing What did consolidationmean for many small companies

Economics

Railroads Stimulate the Economy

The fast-growing national rail system creatednew economic links in the country The railroadscarried raw materials such as iron ore coal andtimber to factories They also carried manufac-tured goods from factories to markets and trans-ported produce from farming areas to the cities

The national railroad system encouraged theexpanding economy in many other ways Atfirst the demand for iron tracks and locomotiveshelped the iron mining and processing indus-tries grow Around 1880 railroad companiesbegan using tracks of steelmdasha metal madestronger by adding carbon and other elementsto refined iron The use of steel in railroad tracksstimulated Americarsquos steel industry

The railroads also helped other industries tothrive The lumber industry which suppliedwood for railway ties and the coal industrywhich provided fuel for locomotives sawextraordinary growth In addition railroad com-panies provided work for thousands of peoplewho laid tracks and built stations and for thosewho manufactured railway cars and equipment

Improving the RailroadsIncreased use made it necessary for railroads

to expand and unify their systems While rail-roads were being built across the country differ-ent lines used rails of different gauges or widthsAs a result trains of one line could not useanother linersquos tracks Many early local lines car-ried goods for short distances and did not even

As the railroad companies consolidated rail-road barons saw the advantages of being part ofa national railroad network During the late1880s almost all companies adopted a standardgauge of 4 feet 85 inches as the width of therailroad track A standard gauge allowed fastershipment of goods at a reduced cost It was no

longer necessary to load and unload goods fromone train to another One train could make theentire journey

Railroad TechnologyRailway transportation also improved with

the introduction of new technology Four devel-opments were particularly important InventorGeorge Westinghouse devised air brakes thatimproved the system for stopping trains mak-ing train travel safer Janney car couplersnamed after inventor Eli H Janney made it eas-ier for railroad workers to link cars Refrigeratedcars developed by Gustavus Swift enabled therailroads to ship meat and other perishablegoods over long distances Finally George MPullman developed the Pullman sleeping carmdash

Competing for CustomersAs the railroad network expanded the rail-

road companies competed fiercely with oneanother to keep old customers and to win newones Large railroads offered secret discountscalled rebates to their biggest customersSmaller railroads that could not match theserebates were often forced out of business Giv-ing discounts to big customers raised freightrates for farmers and other customers whoshipped small amounts of goods

The railroad barons also made secret agree-ments among themselves known as pools Theydivided the railway business among their com-panies and set rates for a region With no othercompetition in its region a railroad could chargehigher rates and earn greater profits AlthoughCongress and some states passed laws to regu-late the railroads these laws did little to curb therailroad barons

Railroads also touched the lives of thousandsof Americans Trains redistributed the popula-tion They carried homesteaders into the GreatPlains and the West Trains also made it easy forpeople to move from rural areas to the cities

Time ZonesRailroads affected the way Americans

thought about time as well As train travelbecame more common people began measuringdistances by how many hours the trip wouldtake rather than by the number of miles trav-eled The spread of the railroad system led to anational system of time with four time zones

The railroads opened the entire United Statesto settlement and economic growth and unitedthe different regions of the country into a singlenetwork At the same time inventions that rev-olutionized transportation and communicationbrought Americans together in new ways

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

railroad system grew rapidly In 1860 the UnitedStates had about 30000 miles (48270 km) of rail-road track By 1900 the nation had nearly 250000miles (402250 km) of track

Work songs such as ldquoJohn Henryrdquo and ldquoIrsquoveBeen Working on the Railroadrdquo were popularamong those who labored to build these miles oftrack They sang

ldquoIrsquove been working on the railroadAll the live-long dayIve been working on the railroadJust to pass the time awayrdquo

The expansion of the railroad system wasaccompanied by consolidationmdashthe practice ofcombining separate companiesmdashin the industryLarge railroad companies expanded by buyingsmaller companies or by driving them out ofbusiness Consolidation made the large compa-nies more efficient After consolidation a fewpowerful individuals known as railroad baronscontrolled the nationrsquos rail traffic

Railroad BaronsNew Yorker Cornelius Vanderbilt one of the

first railroad barons gained control of the NewYork Central line and then made a fortune by con-solidating several companies His railroad empirestretched from New York City to the Great Lakes

Another railroad baron James J Hill builtthe Great Northern line between Minnesotaand Washington State Until his death in 1916Hill continued building and directing his ever-growing business empire Collis P HuntingtonLeland Stanford and two other partnersfounded the Central Pacific which connectedCalifornia and Utah

The railroad barons were aggressive andcompetitive They lived in an age when fewlaws had been passed to regulate business andsome of their methods were highly question-able Nevertheless the railroad barons playedan important part in building the nationrsquostransportation system

Economics

Railroads Stimulate the Economy

The fast-growing national rail system creatednew economic links in the country The railroadscarried raw materials such as iron ore coal andtimber to factories They also carried manufac-tured goods from factories to markets and trans-ported produce from farming areas to the cities

The national railroad system encouraged theexpanding economy in many other ways Atfirst the demand for iron tracks and locomotiveshelped the iron mining and processing indus-tries grow Around 1880 railroad companiesbegan using tracks of steelmdasha metal madestronger by adding carbon and other elementsto refined iron The use of steel in railroad tracksstimulated Americarsquos steel industry

The railroads also helped other industries tothrive The lumber industry which suppliedwood for railway ties and the coal industrywhich provided fuel for locomotives sawextraordinary growth In addition railroad com-panies provided work for thousands of peoplewho laid tracks and built stations and for thosewho manufactured railway cars and equipment

Improving the RailroadsIncreased use made it necessary for railroads

to expand and unify their systems While rail-roads were being built across the country differ-ent lines used rails of different gauges or widthsAs a result trains of one line could not useanother linersquos tracks Many early local lines car-ried goods for short distances and did not even

As the railroad companies consolidated rail-road barons saw the advantages of being part ofa national railroad network During the late1880s almost all companies adopted a standardgauge of 4 feet 85 inches as the width of therailroad track A standard gauge allowed fastershipment of goods at a reduced cost It was no

longer necessary to load and unload goods fromone train to another One train could make theentire journey

the introduction of new technology Four devel-opments were particularly important InventorGeorge Westinghouse devised air brakes thatimproved the system for stopping trains mak-ing train travel safer Janney car couplersnamed after inventor Eli H Janney made it eas-ier for railroad workers to link cars Refrigeratedcars developed by Gustavus Swift enabled therailroads to ship meat and other perishablegoods over long distances Finally George MPullman developed the Pullman sleeping carmdash

Competing for CustomersAs the railroad network expanded the rail-

road companies competed fiercely with oneanother to keep old customers and to win newones Large railroads offered secret discountscalled rebates to their biggest customersSmaller railroads that could not match theserebates were often forced out of business Giv-ing discounts to big customers raised freightrates for farmers and other customers whoshipped small amounts of goods

The railroad barons also made secret agree-ments among themselves known as pools Theydivided the railway business among their com-panies and set rates for a region With no othercompetition in its region a railroad could chargehigher rates and earn greater profits AlthoughCongress and some states passed laws to regu-late the railroads these laws did little to curb therailroad barons

Railroads also touched the lives of thousandsof Americans Trains redistributed the popula-tion They carried homesteaders into the GreatPlains and the West Trains also made it easy forpeople to move from rural areas to the cities

Time ZonesRailroads affected the way Americans

thought about time as well As train travelbecame more common people began measuringdistances by how many hours the trip wouldtake rather than by the number of miles trav-eled The spread of the railroad system led to anational system of time with four time zones

The railroads opened the entire United Statesto settlement and economic growth and unitedthe different regions of the country into a singlenetwork At the same time inventions that rev-olutionized transportation and communicationbrought Americans together in new ways

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

The Oil BusinessThe oil industry grew rapidly in the late 1800s

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

pushed the United States to become an industrial nation To

create the lightbulb Edison first had to understand how elec-

tricity works Now conduct your own investigation of electrical

currents much as Edison did and experience the life of an

inventor Find out which common objects are conductors and

which are insulators by building and testing a battery-powered

conductivity tester

Building a Conductivity Tester

flashlight with one fresh D cell(battery)

3 pieces of insulated wire(each about 6 inches (15 cm)long with the ends stripped)

roll of masking or duct tape a penny a plastic comb several pieces of fabric a metal fork or spoon several different rocks various other objects to test

Thomas Edison suffered

from hearing problems

throughout his life

Although an operation

could have saved his

hearing Edison refused it

He claimed he preferred

deafness because it

helped him concentrate

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

railroad system grew rapidly In 1860 the UnitedStates had about 30000 miles (48270 km) of rail-road track By 1900 the nation had nearly 250000miles (402250 km) of track

Work songs such as ldquoJohn Henryrdquo and ldquoIrsquoveBeen Working on the Railroadrdquo were popularamong those who labored to build these miles oftrack They sang

ldquoIrsquove been working on the railroadAll the live-long dayIve been working on the railroadJust to pass the time awayrdquo

The expansion of the railroad system wasaccompanied by consolidationmdashthe practice ofcombining separate companiesmdashin the industryLarge railroad companies expanded by buyingsmaller companies or by driving them out ofbusiness Consolidation made the large compa-nies more efficient After consolidation a fewpowerful individuals known as railroad baronscontrolled the nationrsquos rail traffic

Railroad BaronsNew Yorker Cornelius Vanderbilt one of the

first railroad barons gained control of the NewYork Central line and then made a fortune by con-solidating several companies His railroad empirestretched from New York City to the Great Lakes

Another railroad baron James J Hill builtthe Great Northern line between Minnesotaand Washington State Until his death in 1916Hill continued building and directing his ever-growing business empire Collis P HuntingtonLeland Stanford and two other partnersfounded the Central Pacific which connectedCalifornia and Utah

The railroad barons were aggressive andcompetitive They lived in an age when fewlaws had been passed to regulate business andsome of their methods were highly question-able Nevertheless the railroad barons playedan important part in building the nationrsquostransportation system

Railroads Stimulate the Economy

The fast-growing national rail system creatednew economic links in the country The railroadscarried raw materials such as iron ore coal andtimber to factories They also carried manufac-tured goods from factories to markets and trans-ported produce from farming areas to the cities

The national railroad system encouraged theexpanding economy in many other ways Atfirst the demand for iron tracks and locomotiveshelped the iron mining and processing indus-tries grow Around 1880 railroad companiesbegan using tracks of steelmdasha metal madestronger by adding carbon and other elementsto refined iron The use of steel in railroad tracksstimulated Americarsquos steel industry

The railroads also helped other industries tothrive The lumber industry which suppliedwood for railway ties and the coal industrywhich provided fuel for locomotives sawextraordinary growth In addition railroad com-panies provided work for thousands of peoplewho laid tracks and built stations and for thosewho manufactured railway cars and equipment

Improving the RailroadsIncreased use made it necessary for railroads

to expand and unify their systems While rail-roads were being built across the country differ-ent lines used rails of different gauges or widthsAs a result trains of one line could not useanother linersquos tracks Many early local lines car-ried goods for short distances and did not even

As the railroad companies consolidated rail-road barons saw the advantages of being part ofa national railroad network During the late1880s almost all companies adopted a standardgauge of 4 feet 85 inches as the width of therailroad track A standard gauge allowed fastershipment of goods at a reduced cost It was no

longer necessary to load and unload goods fromone train to another One train could make theentire journey

the introduction of new technology Four devel-opments were particularly important InventorGeorge Westinghouse devised air brakes thatimproved the system for stopping trains mak-ing train travel safer Janney car couplersnamed after inventor Eli H Janney made it eas-ier for railroad workers to link cars Refrigeratedcars developed by Gustavus Swift enabled therailroads to ship meat and other perishablegoods over long distances Finally George MPullman developed the Pullman sleeping carmdash

Competing for CustomersAs the railroad network expanded the rail-

road companies competed fiercely with oneanother to keep old customers and to win newones Large railroads offered secret discountscalled rebates to their biggest customersSmaller railroads that could not match theserebates were often forced out of business Giv-ing discounts to big customers raised freightrates for farmers and other customers whoshipped small amounts of goods

The railroad barons also made secret agree-ments among themselves known as pools Theydivided the railway business among their com-panies and set rates for a region With no othercompetition in its region a railroad could chargehigher rates and earn greater profits AlthoughCongress and some states passed laws to regu-late the railroads these laws did little to curb therailroad barons

Railroads also touched the lives of thousandsof Americans Trains redistributed the popula-tion They carried homesteaders into the GreatPlains and the West Trains also made it easy forpeople to move from rural areas to the cities

Time ZonesRailroads affected the way Americans

thought about time as well As train travelbecame more common people began measuringdistances by how many hours the trip wouldtake rather than by the number of miles trav-eled The spread of the railroad system led to anational system of time with four time zones

The railroads opened the entire United Statesto settlement and economic growth and unitedthe different regions of the country into a singlenetwork At the same time inventions that rev-olutionized transportation and communicationbrought Americans together in new ways

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

557CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

railroad system grew rapidly In 1860 the UnitedStates had about 30000 miles (48270 km) of rail-road track By 1900 the nation had nearly 250000miles (402250 km) of track

Work songs such as ldquoJohn Henryrdquo and ldquoIrsquoveBeen Working on the Railroadrdquo were popularamong those who labored to build these miles oftrack They sang

ldquoIrsquove been working on the railroadAll the live-long dayIve been working on the railroadJust to pass the time awayrdquo

The expansion of the railroad system wasaccompanied by consolidationmdashthe practice ofcombining separate companiesmdashin the industryLarge railroad companies expanded by buyingsmaller companies or by driving them out ofbusiness Consolidation made the large compa-nies more efficient After consolidation a fewpowerful individuals known as railroad baronscontrolled the nationrsquos rail traffic

Railroad BaronsNew Yorker Cornelius Vanderbilt one of the

first railroad barons gained control of the NewYork Central line and then made a fortune by con-solidating several companies His railroad empirestretched from New York City to the Great Lakes

Another railroad baron James J Hill builtthe Great Northern line between Minnesotaand Washington State Until his death in 1916Hill continued building and directing his ever-growing business empire Collis P HuntingtonLeland Stanford and two other partnersfounded the Central Pacific which connectedCalifornia and Utah

The railroad barons were aggressive andcompetitive They lived in an age when fewlaws had been passed to regulate business andsome of their methods were highly question-able Nevertheless the railroad barons playedan important part in building the nationrsquostransportation system

Railroads Stimulate the Economy

The fast-growing national rail system creatednew economic links in the country The railroadscarried raw materials such as iron ore coal andtimber to factories They also carried manufac-tured goods from factories to markets and trans-ported produce from farming areas to the cities

The national railroad system encouraged theexpanding economy in many other ways Atfirst the demand for iron tracks and locomotiveshelped the iron mining and processing indus-tries grow Around 1880 railroad companiesbegan using tracks of steelmdasha metal madestronger by adding carbon and other elementsto refined iron The use of steel in railroad tracksstimulated Americarsquos steel industry

The railroads also helped other industries tothrive The lumber industry which suppliedwood for railway ties and the coal industrywhich provided fuel for locomotives sawextraordinary growth In addition railroad com-panies provided work for thousands of peoplewho laid tracks and built stations and for thosewho manufactured railway cars and equipment

Improving the RailroadsIncreased use made it necessary for railroads

to expand and unify their systems While rail-roads were being built across the country differ-ent lines used rails of different gauges or widthsAs a result trains of one line could not useanother linersquos tracks Many early local lines car-ried goods for short distances and did not even

As the railroad companies consolidated rail-road barons saw the advantages of being part ofa national railroad network During the late1880s almost all companies adopted a standardgauge of 4 feet 85 inches as the width of therailroad track A standard gauge allowed fastershipment of goods at a reduced cost It was no

longer necessary to load and unload goods fromone train to another One train could make theentire journey

the introduction of new technology Four devel-opments were particularly important InventorGeorge Westinghouse devised air brakes thatimproved the system for stopping trains mak-ing train travel safer Janney car couplersnamed after inventor Eli H Janney made it eas-ier for railroad workers to link cars Refrigeratedcars developed by Gustavus Swift enabled therailroads to ship meat and other perishablegoods over long distances Finally George MPullman developed the Pullman sleeping carmdash

Competing for CustomersAs the railroad network expanded the rail-

road companies competed fiercely with oneanother to keep old customers and to win newones Large railroads offered secret discountscalled rebates to their biggest customersSmaller railroads that could not match theserebates were often forced out of business Giv-ing discounts to big customers raised freightrates for farmers and other customers whoshipped small amounts of goods

The railroad barons also made secret agree-ments among themselves known as pools Theydivided the railway business among their com-panies and set rates for a region With no othercompetition in its region a railroad could chargehigher rates and earn greater profits AlthoughCongress and some states passed laws to regu-late the railroads these laws did little to curb therailroad barons

example shifted westward in the 1800s movingfrom the East Coast to Ohio to Minneapolis andfinally to Kansas City Other industries followedthe same pattern As farmers settled the GreatPlains the manufacturing center for agriculturalequipment moved from central New York Stateto Illinois and Wisconsin

Railroads also touched the lives of thousandsof Americans Trains redistributed the popula-tion They carried homesteaders into the GreatPlains and the West Trains also made it easy forpeople to move from rural areas to the cities

Time ZonesRailroads affected the way Americans

thought about time as well As train travelbecame more common people began measuringdistances by how many hours the trip wouldtake rather than by the number of miles trav-eled The spread of the railroad system led to anational system of time with four time zones

The railroads opened the entire United Statesto settlement and economic growth and unitedthe different regions of the country into a singlenetwork At the same time inventions that rev-olutionized transportation and communicationbrought Americans together in new ways

They went to department stores where they bought everything from kitchen sinksto shoes Americans could also do their shopping by mailmdashor pick up the tele-phone and order groceries from the local store The automobile the electric lightand the telephone were all invented after 1870 Within a generation they hadbecome part of everyday life for millions of people New inventions helped peo-ple communicate more quickly over long distances Improvements in communi-cation helped unify the regions of the country and promoted economic growth

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

industry His company became powerful throughvertical integration acquiring companies thatprovided the equipment and services he neededCarnegie bought iron and coal mines ware-houses ore ships and railroads to gain control ofall parts of the business of making and sellingsteel When Carnegie combined all his holdingsinto the Carnegie Steel Company in 1900 he wasproducing one-third of the nationrsquos steel

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

connect with other lines The gaps in servicebetween the various lines made long-distancerailroad travel slow and inefficient

As the railroad companies consolidated rail-road barons saw the advantages of being part ofa national railroad network During the late1880s almost all companies adopted a standardgauge of 4 feet 85 inches as the width of therailroad track A standard gauge allowed fastershipment of goods at a reduced cost It was no

longer necessary to load and unload goods fromone train to another One train could make theentire journey

Railroad TechnologyRailway transportation also improved with

the introduction of new technology Four devel-opments were particularly important InventorGeorge Westinghouse devised air brakes thatimproved the system for stopping trains mak-ing train travel safer Janney car couplersnamed after inventor Eli H Janney made it eas-ier for railroad workers to link cars Refrigeratedcars developed by Gustavus Swift enabled therailroads to ship meat and other perishablegoods over long distances Finally George MPullman developed the Pullman sleeping carmdash

Competing for CustomersAs the railroad network expanded the rail-

road companies competed fiercely with oneanother to keep old customers and to win newones Large railroads offered secret discountscalled rebates to their biggest customersSmaller railroads that could not match theserebates were often forced out of business Giv-ing discounts to big customers raised freightrates for farmers and other customers whoshipped small amounts of goods

The railroad barons also made secret agree-ments among themselves known as pools Theydivided the railway business among their com-panies and set rates for a region With no othercompetition in its region a railroad could chargehigher rates and earn greater profits AlthoughCongress and some states passed laws to regu-late the railroads these laws did little to curb therailroad barons

example shifted westward in the 1800s movingfrom the East Coast to Ohio to Minneapolis andfinally to Kansas City Other industries followedthe same pattern As farmers settled the GreatPlains the manufacturing center for agriculturalequipment moved from central New York Stateto Illinois and Wisconsin

Railroads also touched the lives of thousandsof Americans Trains redistributed the popula-tion They carried homesteaders into the GreatPlains and the West Trains also made it easy forpeople to move from rural areas to the cities

Time ZonesRailroads affected the way Americans

thought about time as well As train travelbecame more common people began measuringdistances by how many hours the trip wouldtake rather than by the number of miles trav-eled The spread of the railroad system led to anational system of time with four time zones

The railroads opened the entire United Statesto settlement and economic growth and unitedthe different regions of the country into a singlenetwork At the same time inventions that rev-olutionized transportation and communicationbrought Americans together in new ways

Reading a Time Zone Map

Earthrsquos surface is divided into 24 time zones Eachzone represents 15deg longitude or the distance theearth rotates in one hour The 0deg line of longi-tudemdashthe Prime Meridianmdashis the starting pointfor figuring time around the world Traveling westfrom the Prime Meridian it becomes one hourearlier traveling east it becomes one hour laterTo read a time zone map follow these steps

bull Locate a place where you know what time it isand select another place where you wish to knowthe time

bull Notice the time zones you cross between thesetwo places

bull If the second place lies east of the first add anhour for each time zone If it lies west subtractan hour for each zone

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The First Flight at Kitty Hawk

A small crowd of people assembled on the sanddunes at Kitty Hawk North Carolina to test theWrightsrsquo Flyer Covering a few hundred feet in 12 sec-onds the flight came to a halt when the Flyerrsquos wingcaught on one of the dunes It was enough to encour-age the Wrights to try further flights They would soonhave a practical aircraft and the world would have anew form of transportation

The Beginning of ControlledPowered Flight

Inventors experimented with engine-powered aircraft in the 1800s but theage of air travel did not begin until 1903at Kitty Hawk North Carolina Orvilleand Wilbur Wright brothers and bicyclemechanics built a wood-and-canvasplane with a 12-horsepower engine Onthe morning of December 17 OrvilleWright took off in their plane and flew adistance of 120 feet

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry 573

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Competing for CustomersAs the railroad network expanded the rail-

road companies competed fiercely with oneanother to keep old customers and to win newones Large railroads offered secret discountscalled rebates to their biggest customersSmaller railroads that could not match theserebates were often forced out of business Giv-ing discounts to big customers raised freightrates for farmers and other customers whoshipped small amounts of goods

The railroad barons also made secret agree-ments among themselves known as pools Theydivided the railway business among their com-panies and set rates for a region With no othercompetition in its region a railroad could chargehigher rates and earn greater profits AlthoughCongress and some states passed laws to regu-late the railroads these laws did little to curb therailroad barons

Railroads also touched the lives of thousandsof Americans Trains redistributed the popula-tion They carried homesteaders into the GreatPlains and the West Trains also made it easy forpeople to move from rural areas to the cities

Time ZonesRailroads affected the way Americans

thought about time as well As train travelbecame more common people began measuringdistances by how many hours the trip wouldtake rather than by the number of miles trav-eled The spread of the railroad system led to anational system of time with four time zones

The railroads opened the entire United Statesto settlement and economic growth and unitedthe different regions of the country into a singlenetwork At the same time inventions that rev-olutionized transportation and communicationbrought Americans together in new ways

They went to department stores where they bought everything from kitchen sinksto shoes Americans could also do their shopping by mailmdashor pick up the tele-phone and order groceries from the local store The automobile the electric lightand the telephone were all invented after 1870 Within a generation they hadbecome part of everyday life for millions of people New inventions helped peo-ple communicate more quickly over long distances Improvements in communi-cation helped unify the regions of the country and promoted economic growth

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

A small crowd of people assembled on the sanddunes at Kitty Hawk North Carolina to test theWrightsrsquo Flyer Covering a few hundred feet in 12 sec-onds the flight came to a halt when the Flyerrsquos wingcaught on one of the dunes It was enough to encour-age the Wrights to try further flights They would soonhave a practical aircraft and the world would have anew form of transportation

The Beginning of ControlledPowered Flight

Inventors experimented with engine-powered aircraft in the 1800s but theage of air travel did not begin until 1903at Kitty Hawk North Carolina Orvilleand Wilbur Wright brothers and bicyclemechanics built a wood-and-canvasplane with a 12-horsepower engine Onthe morning of December 17 OrvilleWright took off in their plane and flew adistance of 120 feet

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

In 1906 Ford had an idea for a new type of carHe told Charles Sorenson later Fordrsquos generalsuperintendent ldquoWersquore going to get a car nowthat we can make in great volume and get theprices way downrdquo For the next year Ford andSorenson worked on the Model T building thecar and testing it on rough roads In 1908 Fordintroduced the Model T to the public Sorensondescribed the sturdy black vehicle as

ldquo a car which anyone could afford to buywhich anyone could drive anywhere and whichalmost anyone could keep in repairrdquo

These qualities made the Model T immenselypopular During the next 18 years Fordrsquos com-pany sold 15 million Model Trsquos Henry Ford also pioneered a new less expensive way to manu-facture carsmdashthe assembly line On the assem-bly line each worker performed an assignedtask again and again at a certain stage in the pro-duction of the automobile The assembly line

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Communication ChangesBy 1910 Americans in cities drove cars through streets lit with electric lights

They went to department stores where they bought everything from kitchen sinksto shoes Americans could also do their shopping by mailmdashor pick up the tele-phone and order groceries from the local store The automobile the electric lightand the telephone were all invented after 1870 Within a generation they hadbecome part of everyday life for millions of people New inventions helped peo-ple communicate more quickly over long distances Improvements in communi-cation helped unify the regions of the country and promoted economic growth

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The First Flight at Kitty Hawk

A small crowd of people assembled on the sanddunes at Kitty Hawk North Carolina to test theWrightsrsquo Flyer Covering a few hundred feet in 12 sec-onds the flight came to a halt when the Flyerrsquos wingcaught on one of the dunes It was enough to encour-age the Wrights to try further flights They would soonhave a practical aircraft and the world would have anew form of transportation

The Beginning of ControlledPowered Flight

Inventors experimented with engine-powered aircraft in the 1800s but theage of air travel did not begin until 1903at Kitty Hawk North Carolina Orvilleand Wilbur Wright brothers and bicyclemechanics built a wood-and-canvasplane with a 12-horsepower engine Onthe morning of December 17 OrvilleWright took off in their plane and flew adistance of 120 feet

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry 573

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

In the early 1900s American songwriters were caught up in the public fascinationwith new inventions One of the most popular songs of 1905 ldquoIn My Merry Oldsmobilerdquo celebrated the automobile

Communication ChangesBy 1910 Americans in cities drove cars through streets lit with electric lights

They went to department stores where they bought everything from kitchen sinksto shoes Americans could also do their shopping by mailmdashor pick up the tele-phone and order groceries from the local store The automobile the electric lightand the telephone were all invented after 1870 Within a generation they hadbecome part of everyday life for millions of people New inventions helped peo-ple communicate more quickly over long distances Improvements in communi-cation helped unify the regions of the country and promoted economic growth

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The First Flight at Kitty Hawk

A small crowd of people assembled on the sanddunes at Kitty Hawk North Carolina to test theWrightsrsquo Flyer Covering a few hundred feet in 12 sec-onds the flight came to a halt when the Flyerrsquos wingcaught on one of the dunes It was enough to encour-age the Wrights to try further flights They would soonhave a practical aircraft and the world would have anew form of transportation

The Beginning of ControlledPowered Flight

Inventors experimented with engine-powered aircraft in the 1800s but theage of air travel did not begin until 1903at Kitty Hawk North Carolina Orvilleand Wilbur Wright brothers and bicyclemechanics built a wood-and-canvasplane with a 12-horsepower engine Onthe morning of December 17 OrvilleWright took off in their plane and flew adistance of 120 feet

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

A Changing SocietyIn the 1900s improvements ushered in a new

era of transportation After a period of experi-mentation the automobile became a practicalmethod of getting from place to place

Henry Fordrsquos AutomobilesHenry Ford wanted to build an inexpensive

car that would last a lifetime While working asan engineer in Detroit Michigan in the 1890sFord had experimented with an automobile

engine powered by gasoline In 1903 he estab-lished an automaking company and begandesigning cars

In 1906 Ford had an idea for a new type of carHe told Charles Sorenson later Fordrsquos generalsuperintendent ldquoWersquore going to get a car nowthat we can make in great volume and get theprices way downrdquo For the next year Ford andSorenson worked on the Model T building thecar and testing it on rough roads In 1908 Fordintroduced the Model T to the public Sorensondescribed the sturdy black vehicle as

ldquo a car which anyone could afford to buywhich anyone could drive anywhere and whichalmost anyone could keep in repairrdquo

These qualities made the Model T immenselypopular During the next 18 years Fordrsquos com-pany sold 15 million Model Trsquos Henry Ford also pioneered a new less expensive way to manu-facture carsmdashthe assembly line On the assem-bly line each worker performed an assignedtask again and again at a certain stage in the pro-duction of the automobile The assembly line

Changing the Way We Live

Inventions American ingenuity innovation and imagination led to the inventions that changed the way we live and how we communicate

Kodak Camera In 1888George Eastman invented asmall camera that made iteasier and less costly to takephotographs

The Telephone Alexander Graham Belldemonstrated the telephone in 1876The telephone soon became a necessityBy 1900 there were 2 million in use

Lighting the World Lewis Latimer improved onEdisonrsquos version creating a bulb that lasted muchlonger and developed the threaded socket Latimerdirected the installation of electric street lights inNew York City Philadelphia Montreal and London

Phonograph The first practicalphonograph was built byThomas Edison in 1877

up to then service wasonly to post offices Bythe 1890s the US PostOffice had expandedits delivery service inrural areas

Merchants could nowsend goods across thecountry nearly as easilyas across town Some firms developed mailorder businesses receiving and shipping ordersby mail Companies such as Montgomery Wardand Sears Roebuck published catalogs thatoffered a wide range of goods from shoes tofarm equipment Catalogs introduced rural fam-ilies to a wide assortment of goods not found incountry stores

Chain storesmdashstores with identical branchesin many placesmdashgrew rapidly FW Wool-worthrsquos chain of ldquofive-and-ten-cent storesrdquo spe-cialized in the sale of everyday household andpersonal items at bargain prices By 1911 morethan a thousand Woolworthrsquos were in operationThe Woolworth Building erected in New YorkCity in 1913 stood 792 feet (241 meters) tallmdashthetallest building in the world at that time

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

The TelegraphSamuel Morse had introduced the telegraph in

1844 By 1860 the United States had thousands ofmiles of telegraph lines which were controlledfor the most part by the Western Union Tele-graph Company At telegraph offices trainedoperators transmitted messages in Morse codeTelegrams offered almost instant communicationand had many uses Shopkeepers relied ontelegrams to order goods and reporters usedthem to transmit stories to their newspapersAmericans also began sending personal mes-sages by telegram

The telegraph soon linked the United Statesand Europe In the 1860s news from Europetraveled to this country by ship and took several

weeks Cyrus Field wanted to speed up theprocess After several unsuccessful attempts in1866 Field managed to lay a telegraph cableacross the Atlantic Ocean The new transatlantictelegraph carried messages in a matter of sec-onds bringing the United States and Europecloser together

The Telephone Rings InAlexander Graham Bell invented a device that

revolutionized communications even more thanMorsersquos telegraph Born and educated in Scot-land Bell moved to the United States where hestudied ways of teaching hearing-impaired peo-ple to speak At the same time he experimentedwith sending voices through electrical wires

The First Flight at Kitty Hawk

A small crowd of people assembled on the sanddunes at Kitty Hawk North Carolina to test theWrightsrsquo Flyer Covering a few hundred feet in 12 sec-onds the flight came to a halt when the Flyerrsquos wingcaught on one of the dunes It was enough to encour-age the Wrights to try further flights They would soonhave a practical aircraft and the world would have anew form of transportation

The Beginning of ControlledPowered Flight

Inventors experimented with engine-powered aircraft in the 1800s but theage of air travel did not begin until 1903at Kitty Hawk North Carolina Orvilleand Wilbur Wright brothers and bicyclemechanics built a wood-and-canvasplane with a 12-horsepower engine Onthe morning of December 17 OrvilleWright took off in their plane and flew adistance of 120 feet

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

In 1906 Ford had an idea for a new type of carHe told Charles Sorenson later Fordrsquos generalsuperintendent ldquoWersquore going to get a car nowthat we can make in great volume and get theprices way downrdquo For the next year Ford andSorenson worked on the Model T building thecar and testing it on rough roads In 1908 Fordintroduced the Model T to the public Sorensondescribed the sturdy black vehicle as

ldquo a car which anyone could afford to buywhich anyone could drive anywhere and whichalmost anyone could keep in repairrdquo

These qualities made the Model T immenselypopular During the next 18 years Fordrsquos com-pany sold 15 million Model Trsquos Henry Ford also pioneered a new less expensive way to manu-facture carsmdashthe assembly line On the assem-bly line each worker performed an assignedtask again and again at a certain stage in the pro-duction of the automobile The assembly line

An Age of Big Business

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

The Oil BusinessThe oil industry grew rapidly in the late 1800s

Edwin Drakersquos Titusville well produced 15 bar-rels of petroleum a day As word of his successspread prospectors and investors hurried towestern Pennsylvania ldquoOil rushrdquo towns withnames such as Oil City and Petroleum Centersprang up overnight The oil boom expanded asprospectors struck oil in Ohio and West Virginia

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

The Wizard of Menlo ParkThomas Edison was called ldquodullrdquo by his

teachers Because of poor hearing he had troublein school and often didnrsquot attend His motherfinally removed him from school and taughthim at home He loved anything related to sci-ence and she allowed him to set up a chemistrylab in the familyrsquos basement When he was 12he got a job working for the railroad where heset up a new lab in an empty freight car Oneday Edison saved the life of a child who hadfallen onto the tracks of an oncoming train Thechildrsquos father took an interest in Edison andtaught him to use the telegraph Edisonrsquos firstinvention was a gadget that sent automatic tele-graph signalsmdashwhich he invented so he couldsleep on the job

While still in his 20s Edison decided to go intothe ldquoinvention businessrdquo In 1876 Edison set up aworkshop in Menlo Park New Jersey Out of thisfamous laboratory came the phonograph themotion picture projector the telephone transmit-ter and the storage battery But Edisonrsquos mostimportant invention was the electric lightbulb

Edison developed the first workable lightbulbin 1879 He then designed power plants thatcould produce electric power and distribute it tolightbulbs For Christmas in 1880 Edison

used 40 bulbs to light up Menlo Park Visitorsflocked to see the ldquolight of the futurerdquo He builtthe first central electric power plant in 1882 inNew York Citymdashilluminating 85 buildings

Inventor George Westinghouse took ThomasEdisonrsquos work with electricity even further In1885 Westinghouse developed and built trans-formers that could send electric power morecheaply over longer distances Soon electricitypowered factories trolleys streetlights andlamps all over America Westinghouse alsodeveloped a system for transporting natural gasand invented many safety devices

African American InventorsA number of African Americans contributed to

the era of invention Lewis Howard Latimer anengineer developed an improved filament forthe lightbulb and joined Thomas Edisonrsquos com-pany Granville Woods an electrical andmechanical engineer from Ohio patented dozensof inventions Among them were an electric incu-bator and railroad improvements such as an elec-tromagnetic brake and an automatic circuitbreaker Elijah McCoy invented a mechanism foroiling machinery

Jan E Matzeliger another African Americaninventor developed a shoe-making machinethat performed many steps previously done byhand His device which revolutionized the shoeindustry was adopted in shoe factories in theUnited States and overseas

A Changing SocietyIn the 1900s improvements ushered in a new

era of transportation After a period of experi-mentation the automobile became a practicalmethod of getting from place to place

Henry Fordrsquos AutomobilesHenry Ford wanted to build an inexpensive

car that would last a lifetime While working asan engineer in Detroit Michigan in the 1890sFord had experimented with an automobile

engine powered by gasoline In 1903 he estab-lished an automaking company and begandesigning cars

In 1906 Ford had an idea for a new type of carHe told Charles Sorenson later Fordrsquos generalsuperintendent ldquoWersquore going to get a car nowthat we can make in great volume and get theprices way downrdquo For the next year Ford andSorenson worked on the Model T building thecar and testing it on rough roads In 1908 Fordintroduced the Model T to the public Sorensondescribed the sturdy black vehicle as

ldquo a car which anyone could afford to buywhich anyone could drive anywhere and whichalmost anyone could keep in repairrdquo

These qualities made the Model T immenselypopular During the next 18 years Fordrsquos com-pany sold 15 million Model Trsquos Henry Ford also pioneered a new less expensive way to manu-facture carsmdashthe assembly line On the assem-bly line each worker performed an assignedtask again and again at a certain stage in the pro-duction of the automobile The assembly line

Changing the Way We Live

Inventions American ingenuity innovation and imagination led to the inventions that changed the way we live and how we communicate

Kodak Camera In 1888George Eastman invented asmall camera that made iteasier and less costly to takephotographs

The Telephone Alexander Graham Belldemonstrated the telephone in 1876The telephone soon became a necessityBy 1900 there were 2 million in use

Lighting the World Lewis Latimer improved onEdisonrsquos version creating a bulb that lasted muchlonger and developed the threaded socket Latimerdirected the installation of electric street lights inNew York City Philadelphia Montreal and London

Phonograph The first practicalphonograph was built byThomas Edison in 1877

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry

John D Rockefeller a young oil man never tired until he got what he wanted Oneperson commented ldquoThe only time I ever saw John Rockefeller enthusiastic was when areport came in that his buyer had secured a cargo of oil at a figure much below themarket price He bounded from his chair with a shout of joy danced up and downhugged me threw up his hat acted so like a madman that I have never forgotten it rdquo

Foundations for GrowthIn the hills of western Pennsylvania a sticky black substancemdashpetroleummdash

seeped from the ground For a while promoters sold the oil as medicine Thenin the 1850s researchers found they could burn petroleum to produce heat andsmoke-free light It could also be used to lubricate machinery Suddenly oilbecame valuable A former railroad conductor named Edwin L Drake believedthat he could find petroleum by digging a well People thought Drake waswrong Few people knew that pools of oil did indeed exist underground

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

In 1859 Drake decided to test his belief Hedrilled a well in Titusville Pennsylvaniaand struck oil This led to the creation of amultimillion-dollar petroleum industry

Factors of ProductionThe period from the end of the Civil War to

1900 was an era of unmatched economic growthin the United States New methods in technologyand business allowed the country to tap its richsupply of natural resources increase its produc-tion and raise the money needed for growthThe growing transportation system made it eas-ier for merchants to reach distant markets

The change from an agricultural economy toan industrial one was possible because theUnited States had the resources needed for agrowing economy Among these resources werewhat economists call the factors of productionland labor and capital

The first factor of production land means notjust the land itself but all natural resources TheUnited States held a variety of natural resourcesthat were useful for industrial production

The second production factor is labor Largenumbers of workers were needed to turn rawmaterials into goods This need was met by therapid growth of population Between 1860 and1900 the population of the country morethan doubled

The third productionfactor capital is the equip-mentmdashbuildings machin-ery and toolsmdashused inproduction Land and laborare needed to produce capitalgoods These goods in turnare essential for the produc-tion of consumer goods

The term ldquocapitalrdquo is alsoused to mean money for invest-ment Huge amounts of moneywere needed to finance industrialgrowth One source of money wasthe selling of stock by corporationsAnother was corporate savings orbusinesses investing a portion oftheir earnings in better equipment

Raising CapitalWith the economy growing after the Civil

War many railroads and other businesseslooked for ways to expand To do so they had toraise capital They needed capital to buy rawmaterials and equipment to pay workers andto cover shipping and advertising costs

One way a company could raise capital was bybecoming a corporation A corporation is a com-pany that sells shares or stock of its business tothe public The people who invest in the corpora-tion by buying stock are its shareholders or partial owners

In good times shareholders earn dividendsmdashcash payments from the corporationrsquos profitsmdashon the stock they own If the companyprospers its stock rises in value and the share-holders can sell it for a profit If the companyfails however the shareholders lose theirinvestment In the late 1800s hundreds of thou-sands of people shared in corporate profits bybuying and selling stocks in special marketsknown as stock exchanges

Growth of CorporationsRailroads were the first businesses to form

corporations or ldquoincorporaterdquo Soon manufac-turing firms and other busi-nesses were incorporating as well The growth of corpo-rations helped fuel Amer-icarsquos industrial expansion inthe years following theCivil War

Banks played a majorrole in this period of economic growth Busi-nesses borrowed moneyfrom banks to start orexpand their opera-tions The banks inturn made profits onthe loans

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

The Oil BusinessThe oil industry grew rapidly in the late 1800s

John D RockefellerBorn in Richford New York in 1839 John D

Rockefeller made his fortune from oil WhenRockefeller was 26 years old he and four part-ners set up an oil refinerymdasha plant to processoilmdashin Cleveland Ohio

In 1870 Rockefeller organized the StandardOil Company of Ohio and set out to dominatethe oil industry He acquired most of the oilrefineries in Cleveland and other cities

One method Rockefeller used to build hisempire was horizontal integrationmdashcombiningcompeting firms into one corporation The cor-poration produced and used its own tank carspipelines and even its own wooden barrelsmdashmade from forests owned by Standard Oil Stan-dard Oil grew in wealth and power becomingthe most famous corporate empire of the day

The Standard Oil TrustTo strengthen Standard Oilrsquos position in the

oil industry Rockefeller lowered his prices todrive his competitors out of business In addi-tion he pressured customers not to deal withrival oil companies and he persuaded the rail-roads to grant him rebates in exchange for hisbusiness

Rockefeller increased his control of the oilindustry in 1882 by forming a trust a group ofcompanies managed by the same board of direc-tors First he acquired stock in many different oilcompanies Then the shareholders of these com-panies traded their stock for Standard Oil stockwhich paid higher dividends This gave Stan-dard Oilrsquos board of directors ownership of the

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Economics Activity24 Using a product that is familiar to you explain how each

of the factors of production was used in its creation

Technology Activity25 Using a Spreadsheet Become an imaginary shareholder

in a corporation Search for stock market data in a dailynewspaper Choose one stock to follow for a two-weekperiod Track the performance of the stock on a spread-sheet by marking its daily increases and decreases Com-pare your spreadsheet with classmatesrsquo results anddecide if you made a good investment

Alternative Assessment26 Portfolio Writing Activity Review the chapter for infor-

mation about the four major union strikes between 1877and 1894 Write a headline for each that might haveappeared in newspapers following the strike

What role does electricity play in your life Can you imagine

your life without electricity Electricity powers lights TVs

radios ovens microwaves and computers along with countless

other objects you use every day

The Way It Was

The Civil War had ended No longer divided by war Ameri-

cans set about improving their lives Inventors led the way

Inventors such as George Westinghouse Lewis Howard Latimer

and Thomas Edison learned from one another and together

pushed the United States to become an industrial nation To

create the lightbulb Edison first had to understand how elec-

tricity works Now conduct your own investigation of electrical

currents much as Edison did and experience the life of an

inventor Find out which common objects are conductors and

which are insulators by building and testing a battery-powered

conductivity tester

Building a Conductivity Tester

3 pieces of insulated wire(each about 6 inches (15 cm)long with the ends stripped)

roll of masking or duct tape a penny a plastic comb several pieces of fabric a metal fork or spoon several different rocks various other objects to test

Thomas Edison suffered

from hearing problems

throughout his life

Although an operation

could have saved his

hearing Edison refused it

He claimed he preferred

deafness because it

helped him concentrate

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Corporations Grow LargerIn 1889 New Jersey encouraged the trend

toward business monopolies by allowing hold-ing companies to obtain charters a practice thatsome states prohibited A holding companywould buy controlling interests in the stock ofother companies instead of purchasing the com-panies outright Rockefeller formed StandardOil of New Jersey so that the corporation couldexpand its holdings Other states also passedlaws that made corporate mergersmdashthe combin-ing of companiesmdasheasier

Mergers concentrated economic power in afew giant corporations and a few powerful indi-viduals such as Rockefeller and banker J Pier-pont Morgan By 1900 one-third of all Americanmanufacturing was controlled by just 1 percentof the countryrsquos corporations These giant cor-porations were the driving force behind the

great economic growth of the period but theyalso posed problems On the one hand manyAmericans admired the efficiencies that largebusinesses provided On the other hand someargued that a lack of competition hurt con-sumers Without competition corporations hadno reason to keep their prices low or to improvetheir goods and services

Government RegulationState governments responded to the growing

opposition to trusts and monopolies During the1880s several states passed laws restrictingbusiness combinations Corporations howeveravoided these laws by doing business in statesthat had no such laws

Public pressure for a federal law to prohibittrusts and monopolies led Congress to pass theSherman Antitrust Act in 1890 The law soughtldquoto protect trade and commerce against unlawfulrestraint and monopolyrdquo The act did not clearlydefine either ldquotrustsrdquo or ldquomonopoliesrdquo however

In its early years the Sherman Antitrust Act didlittle to curb the power of big business By con-trast in the 1890s the government did use the actto stop a strike by railroad workers that threat-ened to ldquorestrainrdquo the nationrsquos mail delivery

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry 573

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

On a spring day in 1886 about 12000 workers in Chicagorsquos Haymarket Squaremanufacturing district were on strike Nearly all were immigrants and many wore smallred ribbons on their jackets At 2 orsquoclock a man climbed up on an empty freight carnear the crowd He moved to the edge of the roof and waved frantically at the crowdbelow ldquoStand firmrdquo he yelled ldquoLet every man stand shoulder to shoulder and we willwin this fight We must have our rights Strike while the iron is hot rdquo

Working ConditionsThe industrial growth of the late 1800s created new jobs Growth also raised

the standard of living for many American workers That is necessities and lux-uries were more available and affordable Yet workers paid a price for economicprogress Factories had once been small workplaces where employers andemployees knew one another and often worked side by side As mass produc-tion spread however factories became larger and less personal

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

CHAPTER 19 The Growth of Industry 573

Industrial laborers worked for 10 or 12 hours aday six days a week They could be fired at anytime for any reason Many lost their jobs duringbusiness downturns or were replaced by immi-grants who were willing to work for lower pay

Factories and mines were noisy unhealthy andunsafe Accidents were common Steel workerssuffered burns from spills of hot steel Coal min-ers died in cave-ins and from the effects of gasand coal dust Textile workersrsquo lungs were dam-aged by airborne lint Garment workers toiled incrowded urban factories called sweatshopswhere their eyesight was ruined by sewing forhours in poor light Filled with flammable mate-rials the sweatshops were also terrible firetraps (See page 971 for a first-person account of sweatshop conditions)

Women WorkersAlthough the majority of working women in

the late 1800s had jobs as domestic servantswomen also joined the industrial workforceespecially the textile industry By 1900 morethan one million women worked in industryHowever because no laws regulated workersrsquosalaries women generally received about half ofwhat men earned for the same work

Child LaborIndustries also hired children In 1900 hun-

dreds of thousands of children under 16 years ofage worked in factories Concerned groupsbrought child labor to the attention of their statelegislatures As a result many states passed child-labor laws These laws stated that children work-ing in factories had to be at least 12 years old andshould not work more than 10 hours a dayEmployers widely ignored child-labor lawshowever Also the laws did not apply to agricul-ture which employed about one million children

Examining How did mass produc-tion change the size of factories

Labor Unions FormDissatisfied workers organized into groupsmdash

labor unionsmdashto demand better pay and work-ing conditions from their employers Earlier inthe 1800s skilled workers had formed unions to

represent workers in certain crafts or tradessuch as carpentry These trade unions had littleinfluence because each represented only onetrade By the mid-1800s labor leaders looked toexpand their unions

In 1869 garment cutters in Philadelphiafounded the Noble and Holy Order of theKnights of Labor Employers fired workers whojoined labor organizations so the Knights metsecretly and used special handshakes to identifyeach other Under the leadership of Terence VPowderly the Knights of Labor became anational labor organization in the 1880s Unlikemost unions the Knights recruited people whohad been kept out of trade unions includingwomen African Americans immigrants andunskilled laborers

The Knights of Labor grew rapidly to morethan 700000 members by 1886 However a waveof strikes turned public opinion against the unionand it lost members and power in the 1890s

In 1881 a group of national trade unionsformed a federation that five years later becameknown as the American Federation of Labor(AFL) The AFL represented skilled workers invarious crafts

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Women and the UnionsMany unions would not admit women work-

ers so some women formed their own unionsMary Harris Jones better known as MotherJones spent 50 years fighting for workersrsquo rights

In 1911 a fire broke out at the Triangle Shirt-waist Company factory a crowded sweatshopin New York City The workers mostly youngimmigrant women could not escape from thebuilding because the company had locked thedoors to prevent employees from leaving earlyNearly 150 workers died in the fire The disasterled the International Ladiesrsquo Garment WorkersUnion (ILGWU) to push for a safer workingenvironment

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

The Unions ActEconomic depressions in the 1870s and the

1890s led companies to fire workers and lowerwages Unions responded with large strikes thatsometimes sparked violence

Economic depression hit the nation followinga financial panic in 1873 To cut costs companiesforced their workers to take pay cuts In July1877 angry strikers burned rail yards ripped uptrack and destroyed railroad property The com-panies hired strikebreakers to replace the strik-ing workers and federal troops restored order

Antilabor feeling grew stronger after a bloodyclash between police and strikers in ChicagorsquosHaymarket Square in May 1886 Striking work-ers from the McCormick Harvester Companygathered to protest the killings of four strikersthe previous day When police ordered thecrowd to break up an unidentified person threwa bomb that killed a police officer Several morewere killed in a riot that followed Following theHaymarket Riot many Americans associatedthe labor movement with terrorism and disorder

In 1892 workers went on strike at AndrewCarnegiersquos steel plant in Homestead Pennsylva-nia Plant managers had cut workersrsquo wageshoping to weaken the steelworkersrsquo unionWhen the union called a strike Homesteadmanagers hired nonunion workers and brought

in 300 armed guards to protect them A fiercebattle left at least 10 people dead Pennsylva-niarsquos governor sent the statersquos militia to Home-stead to restore order The plant reopened withnonunion workers protected by the troopsAfter the failure of the Homestead Strike thesteelworkersrsquo union dwindled

The employees of George Pullmanrsquos railway-car plant near Chicago went on strike in May1894 when the company cut wages Pullman responded by closing the plant One monthlater workers in the American Railway Unionsupported the strikers by refusing to handlePullman cars paralyzing rail traffic

Pullman and the railroad owners fought backThey persuaded US Attorney General RichardOlney to obtain an injunction or court order tostop the union from ldquoobstructing the railwaysand holding up the mailsrdquo The workers andtheir leader Eugene V Debs refused to end thestrike Debs was sent to jail

President Grover Cleveland sent federaltroops to Chicago and soon the strike was overThe failure of the Pullman Strike dealt anotherblow to the union movement Despite these set-backs workers continued to organize to workfor better wages and working conditions

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention

Build your conductivity tester by unscrewingthe top of the flashlight You will find that theflashlight contains a bulb assembly

1 Take one wire and tape it to the metal tipof the flashlight lightbulb Tape a secondwire to the metal ring that touches theside of the bulb

2 Tape the other end of the wire that isconnected to the tip of the lightbulb tothe positive (+) end of a D cell (battery)and touch the free end of the secondwire to the negative (ndash) end of the cellThe light should go on because you havemade an electrical current (If the lightdoes not go on make sure all the con-nections are taped tightly and make good contact)

3 Tape one end of a third wire to the nega-tive (ndash) end of the cell and touch the freeend of that wire to the wire coming fromthe bulb holder Again the light shouldgo on Try touching the two free ends ofthe wires to the penny at the same timeThe bulb should light because the pennyis a good conductor

Test your other objects in the same waythat you tested the penny Record whetherthey are conductors or insulators

1 In general what types of materials make thebest conductors

2 From your experiment how would you definean electrical current

3 Drawing Conclusions What are some ofthe risks inventors take when experimentingwith unfamiliar materials

How was Edison able to invent such usefulthings How would you go about inventingsomething Research and learn about some

of the inventors from the late 1800s and early 1900s Note howthese inventors got started Then create a diagram that explainshow you would go about creating a new invention
