Big Business: Andrew Carnegie was one of the first industrial moguls -revolutionized steel industry in 1873 -By 1899, the Carnegie Steel Company manufactured more steel than all the factories in Great Britain combined Wrote the book titled Gospel of Wealth
CARNEGIE S VERTICAL INTEGRATION Vertical integration - he bought out his suppliers (coal fields, iron mines, ore freighters, and rail lines) in order to control materials and transportation
CARNEGIE S HORIZONTAL INTEGRATION Carnegie bought up the competition through friendly and hostile takeovers 2. Horizontal Integration; buying companies that produce similar products 3. Allows control of suppliers and limit competition

Objective The student will (TSW) analyze the effects of industrialization on living and working conditions by completing a gallery walk and writing a paragraph. Benchmark/Standard US.2.4 Examine the effect of the government s laissez-faire policy, innovations in technology and transportation, and changes in business organization that led to the growth of an industrial economy
Gallery Walk: Directions Walk around the room looking at the pictures of working conditions during the Industrial Revolution. For every picture complete two on-the-surface (what I see) and two under-the-surface (what I predict) observations related to each picture. When finished sit down and write a paragraph answering the essential question: How did the growth of industrialization impact the living and working conditions for Americans?
Problem #1: Unfair Working Conditions Low wages Long hours (10-14 hours a day) No unemployment, no health care benefits Government does not help because of Laissez Faire
Problem #2: Unhealthy Working Conditions Black lung, white lung High injury rate
Problem #3: Child Labor Children as young six were employed Many worked full time Jobs to help support their families Children were often injured on the job
Problem #4: Poor Living Conditions Lack of sanitation and police Families were often crowded into one room
Business Boom Bypasses the South 1.Still recovering from Civil War 2. Hindered by lack of capital 3. North owns 90% of stock in RR 4. Business problems: high transport costs, tariffs, few skilled workers
Labor Unions DEFINITION: A group of workers (laborers) all in the same industry (job) who organize their efforts to create better working conditions.
Reasons for forming unions Long Hours/No benefits *six to seven day work weeks *12 hour work days *no vacation time *no sick leave *no unemployment compensation *no workman s compensation
Reasons for forming unions cont d Unsafe Working Conditions *dirty and poorly ventilated workplaces *dangerous faulty equipment *1892:675 laborers died in work-related accidents Ridiculously low wages *so low, the whole family had to work *sweatshop type work (ex: child 14 hour day for 27 cents/hr)
NLU (National Labor Union) 1866: formed by iron workers *Led by William Sylvis got Congress to legalize the 8/hr work day CNLU (Colored National Labor Union)
Knights of Labor open to all races and genders Also in favor of the 8 hour work day equal pay for equal work preferred arbitration to a strike
American Federation of Labor Samuel Gompers (president) used Collective Bargaining consists of the process of negotiation between representatives of a union and employers (generally represented by management strikes were also a major tactic
railway union skilled and unskilled laborers led by Eugene Debbs (leader)
Strikes Turn Violent Industry and government saw unions as a threat to capitalism. Great Strike of 1877 *Baltimore and Ohio railroads *ended by federal troops Haymarket Affair *3,000 people protesting police brutality *7 policemen and several workers killed
Homestead Strike *strike at the Carnegie Steel Company s Homestead plant (PA) when wage cuts were announced. *hired private police to protect plants *hired scabs *turned violent led to several deaths
Pullman Company Strike Pullman s workers went on strike when he cut wages but not rent Turned violent Federal troops intervened. End result: workers fired and blackballed.

Anticipatory Set: Think Pair Share What is an immigrant? List 3 to 5 problems do you think immigrants face when they enter a new land?
The New Immigrants Mass Rush of Immigrants in the late 19 th and early 20 th century 1. Seeking refuge from famine and shortages 2. Seeking quick profits before returning home (Birds of Passage) 3. Mostly from Eastern and Southern Europe
Push Factors Push Factors= Things that force/ push people out of a place or land. Drought or famine Political revolutions or wars Religious persecution Economic struggles
Pull Factors Pull Factors= Things that attract people to a place or land. Plentiful Land Employment Religious Freedom Political Freedom New Life
European Immigrants 20 million between 1870 and 1920 Arrived on the shores of the East Coast From all parts of Europe Possible Reason for leaving Europe: Escaping religious persecution rising populations in (scarce jobs and resources) seeking independent lives
Chinese and Japanese Arrived on the shores West Coast In smaller number than the Europeans Help build railroads as well as jobs in Farming, Mining, and Domestic Service 1898 The U.S. annexed Hawaii (large Japanese population) so many Japanese immigrants moved into the continental U.S.
West Indies & Mexican Immigrants West Indies From Jamaica, Cuba, and Puerto Rico In search of jobs promised from the U.S. industrial boom Mexicans In search of work Fleeing political unrest
Life in the New Land A difficulty Journey Usually travelled from 1 to 3 weeks by steamship In ship s cargo areas Crowded and unsanitary Many died before the trip ended
Immigration Stations Areas where immigrants were inspected to see if they could enter the U.S. Example 1: Ellis Island, N.Y. (East coast, European immigrants) EEE Most detained at least a day before admittance Only about 2% denied admission Pass physical exam by doctor Pass document check by government inspector Had to have at least $25,be able to work, and no criminal record, and pass a government test
Immigration Stations Angel Island (West Coast) Asians In San Francisco Much harsher than Ellis Island Tough questioning and dirty accommodations
Immigration Restrictions Lots of conflict between immigrants and Native-born Americans Nativism overt favoritism towards Native-Born Americans. Led to a lot of anti-immigrant groups Discrimination based on Country of origin religion
Chinese Exclusion Act Result of Anti-Chinese Sentiment (felt they were taking jobs because they worked for less) Banned entry to the U.S. to all Chinese students, teachers, merchants etc. Eventually Restricted Chinese immigration indefinitely
The Gentlemen s Agreement Japan agreed to limit the number of unskilled workers they would allow to leave for the U.S. In exchange the U.S. would lift segregation bands against Japanese students in San Francisco.

Anticipatory Set: Brees Group Think Pair Share What is urbanization? List 3 to 5 problems that an area may encounter, once there is rapid urbanization?
Challenges of Urbanization Urban Opportunities Immigrants settle in cities (Urbanization) *cities were the cheapest and most convenient places to live *cities gave unskilled immigrants places to work (factories and mills)
Americanization Movement attempt to Assimilate immigrants into dominant culture (not always embraced) Teach them history, speaking, cooking, etc. sponsored by government and concerned citizens
Migration from Country to City Many rural people moved to the cities as the need for farmers decreased (technology replacing their jobs) Racial tension in Northern Cities (Detroit, Chicago etc.) between Southern African American farmers who moved there to compete for jobs with whites.
Urban Problems 1. Housing *typically cramped rooms in boarding houses *Tenements *two or more families (usually immigrants) living in one family homes *overcrowded and unsanitary
Transportation Mass transit was a need System designed to move large numbers of people Street Cars introduced in S.F. Subways in Boston Bigger the population = bigger the demand
Water Needed to provide safe drinking water to prevent disease *Public Waterworks were built *Many problems with pipes and plumbing
Sanitation *Bigger the city, the harder it is to keep clean *Sewage in open gutters *Horse manure piled in streets *Foul smoke in the air from factories *led to the eventual development of sewage lines and sanitation departments
Crime As populations grew so did the amount of theft Most of the law enforcement of the times were too small to have an impact on crime
Fire Big problem because of limited water supply Most houses were packed with wood Many people used candles and kerosene Wasn t till 1900 that most cities had full time paid fire departments
Social Gospel Movement Early reform program Preached salvation through service to the poor Settlement Houses Provided educational, cultural and social services EX: Hull House founded by JANE Addams

ANTICIPATORY SET: GROUP THINK PAIR SHARE What do you think the term corruption/scandal means? How does it tie in to our previous discussions on white collar crimes?
Politics in the Gilded Age Political Machines 1. Organized group that controlled the activities of a political party in a city 2. Run by city boss 3. Offered services to voters and businesses in exchange for political and financial support. 4. Controlled many major cities (Baltimore, NY, SF, etc.)
Role of the Political Boss Controlled the city (officially or unofficially) Controlled all city jobs and licenses Influenced over courts and government agencies Also did get a lot done (built hospitals, etc) Helped secure votes
Immigrants and The Machine Many bosses and captains of the machine were first and second generation immigrants Could speak to immigrants in a familiar way (understood them) Helped immigrants with various issues in exchange for votes
Municipal Graft and Scandal Bosses became corrupt as their influence grew Election Fraud Used fake names and re-voted to make sure they won elections Graft Illegally used their influence for personal gain. EX: Kick backs, bribes, etc.
Boss Tweed William Marcy Tweed, a.k.a. Boss Tweed, one of the most powerful political bosses. Head of Tammany Hall (New York Democratic Political Machine) Defrauded the city of NY 13 million dollar construction project really only cost 3 million (He and his followers kept the difference) 120 counts of fraud and extortion (12 years in jail) Thomas Nast (Cartoonist who got public outraged with Tweed s dealings)
Civil Service Replaces Patronage Patronage (AKA Spoils system) Giving of government jobs to people who help you get elected Stalwarts : name given to those who supported the spoils system Reformers wanted civil service jobs (govt. jobs) to go to the most qualified person.
Rutherford B. Hayes Republican elected U.S. President in 1876 Named independents to his cabinet to avoid the spoils system Opposed by stalwarts Those who liked the spoils system
James Garfield Reform Republican Elected in 1880 Wanted to get rid of patronage Shot by Charles Guiteau (turned down for a job) Vice President Arthur Was a stalwart but carried on Garfield s reforms
Pendleton Civil Service Act A bipartisan civil service commission must make appointments to Federal Jobs. Jobs were given based on performance on an examination
