Wednesday

 Today you will have a short reading packet with a couple fun activities on the Gilded Age. Tomorrow a quiz and then we will move on to U.S. Imperialism (1898-1945).


1. What was the economic downturn that set the stage for the Pullman Strike? 

2. Who was the leader of the ARU? 

3. Grover Cleveland insisted that trains carrying what be allowed to run? 

4. How many people were killed in riots in Chicago and around the nation? 

5. Do you believe the federal government had the authority to send troops in to break up the strike? Why or why not?
