It depicts a candidate for office (with a devil hovering above him) slipping a purse into a voter’s pocket, while the voter’s wife, standing in the doorway, listens to a clergyman who assures her that bribery is no sin. Two boys point to the transaction, condemning it. Image courtesy of the N.Y. Public Library.

  • Riding the Rails Quiz
    Riding the Rails The advanced industrial development of the United States and much of the white settlement of the Western portion of the country coincided with, and was spurred by, the invention and spread of the railroad in the 19th century. How much do you know about this history? 1. Pick the year when the most miles of railroad tracks were in service in the United States: 1896 1916 1946 1996 2. The immediate trigger of the Financial Panic of 1873 occurred when: The Northern Pacific Railroad, spurred by the grant of millions of acres of federal land, built financially unsustainable lines into these nearly uninhabited territories, finally causing its stock to fall and the finance house that was its agent to go bankrupt. The thousands of immigrant workers who had been employed by the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific Railroads to lay the first transcontinental line finished the job in 1869 and were laid off and suddenly entered the labor pool, driving down wages in many industries. A long strike by railroad workers on the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad spread nationwide and paralyzed the movement of freight, causing business activity around the country to stall. Financiers Jay Gould, James Fisk, and Daniel Drew manipulated the stock price of the Erie Railroad in order to gain complete control over the company from Cornelius Vanderbilt. 3. If you boarded a passenger train in 1870, with which of the following items of safety equipment was it likely equipped? Automatic air brakes Automatic coupling mechanisms to join and separate the car Steam heating in the passenger cars None of the above 4.

  • THE FISK RAID and the REMOVAL ACT of 1868 Philip
    THE ORIGINS OF AN EXPANDED FEDERAL QUESTION JURISDICTION: THE FISK RAID AND THE REMOVAL ACT OF 1868 Philip Leonard Merkel Savannah, Georgia A.B., University of Illinois, 1970 J.D., University of Illinois, 1974 A Thesis Presented to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Virginia in Candidacy for the Degree of Master of Arts Corcoran Department of History University of Virginia May, 1983 Introduction During and after the Civil War, Congress rapidly expanded the types and numbers of suits which parties could originate in or remove to the federal courts. Increasingly, cases which state courts had traditionally decided, such as actions arising under federal law and the Constitution, and disputes where a corporation was a party, found their way into the United States courts. Many of these suits involved negligence claims and land disputes, questions 2 which in the past had been matters of purely local concern. These new accessions to the jurisdiction of the United States courts were profound and highly visible. In the ten-year period beginning in 1876, for instance, the case­ load of the lower federal courts where the United States 3 was not a party more than doubled from 14,397 to 31,455. Many Americans came to view this expansion of federal judicial power with suspicion and contempt. In particular, farmers of the West were not enamored of the ascendancy of the federal courts. Many were convinced that emerging national corporations were behind the movement to broaden federal court jurisdiction. The flight of railroads, insurance companies,

His influence reached its height with his relentless caricatures of Boss Tweed and the Tammany Hall Ring in New York City. In 1871, the Nation, edited by E.L. Godkin, proclaimed: “Mr. Nast has carried political illustrations during the last six months to a pitch of excellence never before attained in this country, and has secured for them an influence on opinion such as they never came near having in any country.”1 Nast contributed to American political and cultural iconography in many ways.

    THE HAND THAT HOLDS THE BREAD New World Records 80267 Progress and Protest In all respects save the abolition of slavery, the Civil War was not an end but a beginning. With it, industry and capital forever gained the upper hand over agrarian gentility. American society entered its rowdy adolescence—brash, confident, rebelliously amoral, reveling in its new Western wealth and toughened Northern muscle. In the quarter century after Appomattox, steel took King Cotton's crown; the tracks of the Iron Horse bound the states into a new, unshakable union; factory workers replaced field hands as America's proletariat; millions of immigrants were lured, bought, or abducted by American wealth; and a splendid lot of rascals, heroes, thieves, and reformers staggered, marched, or slunk across the public stage. Every parlor had a rocking chair; in these re-United States of Progress and Protest, folks kept moving even when sitting still. In the North, the war was good business. For men like J. P. Morgan, Jim Fisk, and Jay Cooke there was no personal danger; safely civilian, they could devote themselves to converting hostilities into profit. Morgan made his first hundred grand by using wartime inflation to precipitate a run on gold. Fisk sold contraband cotton. Cooke entered the war as a banker of moderate wealth; after successfully promoting Union bonds, he was hailed as the savior of the North and became the most powerful financier in the country. In the postwar years the boom continued. "The close of the war," Senator John Sherman warned, "gives a scope to the ideas of leading capitalists far higher than anything ever undertaken in this country before." The hundred and forty thousand factories of 1859 had almost doubled a decade later: Steel production shot from two thousand tons in 1867 to almost one million in 1879.

Steeplechase Amusement Co., Inc., 1 is, on its face, also one of the silliest in the casebooks.2 The case, which involves a negligence suit brought by an amusement park patron after he fell and broke his knee on a ride, is quite slight. It is certainly not a doctrinal blockbuster like MacPherson v. Buick Motor Co., 3 Escola v. Coca Cola Bottling Co. of Fresno,4 Palsgraf v. Long Island Railroad, Co., 5 or Sindell v.
