Citizenship and Labor in the Progressive Era, 1890-1925 “I HAVE THE EAGLE”: CITIZENSHIP AND LABOR IN THE PROGRESSIVE ERA, 1890-1925 A Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History By: Stephanie Lynn Taylor, M.F.A. Washington, DC August 20, 2017 Copyright 2017 by Stephanie Taylor All Rights Reserved ii “I HAVE THE EAGLE:” CITIZENSHIP AND LABOR IN THE PROGRESSIVE ERA, 1890-1925 Stephanie Lynn Taylor, M.F.A. Thesis Advisor: Joseph A. McCartin, Ph.D. ABSTRACT During the critical years of American industrialization and rising status as a world power, a great struggle unfolded in the United States over workers’ status as citizens and what rights their status entailed. The outcome of this struggle shaped and constrained what workers would achieve in twentieth-century America. Just as imperialism raised the question of whether “the Constitution followed the flag” abroad, industrial conflict in those years raised the question of whether the flag – and the Constitution it symbolized – would follow laboring men and women into workplaces, streets, homes, and interactions with employers and government authorities. This dissertation argues that labor conflicts in this period were frequently fought over the boundaries and content of working-class citizenship. However, by the dawn of the New Deal era, the right to organize had become narrowly defined as a matter of market regulation, not as a matter of constitutional principles. This dissertation draws on the experiences of a wide range of workers to make its argument, including Japanese plantation laborers in Hawaii, agricultural workers along the U.S.-Mexico border, coal miners in Colorado, ore miners in the Midwest, and mill workers in the Northeast. Their struggles are situated in the context of a U.S. working- class undergoing rapid transformation, the expanding power and reach of the American iii state, and the simultaneous emergence of imperialism, racial segregation, and disenfranchisement that illuminated the limits of constitutional protection of the rights of those deemed non-white – as well as those who posed a threat to capitalist interests. This dissertation demonstrates that the power of the state, primarily expressed through the courts, armies, and militias, was repeatedly deployed on behalf of employers to defeat the organizing efforts of workers, especially nonwhites and immigrants. Yet it also shows that workers repeatedly resisted repression from both employers and the state by claiming rights – whether or not they enjoyed the formal status of U.S. citizen. In doing so, they ultimately offered an alternative interpretation of the Constitution, influenced the New Deal, and created a more expansive vision of what citizenship should and could mean. iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Thank you first and foremost to my advisor, Joseph McCartin, for his generosity and kindness in guiding both this dissertation, and my overall development as a scholar. We are lucky to have his brilliant mind and good heart devoted to the project of working- class history. Thank you also to my extraordinary committee of Katherine Benton-Cohen and Marcia Chatelain, as well as Michael Kazin. I am grateful for the immeasurable support and guidance you have each given me over the years. I have learned so much from all of you about how to analyze and learn, but also how to make the study of history an integral part of the present. This project has resulted in many hundreds of hours of research in archives around the country.

Annie Clemenc, an American-born daughter of Croatian immigrants, led daily marches down Main Street carrying an enormous flag. One morning, Captain Frank L. Blackman of the Michigan State Militia tried to wrestle the flag out of Annie's hand. Annie yelled, “This is the flag for freedom, and we want freedom!” During that scuffle, Blackman managed to seize the brass eagle from the top of her flagpole. Afterwards, he told reporters that he “had the eagle, and intended to keep it.” 1 This site of conflict between an immigrant striker and a soldier, especially in the midst of American expansion, speaks to a host of major historiographical themes in the working-class history of the Progressive Era — Americanization, race, gender, immigration and migration, mobility, imperialism, and citizenship all are linked together in that one moment of struggle. This dissertation will explore why. The small confrontation in Calumet reveals a much larger dynamic of state power, patriotic ideology, and worker organization at a crucial moment in the development of the United States as a world power. At the turn of the twentieth century, as American soldiers were deployed to Cuba, Puerto Rico, and the Philippines, there was a corresponding rise of militarized violence at home against workers and people of color. Many of the same soldiers and units who fought overseas in the Philippines were deployed at home to combat largely immigrant strikers. Veteran troops were deployed against striking miners in Salt Lake City, Utah, and Coeur 1 Denver Times, September 14, 1913, 1. 1 d'Alene, Idaho, in 1899, Telluride, Colorado, in 1901 and 1903, and Idaho Springs and Cripple Creek, Colorado in 1903. Nearly 10,000 soldiers were deployed to Pennsylvania in 1904. Arizona Rangers were mobilized to protect American business interests in Mexico in 1906. Lieutenant Karl Linderfelt of the Colorado National Guard, who fought in the Philippines, was charged with the murder of a Greek strike leader in the southern Colorado coal strike in 1914. State militias were mobilized 328 times between 1886 and 1895, for many reasons, but most often to put down strikes and “brush away all obstructions to interstate commerce.” 2 The soldiers and militiamen deployed in these interventions, whether foreign or domestic, often used the same tactics and language to describe their adversaries. They also interpreted their projects in similar ways. Tactics such as water boarding, adopted by U.S. soldiers in the Philippines, were later used against striking miners in Colorado, and even to punish “unruly” girls at reform schools in New York, placing labor strife, colonial insurgency, and social control along a graphic continuum.3 Violence in the Philippines and Mexico became linked in the public imagination to violence in Colorado, Michigan, and Massachusetts. Workers responded with 2 On the rise of state policing of labor conflict, see David Montgomery, Citizen Worker: The Experience of Workers in the United States with Democracy and the Free Market in the Nineteenth Century (New York: Cambridge University Press, 1993). Here Montgomery is quoting the U.S. Supreme Court ruling during the 1894 Pullman boycott, in which it made clear the coercive role of the military to support the market: “The entire strength of the nation may be used to enforce in any part of the land the full and free exercise of all national powers and the security of all rights entrusted by the Constitution to its care. The strong arm of the national government may be put forth to brush away all obstructions to interstate commerce or to the transportation of the mails. If the emergency arises, the army of the nation, and all its militia, are at the service of the nation to compel obedience to its laws.” (97) For more on the Coeur d’Alene strike and the years of conflict that followed, see J. Anthony Lukas, Big Trouble: A Murder in a Small Western Town Sets Off a Struggle for the Soul of America (New York: Simon and Schuster, 1997). For more on the Cripple Creek strike, see Elizabeth Jameson, All That Glitters: Class, Conflict and Community in Cripple Creek (Urbana: University of Illinois Press), in which she analyzes the development of class politics in Cripple Creek over the course of a decade.

Sullivan Specialist in Latin American Affairs November 27, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL30981 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Panama: Political and Economic Conditions and U.S. Relations Summary With five successive elected civilian governments, the Central American nation of Panama has made notable political and economic progress since the 1989 U.S. military intervention that ousted the regime of General Manuel Antonio Noriega from power. Current President Ricardo Martinelli of the center-right Democratic Change (CD) party was elected in May 2009, defeating the ruling center-left Democratic Revolutionary Party (PRD) in a landslide. Martinelli was inaugurated to a five-year term on July 1, 2009. Martinelli’s Alliance for Change coalition with the Panameñista Party (PP) also captured a majority of seats in Panama’s National Assembly. Panama’s service-based economy has been booming in recent years – with a growth rate of 7.6% in 2010 and 10.6% in 2011 – largely because of the ongoing Panama Canal expansion project, now slated for completion in early 2015. The CD’s coalition with the PP fell apart at the end of August 2011when President Martinelli sacked PP leader Juan Carlos Varela as Foreign Minister. Varela, however, retains his position as Vice President. Tensions between the CD and the PP had been growing throughout 2011, largely related to which party would head the coalition’s ticket for the 2014 presidential election. Despite the breakup of the coalition, the strength of the CD has grown significantly since 2009 because of defections from the PP and the PRD and it now has a majority on its own in the legislature.

    THEODORE ROOSEVELT'S BIG-STICK POLICY - In 1901, only a few months after being inaugurated president for a second time, McKinley was killed by an anarchist - Succeeding him was the vice president-the young expansionist and hero of the Spanish-American War, Theodore Roosevelt - Describing his foreign policy, the new president had once said that it was his motto to "speak softly and carry a big stick" - The press therefore applied the label "big stick" to Roosevelt's aggressive foreign policy - By acting decisively in a number of situations, Roosevelt attempted to build the reputation of the U.S. as a world power - Imperialists liked him, but critics of the big-stick policy disliked breaking from the tradition of noninvolvement in global politics THE PANAMA CANAL - As a result of the Spanish-American War, the new American empire stretched from Puerto Rico to the Philippines in the Pacific - As a strategy for holding these islands, the U.S. needed a canal in Central America to connect the Atlantic & Pacific Oceans REVOLUTION IN PANAMA - Roosevelt was eager to begin the construction of a canal through the narrow but rugged terrain of the isthmus of Panama - He was frustrated that Colombia controlled Panama & refused to agree to U.S. terms for digging the canal through Panama - Losing patience with Colombia, Roosevelt supported a revolt in Panama in 1903 - With U.S. backing, the rebellion succeeded immediately and almost without bloodshed - The first act of the new gov't of independent Panama was to sign a treaty (the Hay-Bunau-Varilla Treaty of 1903) granting the U.S.

    Island Studies Journal, Vol. 8, No. 1, 2013, pp. 179-206 BOOK REVIEWS SECTION Rebecca Adler-Nissen and Ulrik Pram Gad (eds.) (2013). European integration and postcolonial sovereignty games: The EU Overseas Countries and Territories . Abingdon: Routledge. xxx+252pp, ISBN-13: 978-0-415-65727-3 (hbk) £80. ISBN: 13:978-0-203- 07684-2 (ebk). The thrust to independence for the remaining colonies slowly ground to a halt in the last part of the Twentieth century. In consequence there now remain a good number of mostly island territories for which sovereign independence is no longer seen as an option. Twenty five of these have a unique relationship with the European Union (EU) defined by the term ‘Overseas Countries and Territories’ (OCT), eleven of which are British, six French, six Dutch and one Danish. Under the terms of the Overseas Association Decision (OAD) adopted in 2001, the OCT have a special and unique relationship with the EU which provides them with preferential trading arrangements and very modest levels of development assistance, among other benefits. The OAD is now under consideration for revision as of the end of 2013. It and the OCT relationship with the EU is little known in the EU and little discussed in the OCT or within the EU member states to which they are associated. It has equally been ignored by the academic community. This book by Adler-Nissen and Gad is the first comprehensive comparative study of the OCT relationship with a particular focus on the triangular relationship linking together the OCT at one corner, the European Commission at another and the member states to which the OCT are linked at the third.

Founded by siblings Darrin “Dee” Dean, Joaquin “Waah” Dean and Chivon Dean, Ruff Ryders arose from the gritty streets of the South Bronx in the late 1998s, starting as an artist management firm, and went on to one of hip-hop’s most iconic dynasties. With the sound mostly backed by famed producer Swizz Beatz , who is also their nephew, the independent record label was an unstoppable force on the charts at the turn of the millennium. Featured artists included DMX and The Lox, revered lyricists in their own right, and Ruff Ryders official first lady, Eve. Aside from the solo releases from affiliated artists, Ruff Ryders released the popular Ryde or Die compilation series (three volumes from 1999 to 2005). Rebranding as Ruff Ryders Indy in 2010, the multi-million dollar empire has since evolved to encompass film, lifestyle, and philanthropy.
