Ch.8 Kansas History Reform Movements Reform Movements “It happened first in Kansas” Reform Movements “It happened first in Kansas”

Journal #8 Look at the picture on pg. 160-161. What is happening in that picture? What are political parties? What are Reform Movements?

Ch.8 “Timeline events” Pg. 160-161 1870’s – The US experiences an economic depression. 1870 – 15th amendment added (African American men allowed to vote) 1887- Kansas woman, Susanna Salter, becomes first woman mayor in the U.S. 1919 – 18th amendment added (prohibition of alcohol) 1920 – 19th amendment added (women allowed to vote in state/national elections)

The Gilded Age $$$ The late 1800’s brought on the rise of industrialization (big industries, like steel, railroads, and banking) in the U.S. With this new wealth came corruption (people cheating to get what they want). See example of Senator Pomeroy of KS. and the political cartoon on pg.162

Tough Times for Many Only 5% of American families controlled most of the entire nations wealth in the 1870’s. The majority of Americans were living below the poverty line (economic depression). This brought on reforms!! Reforms are changes!

Reform movements “If anything is going to happen in this country, it happens first in Kansas.” - William Allen White of Emporia, KS Examples: -Abolitionists during the Civil War -Women’s rights movements -Prohibition of alcohol -Populist movement (farmers against gov.)

Legislative War Pg. 176 WHO: Republicans vs. Populists WHAT: House of Representatives election results WHEN: 1893 WHERE: The Topeka Capitol building WHY: Both political parties thought they were the winners of the election and should be in charge of the legislative branch in Kansas. RESULTS: ?

William Allen White Page 178 Wrote “What’s the Matter with Kansas?” Was a Republican who felt Populists were “gibbering idiots” who made Kansas people look foolish to rest of the nation. He helped to weaken the Populist movement even though later he began to support many of their ideas.

Socialism Pg. 180-181 What did socialists want? What was Appeal to Reason? See the political cartoon on pg. 181 “From the Depths” What is that cartoon showing? What does it mean to you?

Little Blue Books PG. 182 Books made so that literature could be available to everyone for a very inexpensive price (over 6,000 titles) Written by Emanuel and Marcet Haldeman- Julius
