According to the Central Labor Union's plans, the first Labor Day holiday was observed on Tuesday, September 5, 1882, in New York City. The eight-hour working day movement, which had its start in the newly established Wellington colony in 1840, is mostly credited with inspiring Samuel Parnell, a carpenter, to refuse to work longer than eight hours a day.

In the 1880s, the idea for a September holiday known as Labor or Labor Day in the United States and Canada was initially floated. While working as the Central Labor Conference's secretary in 1882, machinist Matthew Maguire initially suggested a Labor Day holiday on the first Monday of September.

How is the principle of states' rights reflected in the Declaration of Independence or the Articles of Confederation?
padilas [110]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

The Articles of Confederation gave tons of power to the states, even more than the federal government. This idea of states' rights is reflected in the Articles, but it was a bit too much, which is why the Articles were repealed.

The transcendental movement developed between what two wars?
adoni [48]

Answer:

The Transcendental Movement developed between the War of 1812 and the Civil War.

Explanation:

Transcendentalism was an American philosophical, political and literary movement that flourished approximately between 1836 and 1860. It began as a reform movement within the Unitarian Church that sought to extend the application of William Ellery Channing's thought about the inner God and the significance of intuitive thought. For transcendentalists, the soul of each individual is identical to the soul of the world and contains what the world contains. The transcendentalists worked with the feeling that the advent of a new era was at hand. They were critical of their contemporary society for their thoughtless conformity, and urged that each individual seek, in Ralph Waldo Emerson's words, "an original relationship with the universe."
