History

New Mexico failed to gain statehood in the 1800s because various racial, religious, political, and economic difficulties contributed to the delay in the territory's becoming a state, including sectional conflicts like the Colfax County War.

First, in 1850, New Mexico had more than 61,000 inhabitants, which was required to be a state. We were not the appropriate kind of folks, though. American travelers along the Santa Fe Trail from Missouri to New Mexico over the preceding three decades produced reports that, in essence, disqualified New Mexicans from statehood. 

New Mexico's top authorities would be chosen in Washington if it remained a territory. Because of this, the Hispanic majority tended to favor statehood because, if granted the opportunity to elect their own representatives, they could easily install native New Mexicans in the highest positions.

Answer:

laissez-faire - supported lack of government intervention in business affairs

Interstate Commerce Act - regulated railroads

Sherman Anti-Trust Act - banned business practices that supported monopolies

Explanation:

Laissez-faire refers to an economic system from the 18th century that was opposing any government intervention in business affairs. In this system, the individual is the center of the society who has the right to freedom; therefore, the government should not be involved in the economy, because of the natural order that ruled the world.

Interstate Commerce Act was adopted in the U.S. in 1887 as a federal law that regulated the railroad industry. This Act fought for the adjustment of railroad rates, in order to make it reasonable and just. However, the government did not have the power to establish specific rates.

Sherman Anti-Trust Act was brought in the U.S. in 1890, as an antitrust law that banned business practices that supported monopolies. The Sherman Anti-Trust Act was designed to help workers and smaller businessmen by providing them better conditions and encouraging competition.
