Permitting free trade, and granting lands.<span />
Explanation:
answer is their in the above the
<span>The story goes that Smith was kidnapped by the Algonquian chief Wahunsonacock, or Powhatan, for four weeks , during which he survived a form of life or death trial in which , if it is to be believed , his life was saved by Powhatan`s 11- year old daughter , Pocahontas , Smith claimed he was released because of the child`s intervention . After his release he became president of the Jamestown council and was then injured by a gunpowder burn and returned to England . How much truth is in the story I cannot say .
However , Pocahontas is supposed to have become a regular visitor to the settlement , even bringing them gifts of food to help them survive . In 1613 she in turn was kidnapped by one, Captain Samuel Argall he his said to have held her at ransom , demanding the return of English prisoners and stolen firearms . While Pocahontas was in captivity she was baptized a Christian as `Lady Rebecca` and married a tobacco planter named John Rolfe , in 1616 she came to England and was presented at the court of King James , she died of a fatal illness whilst in England in 1617 aged 22 and is buried in Gravesend Kent . If Pocahontas was a regular visitor to the settlement and was treated well by the settlers , perhaps this might bear out Smith`s story , there must be some reason why she was so well received and married into the community . I think on balance it is highly probable that Smith may well have added to his account , perhaps for personal glory , or possibly because he saw a chance to become leader of the settlement by convincing the others that he had some kind of understanding or rapport with the Indian`s . This of course can only be speculation , the truth is lost in the mist of time</span>
This is huge and there are books written on this...
We are thinking about better wages, living wage in part so that families didn't have to rely on Child labor in the factories, etc.
I'm also thinking better working hours, 8 hour workday, weekends, etc were all goals of the Unions in the late 1800s
Safe working environment was also an issue, some sort of workmans compensation for injuries on the jobs.
all sorts of stuff like that.
An example would be the Great Railroad strike of 1877, over employers reducing wages, ect.
