3 0

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

In the late 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, a group of rich and influential lawyers in Santa Fe, New Mexico, amassed fortunes through bribery and corruption acts such as frauds in selling land. They were known as the "Santa Fe Ring."

These corruptive actions generated the ire of people in Santa Fe, initiating the Lincoln County War on February 18, 1788, after the assassination of rancher John Tunstall. Santa Fe lived a period of violence and confrontations during those years.

The Pendleton Act helped to relieve the issue of corruption in government. How did this act accomplish this goal?

How did the new lands national reclaim nation Act contribute to an immigration problem
LekaFEV [45]

The Reclamation Act (also known as the Lowlands Reclamation Act or National Reclamation Act) of 1902 (Pub.L. 57–161) is a United States federal law that funded irrigation projects for the arid lands of 20 states in the American West.


The act at first covered only 13 of the western states as Texas had no federal lands. Texas was added later by a special act passed in 1906. The act set aside money from sales of semi-arid public lands for the construction and maintenance of irrigation projects. The newly irrigated land would be sold and money would be put into a revolving fund that supported more such projects. This led to the eventual damming of nearly every major western river.[citation needed] Under the act, the Secretary of the Interior created the United States Reclamation Service within the United States Geological Survey to administer the program. In 1907, the Service became a separate organization within the Department of the Interior and was renamed the United States Bureau of Reclamation.


The Act was drafted by Democratic Congressional Representative Francis G. Newlands of Nevada. Many of the loans made to farmers—loans funded by the sales of federal land—were never repaid.[1] Amendments made by the Reclamation Project Act of 1939 gave the Department of the Interior, among other things, the authority to amend repayment contracts and to extend repayment for not more than 40 years. Amendments made by the Reclamation Reform Act of 1982 (P.L. 97-293) eliminated the residency requirement provisions of reclamation law, raised the acreage limitation on lands irrigated with water supplied by the Bureau of Reclamation, and established and required full-cost rates for land receiving water above the acreage limit.
