The Progressive era was an Era that lasted from 1820 to 1920, it was a collection of ideas and activities about how to fix many problems in American society.
They aimed to stop Senate corruption because, at that time, political machines often influenced the election of senators in exchange for federal contracts and jobs. So the progressists proposed the direct election of senator by all states voters. This was passed by the 7th Amendment.
Answer:
Some fugitives went to Canada instead of staying in northern states because they risked being captured in northern states.
Explanation:
During the time of slavery in the southern United States, escaping slaves had to leave the southern states in order to guarantee (to some extent) their freedom. Even so, many times the owners crossed the Mason-Dixon Line and captured the fugitives, either in open places in front of anyone, or with the collusion of the authorities. Therefore, once the Underground Railroad (the organization that was in charge of helping the slaves to escape) was formed, many routes were directed directly to Canada, so as not to saturate the routes to the great northern cities such as New York, as to guarantee the safety of slaves in a country that had abolished slavery in 1807.
