The answer is C. It was the most effective worker's union in the United States at the time, and was not as hostile as other unions, but it wasn't soft on big businesses either! It was quiet left-wing in its views, Socialist in fact. Most members were defectors from the Knights of Labor who were too militaristic for the common man to stomach.
Hope I helped!

What was the effect of the Pilgrims landing in present-day Massachusetts instead of Virginia
elena55 [62]

Answer:

The Pilgrims and Puritans came to America to practice religious freedom. ... The Pilgrims had a long and difficult journey across the Atlantic Ocean. A storm blew them off course so instead of landing in Virginia, they landed further north in Cape Cod. The Pilgrims decided to settle in this area and called it Plymouth.

Explanation:

The weather was much colder than what the Pilgrims had prepared for and the first winter was devastating. The Pilgrims struggled to build homes, and many families crowded into the few homes that were built. Food was scarce, and many Pilgrims starved to death that first winter.

Some people died. Some people were seasick. Other people became sick because there was not good food to eat. Because the journey took longer than they thought it would, the passengers and the sailors ran out of good food.
