Answer:

Ida Minerva Tarbell (1857 — 1944) was part of the “muckraker” investigative journalism, a group of progressives who used their exposés to further develop the progressive political debate.  

Tarbell became well known for her The History of the Standard Oil Company, one of the most meticulous descriptions of the concentration of wealth and the growing power of trusts.

On the other hand, Theodore Roosevelt, although also preoccupied with the spread of trusts, was in the political side of progressivism. For example, Roosevelt activated the Sherman Antitrust Act of 1890, and became a national symbol and public advocate of progressivism.

Explanation:

Progressivism applied reforms aimed to strengthen the national government to stop the irresponsible concentration of wealth and the growing power of enormous trusts, which endangered the right of the common people to make a fair living.

Can u guys give me captions about Boston tea party?
Vanyuwa [196]
What do you mean by captions? Like quotes?


edit:

"The mistaken policy of the Stamp Act first disturbed this happy situation; but the flame thereby raised was soon extinguished by its repeal, and the old harmony restored, with all its concomitant advantage to our commerce. The subsequent act of another administration, which, not content with an established exclusion of foreign manufactures, began to make our own merchandise dearer to the consumers there, by heavy duties, revived it again; and combinations were entered into throughout the continent to stop trading with Britain till those duties should be repealed. All were accordingly repealed but one, the duty on tea. This was reserved (professedly so) as a standing claim and exercise of the right assumed by Parliament of laying such duties." ~ Benjamin Franklin

 "Patriotism is as much a virtue as justice, and is as necessary for the support of societies as natural affection is for the support of families." ~ Benjamin Rush - Patriot and Physician


"In about three hours from the time we went on board, we had thus broken and thrown overboard every tea chest to be found on the ship, while those in the other ships were disposing of the tea in the same way, at the same time. We were surrounded by the British armed ships, but no attempt was made to resist us...And it was observed at that time that the stillest night ensued that Boston had enjoyed for many months." ~ George Hewes Boston Tea Party - Eye Witness Account


"We were merry, in an undertone, at the idea of making so large a cup of tea for the fishes." ~ Joshua Wyeth
