The effects of the Transcontinental Railroad on the a United State
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

The building of the Transcontinental Railroad had a huge impact on American life and economy. It greatly sped up travel time. Before the railroad, you needed around six months to travel from the coast of California to New York and after it started with the operation you needed only around one week. This meant more expansion of the industry, trade, businesses, and expansion of populated areas. Unfortunately many Native American tribes were displaced and the US military was called in to fight the tribes.

Rudiy27

"Terence V Powderly leader of the knights of labor did not a post strike" is TRUE.

Answer: Option A

<u>Explanation:</u>

In 1870s and in initial 1880s, Terence V. Powderly headed the Knights of Labor, a strong advocate for the eight hours day. Under the governance of Powderly, the union opposed the use of strikes and promoted democratic reform of society. Such action caused considerable discontent among the participants of the Knights of Labor, particularly among those representatives who supported strikes.

From 1886 the Knights of Labor split with Samuel Gompers. In December 1886, he named for an organizing meeting to take place in Columbus, Ohio. Gompers and his followers introduced a new union at that meeting named it "the American Labor Federation". Throughout the 1890s, the union was counted as one of the most powerful in the U.S.
