Answer:

Knights of Labor. ... Named the Noble Order of the Knights of Labor by its first leader, Uriah Smith Stephens, it originated as a secret organization meant to protect its members from employer retaliations. Secrecy also gave the organization an emotional appeal. Its members included low skilled workers, railroad workers, immigrants, and steel workers. As membership expanded, the Knights began to function more as a labor union and less of a secret organization. During the 1880's, the Knights of Labor played a huge role in independent and third-party movements.

How do state and local elections compare to national elections

artcher [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

''Most of the state and local level public officials in the U.S. are elected directly or indirectly. An election is the process by which people choose their representatives for governance. In the U.S., each state controls and regulates state and local elections. State law and state constitutions regulate elections at the state and local level. The state legislature controls state laws and state constitutions. Every state is free to conduct its elections and limit its electorate. State legislatures and the executive are elected separately. In all states, the governor and lieutenant governor are elected. Additionally, all members of the state legislatures are elected. The legislative branches in local level, county, and city government are filled by election. Sheriffs and Mayors at the local level are also elected''
