The "thugs" the author of the song is referencing are <em>the Pinkertons.</em>
- The Pinkertons (better known as <u>The Pinkerton National Detective Agency</u>) were a private security outfit founded by Allan Pinkerton in 1850 to tackle railway theft. Allan Pinkerton was a former deputy sheriff of Cook County in Illinois State.
- The Carnegie Steel Company, based in Homestead, Pennsylvania, in 1892, hired the Pinkerton police force to quell the rioting strike by discharged workers from the <u>Amalgamated Association of Iron and Steel Workers Union</u>. The Workers Union was striking over a proposed wage cut.
Thus, the Pinkertons were able to bust the 1877 railway strike by the Workers Union, suppressing Workers Unionism in the Steel Industry for many years.

The best answer is A.
Lines of latitude run east to west while lines of longitude run north to south. The equator is a line of latitude while the prime meridian is a line of longitude. Thus, lines of latitude measure distance north and south from the equator and lines of longitude measure distance east and west of the prime meridian.
America’s first political parties emerged in the late 1790s. The Democratic-Republicans were led by Thomas Jefferson. The Federalists were led by George Washington, Alexander Hamilton and John Adams.
The Democratic-Republican Party or the Anti-Administration party (Anti-Federalists) opposed the strong central government that the Constitution established when it went into effect in 1789, and the Federalist Party supported the ratification of the American Constitution. These two parties made up the first two-party system. The conflict over the passage of the federal Constitution of 1787 saw the formation of the first political parties or factions. George Washington served as a uniting force of political parties throughout the first eight years of the country's existence. But after his retirement, the country was divided into two ideologically opposed factions that were soon referred to as the Federalists and Republicans, the country's first two America's political parties.
