In the early 20th cent., the court appeared to be highly conservative in its views. It showed in general a rigid adherence to stare decisis
(the rule that precedents are to be followed), a tendency to prevent
the states from adopting laws that restricted business in its employment
practices and other activities, and little disposition to restrain the
states from restricting civil liberties, as in the Plessy v. Ferguson
case (1896), which upheld the right of states to enforce
segregationist Jim Crow legislation in many Southern states. In the
Insular Cases (1901), arising out of questions concerning the status of
peoples in the territories acquired as a result of the Spanish American
War, the court asserted that the civil rights guaranteed by the
Constitution did not automatically apply to the people of an annexed
territory, i.e., the Constitution did not follow the flag.

Explanation:
The constitution of the United States is inspired by the political ideas of the liberal thinkers of the era: John Locke, Montesquieu, Rosseau, and David Hume, among others.
These thinkers developed the idea of limited goverment. Governments should not be all powerful like an absolute monarchy, they instead should have limited powers and serve the people.
The three branches of the U.S. government check their powers and make sure that no branch becomes too powerful.
