In the last two decades of the 19th century, railroads had made sweeping changes in the lives of many of Texas' mostly rural, mostly agrarian citizens and forever altered the face of the state. Settlements formed around temporary railroad-workers' camps. Speculators created brand-new towns out of virgin prairie beside the gleaming rails. And existing communities that were bypassed by the tracks often curled up their municipal toes and died unless they were willing to pick up businesses, homes and churches and move to the rails.
The arrival of railroad transportation expanded Texas farmers' and ranchers' markets by providing faster and cheaper shipping of products. Cattle raisers were no longer forced to trail their herds long miles to railheads in the Midwest. In their classic Texas history text, Texas, the Lone Star State, Rupert Richardson, Ernest Wallace, and Adrian Anderson summarized it this way: " ... railroads were the key to progress and prosperity at the end of the 19th century."

Wallace's liberal approach biased their opinions about Truman's decision to change the New Deal legislation and the foreign policy to contain Communism.
Answer:
President Adams wanted to protect the attack on the US ships by the French.
Explanation:
According to the Jay treaty, the British commander agreed to pull off their soldiers from Ohio Valley. But the French took this Jay treaty as the violation to its own treaty with U.S. and they began attacking the ships of the United States.
Then President Adams sent representatives to France government and asked them to end the attack on the U.S. ships. But the French minister refused to speak to Adams's representatives and instead sent some secret agents and said they the French would not stop attacking the U.S. ship unless they receive a huge tribute of money from the Americans.
Thus the U.S congress inducted many army people and built new ships for the U.S navies and launched wars on the seas against the French.
