Answer 1

a

Answer 2

Most students should be able to describe the Homestead and Pullman strikes, but they should also see that these represented a more aggressive stance by organized labor. Better students will go back to the material from the previous chapter and compare these strikes with the Great Railway Strike of 1877 . Students should also be able to compare the efforts of Eugene V. Debs, Samuel Gompers, and Terrence Powderly as union leaders. Better students may point out that laws such as the Sherman Anti-Trust Act were at least tentative steps toward moving government away from business. Students should also be able to explain why these strikes were not successful.
