When one usually thinks of Gilded Age politics, one usually thinks of the dominance of the relatively new “Grand Old Party”, who won all but two presidential elections between 1860 and 1908. During this time, the Republican Party was backed largely by Northern and Midwestern corporate and business interests, which once in power, crafted largely protectionist policies such as tariffs to secure and expand American enterprises. The Democratic Party of this period, was mainly backed by the interests of immigrant groups like the Irish and Germans, in addition to the “Solid South” which sought to block many of the Republican policies toward higher tariffs and civil rights for

Valley Forge was George Washington’s winter camp in the years 1777-78. It was a harsh and cold time for the Colonists troops then, and many were considering leaving the Continental Army or deserting. Many died but most of the troops survived the cold winter. They trained and drilled to become better soldiers. If I were a soldier at Valley Forge, I would choose to stay. One reason I would stay is that less than half the soldiers died or got sick in Valley Forge according to Estimates of Illness and Death. This means that your survival rate at Valley Forge was over 50%. Usually, that’s enough to keep me somewhere. So that’s one reason I would stay at Valley Forge. Another reason I would choose to stay at Valley Forge is that according to Doctor

Like many communities in Tennessee, Briceville's founding was tied to coal mining. Originally known as Slatestone Hollow, early miners used wagons to haul coal to Knoxville until the railroad connected Knoxville and Coal Creek. In 1888, Calvin Brice, who was then the president of the Lake Erie and Western Railroad and would later serve a single term in the U.S. Senate, requested the construction of a spur connecting Slatestone Hollow with Coal Creek. Upon completion of the spur, the community was renamed in Brice's honor. Although the population of Briceville has risen and fallen since the community's founding, residents have never been short of pests. Two common pests found in the area are bed bugs and fleas.

The United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners of America, UBCJA, is a labor union that advocates for worker rights. Founded in 1881, Peter J. McGuire and Gustav created the union in response to the lack of worker right laws in place. Since then, the union has grown substantially in size but still, lobbies for workers’ rights.

The town of Bannack was established on July 28, 1862 due to gold strike at Grasshopper creek. The city was small and put together quickly with logs, but briefly served as the capital of Montana Territory in 1864 (Bannack, Montana, 2017). Bannack was very remote and it was only connected to the rest of the world by the Montana Trail which lead to extremely high crime rates and a low population. The miners in Bannack earned $8 a day which is equivalent to a pound of chewing tobacco and a dollar as change. In 1865, the residents relocated to more productive gold sites situated along Alder Gulch.

The phrase “mad as a hatter” derives from a few places, one of them being the hat-shaping business of Danbury, Connecticut. The worker’s jobs were to shape hats, and they were being exposed to many toxic elements while doing so. “After years spent shaping hats, these workers began exhibiting signs of neurological damage—stumbling, slurred speech, and shaking that became known in the city of Danbury, Connecticut, once the hat-making capital of the world, as the Danbury Shakes’” (Belli 1). After many years being around toxic materials, hat-shapers in Danbury, Connecticut, started to have epileptic seizures, diarrhea, nervous system damage and more. This was because of all the mercury the hat-shapers were unknowingly ingesting or coming into contact

The Prairie Meadows Scholarship will help me to pursue an education at the University of Iowa. With the money given I would use it to earn a degree in engineering or a degree dealing something with the law. My favorite subjects in High School were math and science. My whole life math has always come easy to me and for some odd reason I have a passion for math. During my Junior year of High School I took my second physics class and gained an interest in physics. Besides math and science, when I was a young boy I always dreamed of becoming a police detective, I used to run around the house pretending I was getting all of the “bad guys”. Now a days I also find being a lawyer fun and intriguing. I plan on earning my degree and graduation college.
