U.S.S. Maine. Essay On a very tragic day, February 15 1898, the U.S.S. Maine second class armored battleship exploded. Tragically killed two hundred and sixty six men out of a three hundred and fifty four crew. Only eighty eight lucky men survived this horrible accident. The U.S.S. Maine was not a little ship. The ship weighed a unbelievable 6,682 tons, and the hull was longer than a football field. So this armored battleship had to be a threat to the Spanish. When anchored the ship suddenly explode by still unknown causes. Unfortunately fortunately for president McKinley, who was in office at the time, yellow journalism blew every thing up out of proportion and Americans grew angry and wanted to declare war against Spain. America declared war on Spain, which was a turning point for America which made it come out to the world as a upcoming world power. The explosion of the U.S.S. Maine wasn’t the only reason for going to war. In Cuba a rebellion was going on where the Cubans rebelled against the Spanish who were governing them. The Spanish killed over ten hundred thousand Cubans. While the rebellions and riots were going America had to protect the property and citizens that remained in Cuba, that’s why the Maine was sent. So after the explosion of the Maine the Spanish American war was fought, and president McKinley said, “The Cubans ought to be free and independent, and the government should be handed over to Cuban people”.

__A Picture is Worth a Thousand Words__

Lewis Hine used his extensive photography skills to achieve social reform. His camera became a powerful weapon of recording social injustices and labor abuses. At first, Hine photographed new immigrants on Ellis Island, but he eventually switched in 1908 to become an investigator and photographer for the National Child Labor Committee. Between 1908 and 1916 Hine traveled to factories across the U.S., reporting on child-labor abuse. He snuck into these factories by posing as an insurance agent, salesman, etc., and took pictures of the children working in horrible conditions. He often asked these children about their living conditions and their work at the factory. All of the photographs and information taken by Lewis Hine led to the passage of Child Labor Laws.

Hear Ye, Hear Ye, All Ye Gentlemen

//The Gentlemen's Agreement of 1907//

Tension was rising between Toyko and San Francisco, and soon enough, people were sure a battle would erupt. In California, children of Japanese descent were required to attend segregated schools. Since Japanese culture values education, the parents of these children were outraged that their children got education that was viewed as "worse" than white children's education. President Roosevelt began his investigation of the problem and attempted to get the California Board of Education to allow them to integrate, but it refused. Attempting to find a solution that would satisfy both ends, he began his work on the "Gentlemen's Agreement," which is a formal agreement to settle a problem.

Finally, on February 15, 1907 the final Agreement was decided. Japanese immigration had to be stopped in order for the schools to allow Japanese children in. Japan agreed that they would stop allowing laborers over to America in exchange for Japanese children being admitted into public "white" schools. The agreement was finalized after the Japanese children were let into schools with white children again.

This agreement was never written as a law by Congress. It was nullified, much to the fury of Japan, with the passing of the Immigration Act of 1924.

**__Ida Tarbell: What the Power of One Woman Can Do__** By Kyle Augustine The accomplishments of Ida Tarbell were noteworthy for her day, especially due to the fact that she was a woman. Tarbell worked, despite constant interference, to destroy the application of trusts in America. This was a daunting task for even members of Congress, and the most influential men, let alone women in America. Tarbell is one of the leading factors responsible for the termination of trusts and monopolies in America. She has shown Americans just what one woman can do when she becomes dedicated and relentless. During the late nineteenth century, women were just beginning to work outside of the domestic environment. Jobs began to become readily available, and the 19th Amendment had just secured women’s voting rights. Ida Tarbell, however, wanted to expand her influence beyond the workplace. She was generally appalled to J.P. Morgan’s, and other businessmen, use of trusts in America. Tarbell knew that the most effective way to be heard was through the press, so she began a magazine known as //The History of the Standard Oil Company.// This magazine was published for the sole purpose of bringing this manipulation of American citizens to light. Ida Tarbell had joined a select group of women with the power to be heard and even make the most powerful men take notice of her work. As the magazine advanced, political leaders in America decided it was time to take action against these trusts. Trusts and monopolies were the leading power throughout American decision makers. Yet, through the pressure put on Congress by strongly persuaded Americans, new acts policies had to be granted. Chief among these policies was the Sherman Anti Trust Act, which also led to the Supreme Court Case Standard Oil v. United States. This case forced Standard Oil to break itself into competing firms after being accuses guilty of using trusts and monopolizing America. Ida Tarbell had achieved everything she had hoped for with the publication of her magazine; furthermore, Tarbell proved that the power of women in America extends much farther than a domesticated environment.

By Kyle Augustine The Progressive Era was successful as a result of the actions taken by specific men and women who fought for reform, against all odds. One of the influential men of this time was Bob La Follette, also known as “fighting” Bob La Follette for his relentless demeanor. La Follette fought to "protect the people" from "selfish interests"  of American industrialists that had come to dominate American society during the nineteenth, and early twentieth, centuries. Bob La follette sought to attack, and eliminate, everything that took advantage of Americans. His tasks had included proposed tax reform, stronger regulation of American corporations, and the extension of democracy. La Follette’s most notable achievements included stronger control of railroad companies and their trusts. He viewed these trusts to be unconstitutional, due to the fact that they gave businessman power over the federal government. La Follette’s views became so renown that he was elected Senator in 1906. Wih this new power, La follette fought to protect the nations economy and make sure that it was controlled only by those authorized by the constitution. La Follette, and his followers, used the Progressive movement to gain nationwide support and pass regulation, he believed was necessary. His wife, Belle, founded the //La Follete’s Weekly Magazine// which rallied for women’s suffrage, an end to racial discrimination, etc. Unfortunately, La Follette faced a downfall with the election of Woodrow Wilson in the 1912 presidential election. While Wilson decided to enter World War I, LaFollette was against the war by all means. La Follete’s actions caused the newly elected president to declare treason against the prominent senator; however, all those opposed to the war viewed La Follete as a hero for opposing the war. He gained new confidence with these supporters and decided to run for presidential election in 1912 as the Progressive Party candidate. La Follette lost the election after gaining only one-sixth of votes. With all of Bob La Follette’s failures and achievements, he is, nevertheless, remembered for his heroic actions in reforming America. His contributions to the Progressive Party were one of the many factors that led to its overall popularity during the 20th century. Bob LaFollete certainly earned his “fighting” nickname, as he came to be known, because he was relentless in defying those in higher rank to achieve what he believed was right.

Dear Editor, I would have to disagree with your article/conclusion that Lewis Hine’s photography was in fact “yellow journalism”. I would define “yellow journalism” as a type of journalism that exaggerates news headlines in order to receive a profit. Lewis Hine was not that kind of person at all; he believed strongly against child labor and set a precedent for social reform. His photographs were not exaggerated; they were completely accurate and true. In fact, Hine often snuck into factories, by posing as an insurance agent, bible salesman, or a postcard seller, for his pictures. Therefore, he went into a setting of child labor and took pictures as they did their work, completely undercover. Finally, Lewis Hine did this for the children; profits were not his wish. Child labor is extremely significant, therefore there is no need to exaggerate an already world renowned problem. Sincerely, Earl Lee Riser

During great times of need, the American Spanish war broke out and President McKinley had little troops and many troops were lost in the American Civil War. So troop gathered and formed the first American Volunteer Calvary lots of different people joined it policemen, coal miners, ex-cowboys, college students, sports athletes and even some outlaws .It was made up of one thousand two hundred fifty men split up into three regiments. (only one of the three, saw action in Cuba). That regiment was called the rough riders, and later called the Roosevelt Rough Riders after when Roosevelt took over the regiment and lead a skilled battle plan which won the most important of the Spanish American War, the Battle of San Juan Hill. Which made Roosevelt legendary. Article by C. Gushen ￼
