What was the impact of the Progressive Movement
in Florida?

Answers

Answer 1

Explanation:

The return to political power of the Bourbon Democrats did not mean the overnight destruction of reforms of Reconstruction. Governor George F. Drew was an old-timer Whig, a native of New Hampshire, and a lumber man with Northern contacts. Drew supported closer contact with Northern investors and a new diverse economy.

Florida's backwardness and the need to rebuild the state economy were major considerations which even the agrarian interests could not overlook. The cotton kingdom was declining as new cotton fields opened in Texas. The Bourbon Democrats were still politically conservative, but they weren't ignorant of the realities of Gilded America.

They were also the major party in Florida as their Black Codes systematically eliminated most of the African-American vote, essential to the survival of a statewide Republican Party. Only in Jacksonville and Pensacola were blacks still in public office by 1880, thanks to Democratic gerrymandering. The Bourbon plan for a new state constitution in 1885 to oust the Reconstruction Constitution was the final legal nail on the coffin of politics.

The Civil War had not ended the status of the agrarian classes. Most rural African-Americans and poor whites found sharecropping and tenant farming the only routes to survival in much of Panhandle Florida. Others choose to vote with their feet by leaving rural Florida. However, until most of the Deep South, many Floridians headed southward rather than to the North due to the development of peninsular Florida. Florida was the only Southern state in the South who gained black people in the migration between states.

FEARS AND REACTIONS IN GILDED ERA FLORIDA

Rapid changes and a greatly restrictive political system were bound to create a good many critics. The Constitution of 1885, which would last well into the twentieth century, may have made Cabinet posts, Supreme Court judges, and regulators elected officials for the first time, but it was not a document for reform. The agrarian aristocracy soon allied with the new wealth of railroad men, lumber men, and citrus growers.

A leading spokesman for the small farmers against the railroads was Wilkinson Call, a colorful Populist who got the State of Florida to establish a Florida Railroad Commission to stop unfair rate practices. Henry Flagler and Henry Plant couldn't silence Call.

Less easily understood by many urban Floridians was the intense development of Nativism in Florida. The continued growth of the Klu Klux Klan and other militant groups was due not just to the demise of black political influence, but due to a fear of the waves of change entering Florida. Northerners were changing old institutions.

By the late 1890's this emotional nativism was also directed at the Roman Catholic Church in Florida. Under the demagoguery of Tom Watson and the Guardians of Liberty, many rural Floridians believed that Catholics were loyal only to the Pope. By 1916, anti-Catholic sentiment helped bolster an obscure Defuniak Springs minister Sydney Catts into the Florida Governorship. Catts never enacted his most serious attempts to close down monasteries and nunneries and a counterattack led by Father Michael Curley changed public opinion in the large cities.

what did citizen representation look like under the articles of confederation???

Answers

Answer:

The colonial intellectual and political leaders in the 1760s and ’70s closely read history to compare governments and their effectiveness of rule. They were especially concerned with the history of liberty in Britain, and were primarily influenced by the Country Party (which opposed the Court Party, which held power). The Country Party relied heavily on the classical republicanism of Roman heritage and celebrated the ideals of duty and virtuous citizenship in a republic. This approach produced the American political ideology of republicanism, which by 1775 had become widespread in the United States. Republicanism, based on both ancient Greek and Renaissance European thought, has been a central part of American political culture and it strongly influenced the Founding Fathers.

Republicanism and Virtue

Many leaders of the Patriot cause in the Revolution, as well as early leaders of the new United States, seemed to embody this republican ideal; these included George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson. Revolutionary republicanism was centered on the ideal of limiting corruption and greed. Virtue was of the utmost importance for citizens and representatives. Revolutionaries aimed to avoid the materialism that contributed to the Roman Empire’s downfall. A virtuous citizen was considered one who spurned monetary compensation and made a commitment to resist and eradicate corruption. The Republic was considered sacred; therefore it was necessary to serve the state in a truly representative way, setting aside self-interest and individual will.

What do you mean by "The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone"?

The genuine account of how ancient Egyptian hieroglyphics were deciphered is told in The Riddle of the Rosetta Stone.

Since hieroglyphics were eventually superseded by another language, Coptic, and subsequently Arabic, ancient Egyptian writing has been shrouded in mystery for more than 1400 years.

No living Egyptians could read the hieroglyphic writing of his forefathers by the time the Greek invaders came.

The Rosetta Stone, as it came to be known, was the key to understanding ancient Egyptian script. It has a message written in Greek, demotic, and hieroglyphics, three different languages.

The only way to solve the puzzle, according to scientists and historians, was to compare the Greek characters with the hieroglyphics.

Therefore, James Cross Giblin’s attitude toward the achievements of Thomas Young is Giblin believes Young made valuable contributions to future researchers' attempts to decipher the hieroglyphs.

The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hydeby Robert Louis StevensonPart 1Mr. Utterson the lawyer was a man of a rugged countenance, that was never lighted by a smile; cold, scanty and embarrassed in discourse; backward in sentiment; lean, long, dusty, dreary, and yet somehow lovable. At friendly meetings, and when the wine was to his taste, something eminently human beaconed from his eye; something indeed which never found its way into his talk, but which spoke not only in these silent symbols of the after-dinner face, but more often and loudly in the acts of his life. He was austere with himself; drank gin when he was alone, to mortify a taste for vintages; and though he enjoyed the theatre, had not crossed the doors of one for twenty years. But he had an approved tolerance for others; sometimes wondering, almost with envy, at the high pressure of spirits involved in their misdeeds; and in any extremity inclined to help rather than to reprove."I incline to, Cain's heresy*," he used to say. "I let my brother go to the devil in his quaintly 'own way.'" In this character, it was frequently his fortune to be the last reputable acquaintance and the last good influence in the lives of down-going men. And to such as these, so long as they came about his chambers, he never marked a shade of change in his demeanour.No doubt the feat was easy to Mr. Utterson; for he was undemonstrative at the best, and even his friendship seemed to be founded in a similar catholicity of good-nature. It is the mark of a modest man to accept his friendly circle ready-made from the hands of opportunity; and that was the lawyer's way. His friends were those of his own blood or those whom he had known the longest; his affections, like ivy, were the growth of time, they implied no aptness in the object. Hence, no doubt, the bond that united him to Mr. Richard Enfield, his distant kinsman, the well-known man about town. It was a nut to crack for many, what these two could see in each other, or what subject they could find in common. It was reported by those who encountered them in their Sunday walks, that they said nothing, looked singularly dull, and would hail with obvious relief the appearance of a friend. For all that, the two men put the greatest store by these excursions, counted them the chief jewel of each week, and not only set aside occasions of pleasure, but even resisted the calls of business, that they might enjoy them uninterrupted.*The biblical story of Cain and Abel is a story about two brothers who gave offerings to God. Abels offering was accepted by God, but Cains was not. Jealous, Cain killed his brother. When God asked Cain where Abel was, Cain said, "Am I my brothers keeper?" By saying this, Cain implied that what his brother did was his own business.
