Progressivism in SC Progressive movement began in the cities and state level. Reached audiences through “Muckraking” journalists (exposed problems through newspapers, stories, etc) SC had little concern for many of the national issues. Due to lack of immigrants and no big cities.

Progressivism in SC Progressive Era Reforms Labor Laws Government Women’s Suffrage Progressive Era Reforms Government Reforms Education Temperance& Prohibition

Labor Reforms Columbia’s The State, muckraking journalist spoke out against child labor. Reforms: 1) Change the minimum working age from ten to twelve. 2) Safer working conditions (health and literacy) Eventually led to the end of Child Labor in the State.

Education Compulsory attendance law (only 1/3 of SC children went to school in 1900, those who did went 4 months or less) Increased funding and the establishment of an adult school. Land grant colleges- government $$ to assist farmers: Clemson, SC State and Claflin College (African American Schools = segregation)

Temperance Movement & Prohibition Prohibit (stop) the sale, manufacturing and consumption of alcohol Goals- hope to curb crime and improve family life. Governor Tillman= Dispensary System (state controls the sale of alcohol) By the early 20th century many counties passed prohibition laws. In 1915 SC passed a prohibition law and in 1918 the US passed the 18th Amendment which outlawed the sale and distribution of alcohol.

Temperance Movement & Prohibition Result?? Did Not Work Many engaged in making, distributing or drinking illegal alcohol

Women’s Suffrage Women’s Right to Vote 19th Amendment passed in 1919 (gave women the right to vote) SC legislature did not ratify the 19th amendment until 1967 SC women were able to vote because of ratification of other states.

Richard Manning

Government Reforms Throughout the nation, reforms were made to expand democracy (secret ballot, primary elections, direct election of Senators, income tax) SC ‘reforms’ limit voting power of mill workers. (Similar to African American vote)

Governmental Reforms Two Governors – Robert Cooper & Richard Manning Robert Cooper- supported raising taxes to increase spending of public education and supported a longer school year (7months) Richard Manning- helped establish a fair tax system, established schools, improved the administration of hospitals, and paved SC’s roads.
