US HISTORY Economic and Social Change Mid-1800s

ECONOMIC CHANGE  West: more settlement, growth of farming (corn, wheat), land exploitation  North: industrialization  South: greater reliance on farming (cotton) and slavery because of industrialization

 Center of America moving west  In 1790, only NYC and Philadelphia had over 20,000 people  By 1860, there were 43 substantial cities

Life on the farming frontier  Loneliness, hardship, disease, death  Rugged individualism  Tobacco exhausts land; go WEST  John Deere—steel plow  Cyrus McCormick— mechanical reaper  Beaver, buffalo, sea otters depleted  Destruction vs. preservation

Lives of workers --Child labor --Young women working at Lowell, MA, in mills (until marriage) --boring, repetitive work --craftsmanship is gone --workers are more easily replaced --dangerous working conditions around fast-moving machines --people divided into rich, middle class, poor --immigration supplements work force

Mid-1800s Major wave of immigrants who could work in factories and farm in the West

Irish immigrants– 1 ½ million Come because of potato famine Catholic religion and beer (for which they are often persecuted) Settle in cities, often in poverty Take lowest jobs (canal and RR building)

How Irish get ahead Often vote Democratic Political machines Jobs in police force or in politics

German immigrants— almost as many Come for political reasons Often settle out west (farms, or in cities like Milwaukee), more skilled Also bring beer Introduce Conestoga wagon, Christmas tree, kindergarten

Nativism: hatred of immigrants

General conditions in large cities Large # of immigrants swell city sizes Slums Bad lighting Dirty water/disease Rats Garbage issues

Market revolution leads to growth Parts of country are connected

Innovations in transportation Toll roads National Road: Cumberland Road Canals Railroads Pullman RR cars
