Ellis Island was built in 1892 as the
1st “Immigration Center”
Later, closed in the 1940s
Today it is a museum.
•The goal was to “screen” immigrants coming from Europe.
•Immigrants took physical examinations and were held at Ellis Island before they were released to the US mainland.

Immigrants Settle in Cities
Industrialization leads to urbanization, or growth of cities
Most immigrants settle in cities; get cheap housing, factory jobs
Americanization—assimilate people into main culture
Schools, voluntary groups teach citizenship skills
English, American history, cooking, etiquette
Ethnic communities provide social support

Migration from Country to City Farm technology decreases need for laborers; people
move to cities
Many African Americans in South lose their livelihood
1890–1910, move to cities in North, West to escape racial violence
Find segregation, discrimination in North too
Competition for jobs between blacks, white immigrants causes tension

Water 1860s cities have inadequate or no piped water, indoor
plumbing rare Filtration introduced 1870s, chlorination in 1908
Sanitation Streets: manure, open gutters, factory smoke, poor trash
collection Contractors hired to sweep streets, collect garbage, clean
outhouses-------often do not do job properly By 1900, cities develop sewer lines, create sanitation
departments

Crime As population grows, thieves flourish
Early police forces too small to be effective
Fire Fire hazards: limited water, wood houses, candles, kerosene heaters Most firefighters volunteers, not always available 1900, most cities have full-time, professional fire departments Fire sprinklers, non-flammable building materials make cities safer

Housing Working-class families live in houses on outskirts or boardinghouses
Later, row houses built for single families
Immigrants take over row houses, 2–3 families per house
Tenements—multifamily urban dwellings, are overcrowded, unsanitary
Transportation Mass transit —move large numbers of people along fixed routes
By 20th century, transit systems link city to suburbs

The Grange
•Patrons of Husbandry (Grange) founded by Oliver Kelly (MN)
What?
•Cooperative movement - farmers pooled their money to make shared purchases of machinery, supplies, insurance, etc.

How?

Populist Party & Free Silver
Why?
•Populists believed that this would solve nearly all of the farmer’s problems
•They wanted to use both silver and gold coins, thus increasing the amount of money in the country
What?
•All money would be worth less, a situation that was bad for creditors (big banks) and good for debtors (farmers)
•Federal ownership of the railroads
•Graduated income tax
