answer: in 1900, there were no "workplace safety laws"!

explanation: at the beginning of this century, workers in the united states faced remarkably high health and safety risks on the job.

a century ago in 1900 about three hundred out of every one hundred thousand miners were killed on the job each year.

[industria] developments occurred within a legal and regulatory climate that diminished employer’s interest in safety. as a result, americans developed production methods that were both highly productive and often very dangerous.

treating native americans justly and giving them equal rights as citizens of the united states" was not a way in which americans sought to solve the indian problem. removal was the most popular idea.

that was the type of government the spanish colonists were used to.
