Answer:

Explanation:

The Elkins Act (1903) is a federal law of The United States that amended the Interstate Commerce Act of 1887. The Act <em>targeted rebates offered to certain companies for shipping their products while farmers and small businesses paid full price for shipping their goods</em>. The Elkins Act made unlawful railroad rebates or discounts. This needed everyone to pay the same rate to use the rail lines to reduce transportation cost inequalities and unbalanced care. <em>The high prices put smaller companies and farmers out of business while larger firms delivered cheaper.</em>

KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

Merchants in cities like Philadelphia and Boston.

Explanation:

The Great Awakening was a difference in the religious ideas that changed the colonies in America during the 1730 and 1740. This religious movement began when Christian ministers visited one town to another by giving words of Christ and about forgiveness and sins. It broke the New England ministry and many colonists into two groups. Those who followed the new ideas called the New lights and those who embraced the old traditional ideas known as the Old Lights.
