By the end of the Civil war the South was left way behind the Northern States. On one trip to the South, Oliver Hudson Kelley from the Department of Agriculture witnessed the primitive agriculture practices of the people and the problems they were facing due to the monopolistic practices of railway companies which were charging high rates for transport their crop.

Oliver Hudson Kelley believed there was a better way to counter this and developed a small group called the grange, which were small community gathering of farmers that wanted to educate and support one another.

Grange's can be called cooperative movements by local farmers in order to improve their conditions and voice their concerns. Soon, the concept of Grange started to spread to other parts of the country, what can only be described as populism.

By the 1870s, there was a National Grange overlooking a smaller grange community in every State. The movement became so powerful, they were able to influence politics and legislation.

allochka39001 [22]

The social order of pre-Revolutionary France was composed of three states: the 1st state was made up of clergymen, the 2nd state included all the nobility, and the 3rd state was formed by the rest of the population of France, including the peasantry, the bourgeoisie, and the city workers. The experiences of the nobility and the bourgeoisie were very different during this period. The nobiity included around 1-2% of the population of the country. They were mostly exempt from taxes and for the most part, did not have a job. On the other hand, the bourgeoisie was a large percentage of the population, and carried a significant tax burden. This class was the most educated and wealthiest part of the 3rd State, and they resented the privileges of the nobles, in particular the tax exemptions. The conflict between these classes was a reason for the French Revolution.

According to this ruling, the government can regulate speech if the words that were spoken (or printed) represent a "clear and present danger" to American society.

This ruling came as a consequence of the case <em>Schenck v. United States (1919)</em>, in which the general secretary of the U.S. Socialist Party opposed the implementation of the military draft. He distributed pamphlets encouraging people to oppose the draft. The unanimous decision was that his words represented a clear and present danger to the country, and therefore his arrest was justified.
