CHECK UP! How did the Homestead Act, Pacific
Railway Act, and Newlands Reclamation Act have a profound effect on the course of western development. What does each of these acts propose? And what do they tell us about the role of the federal government in the development of the West, particularly in regards to railroads, agriculture, and commerce?

BELLWORK “Do to others as ye would that others should do to you." .. . We pray
them to remember that, for the sake of principle, their forefathers were compelled to leave, therefore driven from the old world, and that the winds of persecution wafted them over the great waters and landed them on the shores of the new world, when the Indian was the sole lord and proprietor of these extensive domains-Let them remember in what way they were received by the savage of America, when power was in his hand, and his ferocity could not be restrained by any human arm. We urge them to bear in mind, that those who would not ask of them a cup of cold water, and a spot of earth ... are the descendants of these, whose origin, as inhabitants of North America, history and tradition are alike insufficient to reveal. Let them bring to remembrance all these facts, and they cannot, and we are sure, they will not fail to remember, and sympathize with us in these our trials and sufferings.” –Appeal of the Cherokee Nation
How would you summarize the relationship between Native Americans and the government of the United States?

“I am tired of fighting. Our chiefs are killed….The old men are all dead…..I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find….Hear me, my chiefs! I am tired. My heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever.”
Chief Joseph, Nez Perce
