Document 4: saum song bo describing building the
ong bo describing building the pedestal of the statue of liberty 1880.
a paper was presented to me yesterday for inspection, and i found it to be specially drawn up for subscription among my countrymen toward the pedestal fund of the statue of liberty in new york. seeing that the heading is an appeal to american citizens, to their love of country and liberty, i feel that
my countrymen and myself are honored in being thus appealed to as citizens in the cause of liberty. but
the word liberty makes me think of the fact that this country is the land of liberty for men of all nations
except the chinese. i consider it as an insult to us chinese to call on us to contribute toward building in
this land a pedestal for a statue of liberty. that statue represents liberty holding a torch which lights the
passage of those of all nations who come into this country. but are the chinese allowed to come? as for
the chinese who are here, are they allowed to enjoy liberty as men of all other nationalities enjoy it? are
they allowed to go about everywhere free from the insults, abuse, assaults, wrongs and injuries from
which men of other nationalities are free?

the progressive era is a period of widespread social activism and political reform across the united states that spanned from the 1890s to the 1920s.[1] the main objectives of the progressive movement were eliminating problems caused by industrialization, urbanization, immigration, and political corruption.

the movement primarily targeted political machines and their bosses. by taking down these corrupt representatives in office, a further means of direct democracy would be established. they also sought regulation of monopolies (trust busting) and corporations through antitrust laws, which were seen as a way to promote equal competition for the advantage of legitimate competitors.

many progressives supported prohibition of alcoholic beverages, ostensibly to destroy the political power of local bosses based in saloons, but others out of a religious motivation. at the same time, women's suffrage was promoted to bring a "purer" female vote into the arena.a third theme was building an efficiency movement in every sector that could identify old ways that needed modernizing, and bring to bear scientific, medical and engineering solutions; a key part of the efficiency movement was scientific management, or "taylorism".
