• To Arms – a call to go to war, to pick up guns and fight – newspapers often used
headlines “To Arms” to encourage men to join a war effort.
• migration – movement of a group or groups of people from one place to another
such as the migration of Americans west during the mid 1800s.
• tariff – tax on imported goods: Today – electronics, clothing, etc. 1800s – cotton,
hemp, wool, clothes, etc. The North/New England area favored the tariff because
they could sell their products at a higher price; the Southern states disliked the
tariff because of the increase in price of those same products/goods.
• suffrage – the right to vote.
• Depression – economic slump that happens when manufacturers make more stuff
than people will buy causing them to lower prices and make little or no profit on
what they sell.
