\to those of the white race who look to the incoming of those of foreign birth and strange tongue and habits for the prosperity of the south, were i permitted i would repeat what i say to my own race, cast down your bucket where you are. cast it down among the eight millions of negroes whose habits you know, whose fidelity and love you have tested. cast down your bucket among these people who have, without strikes and labour wars, tilled your fields, cleared your forests, builded your railroads and cities, and brought forth treasures from the bowels of the earth; and helped make possible this magnificent representation of the progress of the south. casting down your bucket among my people, you will find that they will buy your surplus land, make blossom the waste places in your fields, and run your factories. we shall stand by you with a devotion that no foreigner can approach, ready to lay down our lives, if need be, in defence of yours, interlacing our industrial, commercial, civil, and religious life with yours in a way that shall make the interests of both races one. in all things that are purely social we can be as separate as the fingers, yet one as the hand in all things essential to mutual progress.\

based on their claims in the excerpts, washington and pillow would most likely have taken different positions on which of the following social questions in the 1890s?
a can african americans continue to be employed in agricultural work?
b should immigrants be used to diversify the southern industrial labor force?
c can wealthy plantation owners promote progress in the south?
d should the southern economy abandon agricultural production?

Explanation:

Brief Explanations

The excerpt from Washington's address emphasizes relying on the Black population (African Americans) for the South's prosperity, while Pillow's idea involves using immigrants. For the 1890s social question, option B is about using immigrants to diversify the southern industrial labor force. Washington would likely oppose this (favoring Black labor), and Pillow would favor it, creating a position difference. Option A: Washington supports African Americans in agricultural work, so no difference. Option C: Not about labor source differences. Option D: About northern economy, irrelevant to their stances.

Answer:

B. Should immigrants be used to diversify the southern industrial labor force?
