These statements explain what happened during the Haymarket Square incident.

Explanation:

The Haymarket Riot that occurred on May 4, 1886 has become a historic representation of the struggle for worker’s rights. The aim of the strike was to demand for an eight hours work per working day, so a group of anarchists announced a peaceful gathering at Haymarket Square, which is said to have crowded 1,500 people.

As the police tried to interfere to separate the workers and diverse the protest, a bomb was thrown from an unknown person, leading to seven police officers and one civilian being killed as well as several injured.

The demand for justice rose right after the incident, and eight men who were known as anarchists and were said to have organized the strike, were arrested with no actual evidence. After the illegal conviction of the eight men, four of them were hung, one kills himself, while the three others were pardoned after spending seven years in jail.

The correct answer is A) French.

Adventurers from this group decided that the ways of the native Americans were superior to what they knew: the French.

In a different attitude that the British colonists had, the French explorer respected the Native American Indian tribes and considered that Indians were smart people, so French did not have any problem in establishing better relationships than the English did. The French were more interested in the trade fur that in settle in colonies as the British did. So the French developed good trade relationships and gained the confidence of some Native American tribes.
