Here is the answer. After 1860, the methods that railroads and monopolies used to gain valuable land and how people showed their opposition to the power of railroads and monopolies is this: Acres of land were given to rail roads. The valuable lands were oil, lumber, and metal. People struggled for these resources so the legislatures were bribed. Hope this helps.
