In 1905, there was no federally mandated minimum wage in the United States. The concept of a minimum wage did not emerge until the 20th century, with the first state-level minimum wage laws being enacted in the 1910s. Labor conditions during this time varied widely, and wages were often determined by the market and local conditions rather than any legal standard.
