Both of these groups are radical progressives groups with much of the same principal. The difference was just the way they approached the same problems and how far they would fight for some things The socialist party approached problems by trying to get other socialist in positions such of local and state as well as federal positions. This worked to a extent but it was not as effective as the IWW that was formed by William Haywood. His approach to problems was more direct and used general strikes, general strikes got the group noticed by the government. The IWW was responsible for strikes such as the silk strike,Mesabi Range Iron strike,and the Lawrence Textile Strike. The government did not take kindly to the actions of the IWW and arrested,tar and feathered, and lyned them. There were also other progressive groups such as the Women's Christian Temperance Union and the Anti saloon League. These two groups both supported the prohibition of Liquor, they focused on this because they saw drinking as a vice that caused men to waste their money and fight each other. They worked there way from bar to bar to city to city to state to state to get support for their belief. They did not even get half of the public's support and still were effective in their mission and got the 19th Amendment to pass, which outlawed the sell of liquor
