Inflation was the same thing back then as it is now. Inflation rates were and are different in different countries, so the amount of inflation in each country is always different, depending on the solidity of the local currency. In Britain the inflation rate in 1900 was 4.5%. In the USA it was 16.9% but then fell to -2.4 the next year. Inflation rates in the US changed greatly from year to year and were often double-digit (but sometimes that was double-digit deflation)

Why is it that when there is low inflation workers will accept a low wage increase?
From the worker's perspective, raises are judged good or bad in reference to inflation. Its really a question of buying power more than the actual amount of money. Think of this example... If inflation is running 2% per year and you get a 2% raise, you break even. Your salary buys the same stuff at the start the year and the end of the year. If inflation is 2% and you got a 4% raise, you're now making more money than before. You have more buying power relative to the economy as a whole. So as a worker, your goal is to be able to buy more each time you get a raise. So if inflation is low, you can accept a lower raise and still increase buying power as long as the raise is higher than inflation. So when infaltion is low, a low raise (that's still bigger than the rate of inflation) just as effective as a large raise when inflation is high.
