Farmers and Populism FOCUS QUESTION: What led to the rise of the Populist movement, and what effect did it have?

1. Price of Crops Goes Down because of overproduction! Problems for Farmers 1. Price of Crops Goes Down because of overproduction! - Produce too many crops (overproduction) Severe weather conditions/droughts An example of overproduction? Consider Diet Coke. . .

Problems for Farmers 2. Rising Debt (Farmers owe $$) Take out big loans that have high interest rates to pay for new machinery, seed, animals etc.

Problems for Farmers 3. Railroads are charging too much Railroad companies have no competition or regulation by the government Charge farmers very high rates to ship grain

Farmers Organize to Fight Back ! The Grange (1867-1870s) Goals: education about new farming techniques; fighting the new railroad rates Why would farmers organize?

Farmers Organize to Fight Back! Farmers’ Alliances Groups of farmers that continue to push for reform (change) “There are three great crops raised in Nebraska. One is the crop of corn, one a crop of freight rates and one a crop of interest. One is produced by farmers who sweat and toil to farm the land. The other is produced by men who sit in their offices and farm the farmers” – Farmers’ Alliance 1890.

The Government Helps . . . Sort of Interstate Commerce Commission set up by government to regulate railroads What French word describes how the government usually dealt with business? (“Hands off”)

Farmers feel like the two major American political parties aren’t representing their interests, so they form their own!

The Populist (People’s) Party - A political party formed by the Farmers’ Alliances to help farmers solve their problems Original Members of the Populist Party July 1892 Over 800 delegates from 69 Nebraska Counties met

The People’s Party Omaha Platform (write these next to 1- 8) Farmers see the need to unify under a single party Omaha Platform (write these next to 1- 8) Direct election of senators (the people should get to pick their senator) Secret ballot Bimetallism: (Using silver and gold to back money) Government Control of Railroads Graduated Income Tax (rich people pay more) 8 Hour Workday Government Regulation of Banks Increase $$ in circulation

The Election of 1896 William Jennings Bryan (Democrat) What was it about: “Cross of Gold” speech attacks those who oppose coining silver (goldbugs) Populists decide to support him Campaigns directly to the people, touring the country “You shall not press down upon the brow of labor this crown of thorns, you shall not crucify mankind upon a cross of gold” – Cross of Gold Speech by William Jennings Bryan 1896

What symbols do you see? (Cross, Crown of Thorns) What action is happening? (A man is standing on the Bible, holding a cross) What is the message? (William Jennings Bryan- man in cartoon thinks the common man (poor) are being “crucified”/killed by the rich because they are only allowing gold to be used to back $
