2 Farmers & Populism
3 SWBAT Explain difficulties farmers faced in the West & the rise of the Populist Party Do Now: AGREE or DISAGREE, explain. So long as all the increased wealth which modern progress brings goes but to build up great fortunes, to increase luxury and make sharper the contrast between the House of Have and the House of Want, progress is not real and cannot be permanent.
4 American West Settlement of the Last Frontier was achieved through mining, cattle ranching, & farming
5 American West Homestead Act (1862)- provided free land (previously controlled by fed. gov) for settlers in the West; 160 acres each (had to farm land for 5 yrs)!
6 Agricultural Revolution Assisted in the exploitation of land in the West - Railroads carried goods to eastern markets - Barbed wire - Steel plows - Mechanical farm tools = less workers harvested larger crops bonanza farms - Mining: gold, silver, copper, lead, ore - Omaha, Denver, San Francisco = urban centers
7 Agricultural Revolution Inventions and Adaptations for Settling the Great Plains
8 American West Frederick Jackson Turner: - The Significance of the Frontier in American History - claimed life in the West gave rise to inventiveness, independence, equality, & unique American customs - Why do you think he made these claims?

10 Problems for Farmers in the West 6. Loneliness 7. Conflicts with Native Americans 8. Debt b/c of expensive farm equipment 9. Charged high prices by railroad for storage & transport of products
11 The Grange Grange- org. founded in 1867, meant to develop social ties among farmers - Farmers became politically active on state & local level - Formed cooperative groups Due to poor economic conditions, farmers pressed for political changes to limit power of railroads
12
13 *Supreme Court Actions* States pass laws regulating railroads Wabash, St. Louis, & Pacific Railway Co. v. Illinois States cannot regulate rates on interstate routes only federal gov t can regulate interstate trade Paved the way for the creation of the Interstate Commerce Commission in 1887
14 The Populists Grange Party Declines Populists (people s party) rise Motto: raise less corn and more hell
15 The Populists The Populist Partyestablished in 1891 Also known as the People s Party Dedicated to reform and radical change in the social, economic, & political situation in the US
16 Goals of the Populists 1. Government control of railroads, telephones, & telegraphs 2. Progressive income tax 3. Secret ballot
17 Goals of the Populists 4. Direct election of Senators 5. 8 hour work day 6. Free & unlimited silver coinage (wanted more $ in circulation so farmers could pay their debt more easily)
18 Goals of the Populists 7. Restricted immigration 8. Women s suffrage
19 Populist Success million popular vote; 22 electoral votes senators, 7 representatives *1896 William Jennings Bryan (Populist) narrowly loses to William McKinley (Republican) *(Bryan ran 3 times and never won!) *(McKinley won with support of Big Business)
20
21 End of the Populists Populists disappeared as a political party by as urban population increased (immigration) increase in demand for food prices for food increase farmers become prosperous
22 End of Populists Populist ideas were later adopted by other political parties
