Platform Adopted At Populist Convention
The Populist platform calls for prohibition or direct legislation by referendum and pledges to regulate spirit sales as a public nuisance, support initiative and referendum, defend public school text uniformity, oppose free passes for public officers, push salary-based public pay, and advocate public ownership of utilities. It endorses Cincinnati 1902 platform ties and condemns former party splits and leases acts while promising tax relief and continued Confederate soldier pensions.
