Onward Sweep of Populism at Cooper Union
The report covers the populist event at Cooper Union where Watson and Tibbles were notified as presidential ticket, with Alfred G. Boulton presiding. Watson’s lengthy speech defended popular government, attacked Wall Street influence, praised Henry George, and contrasted Jeffersonian democracy with Hamiltonian centralized power, while rallying laborers and Populists across factions.
