It calls for public lands reserved for actual tilth, repeal of most land disposal laws, restoring land grants to the public domain, unlimited coinage of silver, broad state taxation reform, taxing gross income of railroads and telegraphs, stringent property taxation, a graduated income tax, criminalizing grain options, reducing railroad passenger rates, and curbing stockyards and commission charges.
