Allentown Split Casts Shadow on 1887 Democratic Rift
Nine years earlier at Allentown the Democratic convention battled over protection and tariff policy. Randall clung to the protective system while Cleveland pressed for a new direction, aided by Scott Beatt and Singerly's anti Randall coalition. The confrontation ended with Randall’s grip loosening as Beatt gained patronage and Ohio-like pressure built toward a tariff shift, signaling a turning point in Democratic history.
