Populist Split Deepens Over Omaha Platform Clash
Waenserox March 7 The Populist factions split into one plank silverites and Omaha platform socialists. Taubeneck leads the silverite wing with several senators and congressmen backing him. The Omaha faction denounces Taubeneck and accuses him of selling out Populism while the reform press notes party unity behind the Omaha platform and calls for radical taxation of unearned incomes amid internal conflict. Debs is praised by some at Chicago events but no clear presidential candidate emerges for Omaha allies.
