Independence Party Rising From Populist Faction
Joan Temple Grave argues that the Independence Party represents a freer, more honest political path than the old Democratic machine and Populist faction. She cites Hearst’s neutral stance at the convention, the decline of Watson’s Populists, and the party’s gains in New York as evidence for a growing national movement of reform minded citizens.
