The Populists, or the People's Party, was a political agrarian-based movement seeking for better work conditions for both farmers and agrarian workers, in the late 19th century. Many were the early populists' motivations, but the biggest ones were:

  1. Strengthening political democracy.
  2. Providing farmers with economic equality with industries and businesses.
