Speakers like William Jennings Bryan and Mary Elizabeth Lease were popular with farmers in the 1890s because they addressed the economic struggles and frustrations faced by agrarian communities. Their advocacy for issues like the free coinage of silver aimed to increase the money supply and alleviate debt burdens, resonating with farmers suffering from low crop prices and high interest rates. Additionally, their fiery oratory and ability to connect with grassroots concerns mobilized support for the Populist movement, which sought to challenge the political and economic dominance of industrial elites.
