(a) One key goal of the Populist Party in the 1890s was free coinage of silver to increase the money supply, raise crop prices, and make it easier for farmers to pay their debts.

(b) The Populist Party emerged because many farmers faced falling crop prices, heavy debts, and high railroad fees, so they banded together to demand economic change.

(c) A key similarity is that both the Populists and the Jacksonian Democrats claimed to represent ordinary people and stood against powerful economic elites like big banks and corporations.
