The position of Lyle Koehler is that the issue with Witchcraft is due to the patriarchal relationship that existed in the society. While Laurie was of the fact that itr was due to the responses that people gave to the neurological changes they experienced.

<h3>What was the Salem Witchcraft?</h3>

This was the period that a lot of females in the town of Salem were said to have being under the influence of witchcraft. The women were said to have been practicing the magic of the devil hence they were termed witches.

The argument that is stronger here would be that of Laurie. We can see this from the fact that she gave us the reason that may have led to the hysteria. That would be the responses to neurological disorder. This may be a better way of getting the reason compared to that of the other author.

In the 1890s, the farmers' alliance evolved into the people's party (or populists), the era's greatest political insurgency. Ide
Naya [18.7K]

The Populist Party wanted to push several issues at the time in the 1890s in the United States.  

1. Free Silver--one of their biggest platforms was to change the currency to free silver to make it more affordable for the average person to use, instead of having money backed up by the gold standard.

2. Eight hour workday--They wanted to have workers and laborers be given an eight hour workday to give workers better working conditions than what they currently faced.

3. Income tax--They wanted to have a federal income tax (which later becomes the 16th Amendment) to have different taxes for people based on their income, or how much money they would make.  So essentially, a very wealthy person would have higher taxes than a poor person.

4. Regulation of the railroad--They wanted the government to regulate the railroad instead of the big businesses regulating the railroad and coming up with the prices.  The farmers especially felt as though it was not fair to allow the business owners to set the prices.

The Populist Party was essentially called the People's Party because they wanted to better represent and recognize the common people in government.
