Around 1863, the Union States were looking for ideas about what to do after with Confederate States after they have lost in the Civil War. Lincoln proposed that 10% of the white men from Confederate States had to permanently recognize the freedom of the slaves. However, the Congress opted for the Wade-Davis Bill in 1864, which mentioned at least 50% of the white men had to recognize the freedom of the former slaves and grant them the right to vote. Lincoln did not sign this Bill, and that's why he "pocket veto" it.

Thus, the right answer is option d, the bill required a 50-percent oath of loyalty from citizens in a reconstructed state.

Growth was so rapid, however, that interest in a third party began to increase; in 1891 delegates from farm and labor organizations met in Cincinnati. No decision was made to form a political party, but when the Republican and Democratic parties both straddled the currency question at the 1892 presidential conventions, a convention was held at Omaha, and the Populist party was formed (1892).</span>
