America was very interested in Cuba because of the crops/resources they grew in their country. Since Cuba is only 90 miles from the United States, the government wanted to make sure that this country would be open to American influence/trade. This resulted in America establishing a trading relationship with Cuba, primarily receiving sugar from this country. However, this relationship would not last forever, as the leader of Cuba who was friendly with the US (Batista) was replaced by Fidel Castro, an anti-American communist.
The Populist party wanted the government to take over the railroads.
The Populist party mostly made up of farmers who had several grievances such as:
- railroads overcharging them to transport their goods
- the use of gold instead of silver to back the U.S. dollar
- high charges on telegraph
In order to address these, they formed the Populist party where they called on the U.S. government to take over the railroads and telegraph wires so that the government would give them better rates.
In conclusion, the Populist party wanted more government interference so that they would be able to access the railroad and telegraph at cheaper rates.
