The election of 1896 resolve the "politics of stalemate" of the late nineteenth century when William McKinley of Ohio was being chose by The Republicans and he won after convincing the middle class that their prosperity depends on the gold standard. And because of this the election of 1896 brought an end to the populist crusade.
