What was the connection between the Granger Movement/laws and the populist party?

The nation transformed into an urban, industrial power, but this could only come at the expense of America's rural, agrarian community.

Explanation:

In the late 1800s, America's Gilded Age was a period of rapid change in society, technology and the economy. As with anything gilded, things aren't always quite as good as they seem on the surface. The nation transformed into an urban, industrial power, but this could only come at the expense of America's rural, agrarian community. As farmers became more distressed and discontented, they organized into one of the strongest Third Party movements in American history.
