The National Liberty Congress of Anti-Imperialists held by the League in August 1900 urged support for Bryan during the presidential campaign that year but his position on the Treaty of Paris, his financial policies, and his relationships with racist Southern Democrats alienated many anti-imperialists.
Thomas Mott Osborne, Oswald Garrison Villard, John Jay Chapman and others tried to organize a third party opposed to both William McKinley's imperialism and Bryan's free-silver financial policy.
Unable to recruit a prominent anti-imperialist Republican to head the ticket and failing to gain support from the Anti-Imperialist League, that movement collapsed.
