Explanation:

Fallacy is defined as an argument that seems to be logic in order to disqualify another idea or to show that the first one is better. Ad populum comes from Latin and it refers to appeal to a big audience in order to make an argument seem more convincing than it is. In this question, ad populum is being used at the end, when Hammond mentions that the North would have reacted in the same way as the South if the population living there had received lecturers and agitators.
