Democratic Sentinel, Volume 13, Number 24, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 5 July 1889 — ‘‘A White Man’s Party.” [ARTICLE]

‘‘A White Man’s Party.”

The President’s appointment of Lewis E. Parsons to be United States District Attorney in Alabama is direct proof that Mr. Harrison looks with favor upon the movement to make the Republican party of the South a “white man’s party.” Mr. Parsons is one of the originators and leaders in that movement in Alabama, and his appointment lias raised a small cyclone among the colored preachers and politicians of that State. Those whom Mr. McKinley called “our black allies” ought to understand by this time that they are w-anted only as “hewers of wood and drawers of water” for the Republican politicians.— New York World.
