South Carolina Senator McLaurin Puts Plan for New Party
Senator McLaurin launches a bid to break the solid South by trading federal patronage to democrats who join a new party. He envisions a white republican movement that excludes black voters, drawing support from mill owners and business interests while threatening Tillman loyalists. The plan, still in flux, aims to organize county by county and reshape state politics for years ahead.
