Backward glance at West Virginia politics in 1900
A look at 1900 West Virginia politics contrasts McKinley era policy with modern issues. The piece notes Republican dominance then under McKinley and Atkinson, a hot governor’s race between Albert White and John Holt, and election-contest tactics including alleged black voter suppression. It also recalls past reporting on race, women’s rights, and clerical promotion gender biases in Charleston.
