Population Trends and Political Shifts in the Deep South 1902
The Austin Tribune reports on shifting racial demographics and political dynamics in southern states. It cites census data showing a rising nonwhite population in Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, and Texas, the Northward migration of Black voters, and the reactions of local leaders to franchise expansion. References to Montgomery, Booker T. Washington, and party alignments weave a picture of evolving power structures and federal appointments amid contested suffrage.
