The Republican coalition which came to power in nearly all the southern states set out to foster economic development and restore southern prosperity and to finance things such as railroad construction, to expand social services, and to establish a public school system.

Small merchants and former Whigs were interested in government aid for commercial and industrial development in the south. Small landowners expected to be favored over the wealthy landowners and for the Republican party to come to their aid when they faced the loss of their homesteads.
