The Compromise of 1877 called for the removal of all Federal troops from former Confederate states. The troops had been put there to protect the rights of newly freed black slaves. It called for at least one southern Democrat to be appointed to Hayes' cabinet. It called for another Transcontinental Railroad that would use Texas and Pacific in the south. It also called for measures to financially restore the south incurred after they lost the civil war.
