THE southerners were the defeated ones. They were at the mercy of the federal government. The leaders all lost their vote . Blacks and carpetbaggers ruled. The old plantations could not make a living with hired labor and were broken up and sold for taxes. Secret organizations gained some power with terrorist tactics over the blacks. A new Democratic party formed and it gradually gained power, finally winning the presidency in 1884 after reconstruction ended.
