Southern democrats appealed to small farmers after the Civil War because they wanted to get the farmers to see that building roads would end in higher taxes. They also wanted to get the farmers to see that the higher taxes would happen if schools were to be built.
One way in which Southern Democrats appealed to small farmers was by arguing that the construction of new roads led to higher taxes. They made the same argument in terms of building new schools.
