The Stalwarts and the Half-Breeds were two factions within the Republican Party in the late 19th century, particularly during the presidency of Rutherford B. Hayes. The Stalwarts, led by figures like Roscoe Conkling, supported the traditional patronage system and the political machine, advocating for the continuation of the spoils system. In contrast, the Half-Breeds, led by James G. Blaine, favored civil service reform and a more merit-based approach to government appointments. This rivalry highlighted the broader tensions within the party regarding issues of reform and political patronage.
