I would say the Republican party was always been more "conservative" than the democratic party, but it is SO tough to answer this question, for the nature of political parties were so different in the 19th century. Both were huge tents with a ton of factions. Today, there is a coherent ideology for both parties. Some constants, however, are these:
1) Republicans have always been the party of business and the rich.
2) Democrats have always been the party of the "working man".
