Answer: I'm 99.9% sure it was Jefferson's Republican's (or the Jeffersonian's)

Explanation: By the early 1790s, newspapers started calling Hamilton supporters "Federalists" and their opponents "Democrats", "Republicans", "Jeffersonians", or—much later—"Democratic-Republicans". Jefferson's supporters usually called themselves "Republicans" and their party the "Republican Party".
