Consolidation and Reduction

1t would seem from the consolidation OF
two of her principal street car companies
an account of which appears in the
local columns this morning, Savannah
is to have local transit system which will
enable people to ride for one fare to almost
any point within her limits The consolida-
ton of street car companies is being effected
in number of cities. The lines in Memphis,
Richmond. Atlanta, Macon and other
southern cities have all passed under one
management, aud it is claimed that
such consultations have resulted in better
service and more economical management.
The investments which northern capitalists
are making in southern enterprises show
that there is great confidence in the future
of the south. With a new hotel in this city
and good hotels at Warsaw and Tybee,
Savannah's attractions will be so increased
that she will be the favorite of the southern
cities.

Gov. Fleming's Inaugural.

1t is intended to make the inaugural of
Governor-elect Fleming, of Florida, a
memorable one. He is very popular in all
parts of the state, and quite general de-
sire has been expressed to be present on
that occasion. Several military companies
have arranged to take part in the cere-
monies. Veterans of the civil war, who
were members of Capt Jennings regiment,
will be in the procession, and school children
from different parts of the state will add
interest to the occasion.
Mr.. Chipley, chairman of the state demo.
cratic executive committee, suggested that
the Inauguration be made the occasion for
a grand military display and meeting of
the people at the capital. The suggestion
was approved, and it will be acted upon
with success.
The governor-elect conducted his cam
paign under great difficulties. There was
an epidemic Of fever in quite a number of
the towns of the state, and quarantine regu-
lations were so strict that it was difficult to
travel. Capt. Fleming managed to keep
very nearly all his appointments, however,
and succeeded in arousing great deal of
enthusiasm. He brought out quite large
vote Notwithstanding the difficulties under
which he labored. The people of the state
are proud of him, and if they don't give
him an Inauguration that will make his
heart glad, it will not be because of lack
of desire to do So

Col. shepard's Sudden Rise.

Few men in New York have attained
notoriety so quickly as Col. Elliott Shepard
the editor and proprietor of the Mail and
Express New Yorkers are unable to make
up their minds whether he is crank or
very religious and perhaps he is, but some
| things he does raise doubt whether his
piety rests upon a solid foundation
When he took hold of the Mail and Ea,-
press he began printing Biblical text
every day. This he continues, but the texts
he prints have not taught him to be chart
table and to avoid disturbing the peace
Not long ago he printed an editorial article,
in which he virtually repeated the scandals
| which have been circulated about Mr.
Cleveland, and expressed his belief in their
truth. He is now talking about making
war on the south. and, if the southern peo-
pie do not adopt his opinions, he threatens
to make the war bloody one.
For good while the colonel has been OBJ
jecting to the running of the Fifth avenue
coaches on Sundays. He thinks it wronZ
for the coaches to run on those DAYS. He
has always been large stakeholder in
them. No one has heard, however, that he
has refused the dividends the coaches
earned on Sundays. Now that he controls
the coaches, he will of course give them a
rest those days. But why does he not pro-
test against the running of street cars on
Sundayss He is interested in the Madison
avenue street car line, which parallels the
Fifth avenue coach line and wban tha
coaches stop running on Sundays the street
car line will get all the passengers which
the coaches got. As the coaches don't pay
expenses on Sundays. the colonel will make
money by not running them on those days.
Col. Shepard may be both pious man
and crank, but doubtless his piety would
be more appreciated if he were less a crank.
and if he were more of crank there would
be less doubt about the genuineness of his

Senator Blackburn and the Doctors

Washington Dispatch to Cincinnati Enquirer
MT Blackburn said in his opinion there is
nothing in the world the matter with Senator
Beck Every vital organ in his body is as
healthy and sound as it ever was He is to-day
better man physically than am and there Is
nothing the matter with me except a bad cold,
and Beck hasn't even got a cold. The trouble
with him was that he was overcome by a strain
that he had kept up for long time, which any
man with less sturdy constitution than his
would have succumbed to long ago. He needed
rest, and he has had it, but the doctor that he
has bad has scared him into believing that he is
a very SICK man and must abandon his lagiSla-
tive duties and other business and take q trip
south. Well, the trip will not do him any harm,
and as he is getting 9ong in life: will doubtless

Advertising for 1880.

TIE MORNING NEWS is prepared to re-
new expiring yearly advertising contracts
or make new contracts at its usual low
rates for that class of business. Under this
system advertisers can secure a certain
amount of space in the paper, with the
privilege of changing the matter. from time
to time, as may be agreed upon, at reducued
rates. They can thus keep their business
before the world at all seasons at nominal
average expense. Newspapers can afford
to make liberal concessions to contract adj
vertisers because of the regular and in
creased business secured thereby.
A few hundred dollars expended yearly
in advertising will make an out-of-the-way
store good stand for business, and give
the advertiser name among the energetic
and enterprising business men of the city
and put money in his pocket. The success
full men of to-day are those who invest as
much money in printers ink as they do in
store rents
The MORNING NEWS circulates every
where in the city, and the country where Sa-
vannah's business men expect to find buyers
for whatever they have to sell. 1t is read
by rich and poor alike, has thousands of
readers who never look at any other paper,
and will give better results for money paid
to it for advertising than any other invest
ment business man can make.

contracts, it will also be glad to make con-

Raise the Curtain.

Flora ". Cdndee in Netc York Tribune
Raise the curtain-let the brightness
OF your cheerful light shine FORTH
To the passers in the darkness
1t may be of vital worth;
Give glimpse to lonely wanderers
OF your household full of joy,
1t may rouse to new ambition
Some poor friendless, tempted boy.
Raise the curtain-we are kindred
Each TO all is bound by ties
Which forbid selfish shutting
OF ourselves from others eyes;
Share your light and share your blessings,
God hath made the whole world kin
And bis love SO universal
Takes the weakest sinner In.
Raise the curtain of your window,
Raise the curtain of your mind;
Do not let possession make you
To the wants of others blind
Helping others we are strengthened,
Giving we are richer made;
And no one so strong or patient,
But some time.hath need of aid.

Congressman Bynum has been talking
for publication. He said that if the repub-
lican majority of the next House turned
out to be less than five, an extra session
would be called by Gen. Harrison, so that
the majority might be increased by seating
republican contestants. With regard TO
the admission of new states, he said the
Springer bill would pass the House at this
session, but would be defeated in the SEN
ate, and that at the next session republi-
can congress would admit those territories
which show republican majorities. Mr.
Bynum probably was right in all that he
said. The republicans will run things in
the interest Of the Republican party, and
the people may go to Jericho, or some place
equally as undesirable.

The White Caps.

Gov. Foraker has not suppressed the
White Caps in Ohio. notwithstanding his
boast that he had done so; and there are
governors of other northern states who
are now called upon to deal with these
mask law-breakers. The White Caps have
made their appearance even in the law
abiding state of New York.
Now is the time for the northern press to
make its influence felt against lawlessness.
1t is always on the lookout for lawless acts
and lawless organizations in the southern
states. 1t has not ceased even yet to refer
to the ku-klux khan, and some of the repub-
lican journals are spending their force in
fighting that dead and gone organization
instead CT directing all their efforts toward
the suppression of the White Caps.
The White Caps say that there is an ex-
cuse for their existence. They declare that
murderers go unhung, and that lesser
crimes aud all sorts of immoralities are not
punished. If what they say is true, there
must be a pretty bad state of affairs in
some of the northern states. Society there
is in need of some radical reforms, and the
temples of justice need overhauling. While
ehO AOpuCAASoh HCNopokOio oAO OhcNoAhS
these reforms. and purifying the courts, the
south will probably have little rest from
their attacks. The truth probably is that
they have boon neglecting home affairs
They have been so much interested in
affairs in this section of the country that
they have wholly overlooked glaring evils
in their own.
If the White Caps are not quickly sup
pressed they will give the people a great
deal of trouble However good their inten-
lions may have been in the outset, it is
quite evident now that they have had bad
advisers. Some of the outrages committed
by them lately we're horrible. If they are
not promptly checked with a strong hand
they will go to much greater lengths in the
commission of their lawless deeds.
There was some reason for the existence
of the ku-klux khan. though no justifica-
ton nor excuse for much they did. Is there
also reason for the existence of the White
Capss If there is, the good people of the
north should begin the work of publication
and reform at once.

The Duty on Oranges.

The republicans expect that their tariff
bill will be passed by the Senate very soon
after the holidays. There is no probability,
however, that it will be passed by the
House. 1t is almost wholly in the interest
of monopolists and the north. Southern
agricultural products are dealt with in it
as if the south had no right to expect to be
placed upon an equal footing with the
north in framing the revenue laws.
| During the discussion of the tariff bill
Immediately before the holiday recess,
Senator Call, of Florida, proposed an
amendment to it that provided for such an
| increase in the duties ON oranges, lemons
and other citrus fruits as would afford the
producers of these fruits some protection
1t met with no favor wha tever. The
present duty on oranges is 20 cents box
Senator Call wanted it raised to 20 cents
| Oranges are nov. brought to this country in
great quantities, and are sold much cheaper
than Florida oranges can be sold profitably.
" the makers of steel rails, for instance,
vare being undersold in their own market
the foreign makers of rails, the republi-
, IN Senate would quickly increase the duty
on them to the protective point. Why is it
that they are not willing to afford the
orange and lemon growers protection9 The
only reason, apparently, is that oranges are
grown in the south, and the republican sem
ators are not disposed to aid the south in
any way.
The growers of oranges and lemons in
Florida have to pay high prices for about
everything they need in producing their
crops, because of the high pr elective tariff
on such things. If the tariff on the things
they sell gave them as much protection as
the tariff on the things they buy gives to
those who produce them they would not
grumble They complain because there is
practically free trade in their products,
while the articles they need are protected.
They ask, with a good show of reason,
why it is that the manufacturer of stesl
rails, or Of agricultural implements, has the
home market reserved for him, while almost
free access is permitted to their home mar
ket.
The republicans are always talking about
the sectional spirit of the south, but if sec
tional legislation is any indication of Sec
tional feeling, the north far exceeds the
south in this respect. There could hardly
be greater instance of sectional legislation
than the Senate tariff bill presents.
