The Blue and Gray Central Legion
at Union Hall.
II. RyIand. of San Jose, Replies
TO Secretary Thompson

From the San Francisco Morning CALL
Union Hall was crowded to overflow
ing last evening, on the occasion OF the
fourth grand mass meeting of the Han
cock Central Blue and Gray Legion.
General w. S. Rosecranzs presided,
opening the meeting with the following
remarks: I'm calling together this vast
assemblage l have bu. a few remarks to
offer. You all read the newspapers,
and are therefore prepared. 1t appears
that the distinguished secretary Of the
interior did not create such q great d.
version IN favor of the republican party.
Nor yet did that great orator OF the
party, Mr.. Secretary Thompson, entirely
destroy the democracy on this coast.
rave the honor of introducing the Hon.
C. L. Ryland, OF San Jose, who will ad.
dress you"
Mr.. Ryland was greeted with a round
of applause. He said: / feel it an
honor to obey the call of so distinguish
ed a citizen as General w. S. Rosecrazs
l shall indulge in no abuse. for l an
aware that abuse Is not argument. ]
shall endeavor to convince my demo.
cratic friends that that distinguished
patriot and soldier.

And that honorable man, w. H. English
should be president and vice president.
One ot the chosen of the nation, Mr..

cumstances of the matter. He knew
that a severe cross-examinatiOn wouid
bring out the truth. He was in a terri
BILE state of mind. In this dilemma he
went TO Blaine, who was then speaker
OF the house and possessed unbounded
influence with his party associates. L
nave been told by different persons, who
knew the facts, that Garfield, with tears
in his eyes. begged Blaine to save him
from the exposure which bung over his
head. Blaine, out of the goodness of
his heart, consented, and a candidate
for the presidency was saved to the re-
publican party"
Considerable surprise has been ex-
pressed at the conduct OF Senator Conk-
ling toward the republican candidate
for president. Democratic newspapers
have carolled gleefully over the fact
that he did not participate in the late
conference OF republican leaders at the
Fifth Avenue Hotel. He avoided the
conference tor two reasons: One that
he did not wish to be mlsjudged by the
public; the other his intense personal
aversion to Garfield. -g
His private comments upon the re-
| publican nomination have been most
severe. He has in the most sarcastic
manner expressed his regret at the
paucity of honest men in the republican
party which made the nomination of
Garfield necessary. He has expressed
his sympathy with the republican press
of the country, which, on the day after
the nomination was made, compelled
them to defend a man accused OF grave
crimes. He has described the torments
of good republicans. suffering the night
mare in their sleep for fear lest, when
they awaken, some new charge of dis
honesty or fraud should appear against
their candidate in the morning newspa-
pers. Yet Mr.. Conkling will do what
he can to secure the election of Garfield
and Arthur in New York state in No
vember. 1t is not the men-at least not
Garfeld-but the alleged principle that
he is fighting for. He is mindful OF the
$500 postmasters and minor federal
officers whs helped to elect him to the
senate. These oficeholders would
loose their places it the republican can-
didate should be defeated. 1t is Mr..
Conkling's duty to do all for them he
can do

THE SWINE AND IT'S MISSION.

EDITOR 1NTELLIGENCER God has so
created the world that every creature,
whether on land or in the water, has its
lot of duties to perform. No difference
hsw minute and Insignificant it may
seem to the human being; ne matter
how hard it may be for US TO compre-
bend tho intention of an omnipotent
Creator, yet withal it is so now it has
been so from the creation of the world,
and we may safely prognosticate that it
will always remain so until the earth is
no more. The swine or hog. or call it
scroiula, If you please, has its mission !;
it is intended by nature as a scavenger;
as a cleanser and destroyer of carrion
and filth, it has no equal, and there the
mission fer what it Is intended ceases, for
whatever God has made, he has made
right. Now what de you think when
some of u city fathers, and even our
mayer, r in favor of a law restricting
hogs from running about the cityP Into
the hands of these men we have entrust-
ed the welfare Of u city to say the
least Of them, no matter how intelligent
they may be upon other subjects, they
are either personally interested in such
q law, or they are as i'll informed OF the
laws of lite and health as a man who
makes %pretensions as ar engineer, but
who does net know the difference be-
tween q concave and q convex. AT al
most any time you may find in the hol-
lows and bitches of u city the carcass
es of rats, cats. dogs, hogs. cows or
horses; eur streets and alleys exhibit
filth and decaying flesh, fish, fruit and
vegetable matter; what would the state
OF health be without hogs? 1t would be
just as impossible to keep sickness from
among Us as it would be to force the
vine Of a bean to left and of a hop to the
right OF a pole. There is nothing said
in the council about our cows. which
commit %nuisances every night on GU
streets, alleys and pavements, and whose
POISONOUS stagnant water-milk we drink
without asking ourselves is this milk fl
food for our babes and ourselves? Oul
school and seminary girls will not suffel
the least by our hogs running at larg,
in and about the city there is no danger
OF them soiling their dresses, for the.
wear what every woman in the lane
should wear, a dress OF proper length
II ever the hog case should come VI
again in the city hall, please remembel

"Julia writes us long letter ask
ing how she can keep her husband home
nights. She says she has done every
thing she can think of to please him,
but he will insist on leaving her alone
each evening. We fear Julia doesn't
make her husbands home pleasant for
him, or he would certainly not go away.
Now, Julia, you go down town to-day
and buy keg of beer, placing it in one
corner of the dining-room. Strew saw
dust over the floor, and put half dozen
coarse, wooden boxes about the room
for spittoons. Hang sheet across
one end OF, the room, invite half a
dozen of your husbands male friends to
spend the evening. Then, Julia, you
and your servant dress yourselves up in
long stockings and night-dresses, and,
when your friends have assembled with
their cigars, pull aside the sheet you
have previously hung up, and skip from
one side of the room to the other, on the
tips of your toes, singing, "Tra-la-la-lel"
and jumping as high as you can at every
third step. This will prove very inter-
esting exercise for yourself and servant,
and prevent your husband from straying
away. Ii your husbands male friends
are married, invite their wives to assist
you in the evenings entertainment. Ii
this doesn't keep him at home evenings,
you'd better trade him off for yellow
dog, and keep the dog chained up
