Municipal Reforms.

The movement organized few weeks ago
to reform the public morals Of San Fran
cisco has already developed colossal in
fluence aad power. The crusade moves like
q great wheel. propelled by the strong arm
of public indignation, and the rushing OF
the bones in the corrupt body OF vice CRATES
upon the ear. Thus the life has been
crushed out of the most infamous place of
iniquity paTaded in the guise of public
amusement, that has ever disgraeed the city
and civilization. These men should be
hunted out Of town like thieves. They are
thieves, because they endeaYOT to steal the
virtue of our people. They are the lowest,
most vulgar and TepuisiYe OF creatures; they
assaSsinate all that's beautiful ana glorious

virtue Of our daughters. The diye-keepers

virtue with hOneyed words into dark corners
and slay her, and then laugh eXuitingly over

closed so tight that the wind can't get in,
the crusaders should give kearny street

the latest campaign literature.
Although California was one of the last
States to enter the league it has already

has been made one of the members OF the
subcommittee of the executive committee.
among whom are such men as James ).
Clarkson, James A. Blanchard of New

energies in making the California league
one Of the best in the organization.

work, that power being left to him by the
convention. He is now engaged in consid-
eTing a number Of names and viii exercise
great care in the selection of his men, so
that no one party can claim that ii controls
the league.
The league is designed to promote the
principles of the Republican party, es-
pecially in the national contest, and local
politics will not be allowed to interfere with
this work.

Mr.. Quinn will not be liable to receive this

much discussed among the clubs yesterday.
A result of the discussion was a discovery
