CRUSHING A NATION.
The canbray League and the Fail Of
the Venstian Republic.

The cambray League and the Fall Of
the Venetian Republic.
The League OF Cambray was the po-
litical combination Of continental Eu-
rope in 1908 against the Venetian re-
public. which tore from the Queen of
the Adriatic" her resplendent crown
and forced to her lips the cup Of deep
est humiliation.
Back Of the league and causing its
formation were jealousy, ambition and
the desire Of Gripping the proud peo-
pie. whose history was the wonder and
envy of the world. Too powerful to be
overthrown by any single power, 1t
was resolved that Venice should be
crushed by the combined forces OF all
Europe.
During the terrible days Of Attila,
about A. D. 453. Venice waS founded
out among the lagoons Of the Adriatic,
where. it was felt. safety would be
found from the ravages of the Hun.
The history OF the thousand years from
the foundation OF the city to the year
1903 reads like magic. Rising from the
waves. Venice became the wonder of
the world. Her navy cut the waters
Of every known sea. Her merchants
were the greatest on earth. Her bank
was the financial center Of the world.
Her palaces. which seemed TO be foat-
ing upon the blue waters Of the Adri-
attic. were the envy OF the kings and
queens of the continent Wealth, fash
ion, splendor-their abode was Venice.
And so for more than ten centuries
did Venice remain the glory OF the
world, the center Of wealth, opulence
and power. the home OF culture and
intelligence. the hearthstone about
which sat the finest of the intellectual
graces and hospitalities. and such she
might have remained but for the
League OF Cambray. which. with its
overwhelming forces. gave her the
blow lat Agnadello IN 1909 from
which it was impossible for her to
recover.
