The only crime those men were apparently guilty of was that they were Deirccrats, relatives of Democratic loaders, or friends of men who were identified with Willoughby street. Some of these Democratic ex employes of the City of Brooklyn have gone 'through a fierce struggle ever since, and a few of them gradually became total wrecks, both morally and physically by continuous worry; ethers died broken hearted and in utter destitution.

Since the first day of January of this year, 'their chief persecutors have left the City Ha'll, but seme of those who were only too eager to assist in the ruination of those men, have still been able to retain their places, by posing as true Democrats lately, while they were doing their utmost to insure the election of Wurster in 1SU5 and again were working with their heart and soul foT the success of Mr. Low. Now let me compare these men with those they have driven out of office during the last few years. The latter were true and honest, performed their duties and knew their business.

There's a divinity that shapes our ends, Kouph them how we will. When the United States demanded of Spain that tho cruelties of cen'turies must cease and chat freedom should be given to the Cubans there was no thought that our army and navy would hold possession of tt La drones and the Philippines, or that if two brief engagements ilio naval power of tin would be swept from I'je sea. Yet things havethappened. iN'o man living would have had the temerity to prorVaesy such a result of our interference on behalf of an oppressed and cruelly wronged people. Spain has had it in her power ever since 'that never to be forgc 'ten May 1 to securo 'terms of peace with the United States, but, wrapped up in the traditions of the past, when she was a't the fcenl'th ot her power and glory, she refused to lis'ten 'to the voice ot wisdom even as she refuses to listen to day, with her second fleet strewing 'the rock bound shores ot Cuba.

It ia evident that her day of punishment has coine and 'that t'he United States is the instrument to administer that punishment. "There's a divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them how we will," is evi true, and no man can tell what the future destiny of the lifted States will be. Carll iL imperialism, or what one will.

Brooklyn Eagle. The Eagle is a truly American bird, tt is neither alarmed nor deceived by ihe outeries regarding "Imperialism," "colonial extension" or any other phrases recently coined by the timorous and the doubtful, ft screams in company with pin a dis ingulslied and able Democrat as Hon. ticha. Olney than with Grcv 'and an! William J. Bryan.

In fact the Eatrli sees the nonsensical side of the argument vu: forth against "imperialism." because there is no "Imperialism" a' bcu: it, except the iinpertil iRin of humanity, liberty, progress ami eivilizaticn.
