ENGLAND'S SUPREMACY.

For several centuries England has arro- gated to herself the right to carry the broom at the masthead and declare herself 'Mis- tress of the Seas, but at last her claims are disputed and in most practical manner.
 The Hon. Winston Churchill, former Chief Lord of the British Admiralty, has ish press of the United States with his claims of British maritime supremacy In an exhaustive article recently from his pen and the ex-Lord's pen appears to be mightier than his word-he tries to convince the American people that the battle of the North Sea between the British and German fleets was decided English victory.
 If the destruction of twice the tonnage in the engagement and the loss of twice the number of lives of the combatants has fallen on the British as their Admirals admit-the ordinary individual can judge to whom the victory belongs
 In every encounter of the English and German at sea, from the performance of the little Emden, down to the recent marvellous spectacle of Teutonic submarine entering a United States port delivering her valuable cargo and returning to her home port with an equally valuable cargo of war material, unmolested, and the more recent adventure of the U-53 on a more aggressive mission can be taken as sample of British suprema- cy on the ocean, they are welcome to that opinion of their own prowess, but the man from Missouri or the doubting Thomas of America, must be shown more tangible proofs than any MT. Churchill has adduced.
 The little Emderi not only bade defiance to the British Asiatic squadron by virtually clearing English and allied merchantmen from their Indian ocean and South Atlantic, to be eventually destroyed by the more pow erftrl armament of an Australian man of war mot very creditable achievement to British prowess, to say the least.
 Where the contending fleets were any, thing near an equal footing i'll men and equipment, as in the battle off the coast of Chile, where Admiral Craddock went dowh with his fleet, the Germans have certainly had the best of the encounters.
 The battle off the Faukland Islands ! was one sided affair from start to finish, the British being three times superior in tonnagesee men and guns yet the brave Admiral Satur7 dee has admitted that Won Spec fought his ships with great ability and gave England the battle ot her lite up to that date.
 This claim of England to be mistress of the seas is being slowly but surely removed from the minds of the most partial observers < when they consider that with all her naval power and her patrol of all coasts, ,beligerant and neutral, her arch-enemy, Germany, carlN fly above her and dive beneath her; deliver merchandise to neutral customers and return to their home ports with sinews of war, play battledore and shuttlecock with the Allies merchantmen, deliver diplomatic messages in face of blockade, precludes the possibility of her claim to be "Mistress of the Seas" it simply tends to prove that England can hardly be designated mistress of a mud-pud- dle.
