LONDON, Mar. 16. The govern

"England's supremacy," Balfour
said, "Is threatened as a result of
the government's niggardly policy.
The situation is very grave. If the
present plans are carried out Eng
land's naval strength by 1913 will
be only equal to that of tne conj
oined fleets of the powers in the
triple alliance."
Arthur Lee said that Englund

Replying to Colonel Roosevelt's crlt

former Governor C. N. Haskell said
today: .
"Roosevelt Is one of the few men
combining all the qualities of the

single provision In the Oklahoma
constitution that bribegivers or spe
cial Interests would pay a quarter
for. In Roosevelts seven years as

official act which bribegivers would
have prevented. Roosevelt is a dead
one. Why waste time on him?"
