WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN BELGIUM.
Remarkable Campaign Recently Car
ried on Throughout Kingdom.

Special Cablesram to The Star.
BRUSSELS. July 13.-A remarkable cam
paisn in favor of woman's suffrage has just
been carried on throughout Belgium. The
movement has really been carried on under
the auspices Of the socialist party. but
strangely enough the Catholics have ap-
proved of it, while the liberals have been
fighting It,. The socialists support the
movement they say. because Of their time
honored ideas regarding equality; the Cath
olics approve it because of the large per-
centage of Catholic women in Belgium
which would afford the clericals important
political support. while the liberals oppose
it because Of the advantages that 1t would
give the Catholics whole.
The campaign has been carried on with
great deal Of noise and buster. but the
closest students Of political events in Bel
GUM predict that few permanent results
will be secured for the country as result
of the campaign.
