CoRELLI ON BALFoUR's SIDE.
Antisuffrase Woman Novelist Says So
eialists Are Maie Suffraqettes.

London, Dec. 16.-Marie Corelli's ir-
reconcilable antagonism to woman suf-
frage does not prevent her from aim
ing to obtain political influence. She
has written an address to the electors
saying that the very life of England IN
now In the balance.
The empire, she says, is standing
like a victim on the rock Of suspense,
waiting to be hurled into the devour-
ing waters of socialism or rescued and
led back to the security Of home with
peace and honor. A Socialist she de-
scribes as a sort Of male suffragette
seeking to upset the laws Of nature in
order that he may assert himself AZ
superior to nature.
Disloyalty to the throne and consti-
tuition has seized a great part Of the
people, she says. Miss Corelli appeals
to voters to think and to be true to
God, king and country.
