A DirefuI but Explicit Prophecy from
Michigan

Correspondence New York Sun
In 1880 the National Greenbackers will poll
more votes than any other party, but will be
cheated out OF their officers In 1888 there will
be great change in the Government of the
United States probably the disfranchisement
OF part OF the people About 1885 there will
be civil war. One third of all the property in
this country and thousands Of lives will be
lost. Anarchy will rule three (3) years. In
1893 the West and South will separate from
the Eastern States and become an ndepen-
dent nation. California and all west of the
submits OF the Rocky Mountains will remain
with the Eastern States one (11 year and eight
~ months afterward. Then it will become an
independent nation. In 1897 the Pope Of Rome
viii visit this country. Catholicism will then
have power over all the States east OF the
Rocky Mountains, and continue In power
three hundred 800 years. In 1907 Canada
will be free, and four a. years afterward will
unite with the Eastern and Western States
except small State In the extreme east OF
Canada In 1854 Central Canada. New York.
Vermont. New Hampshire. and Maine will be
united under one government. Now look for
ward 300 years and a dark pail has fallen
over our nation, and the people are fast going
back into barbarism. T.. NJ. BULLARD.
