| PROPHECY.
Prediction Made That Bryan Will Be
Elected.
| In spite of the bluster made about this
and that state going for Mckinley, and
his carrying the country by storm, it is
now a settled conviction with most .peo-
| pie that Bryan will be our next presi-
/ dent There is in this year of 1896 the
same kind of sentiment abroad in the
| land as there was in 1860, when the peo-
Pile rose in their might and elected Abra-
! ham Lincoln. All signs point that way;
| it will, therefore not be surprising to
| learn that those versed in the mysteries
of astrology discover IN the planetary
| system the same signs that abound
nearer at hand.
| The following horoscope is submitted
to the readers Of the Penny Press by an
astrologer who stands second to none in
| proficiency, and who has in times past
won plaudits for his correct prognosti-
cations. He says;
| AS l have been repeatedly asked by
many, what do the stars show in regard
| to who will be our next president? in
| close the horoscope which read from a
scientific standpoint. and challenge any
astrologer of reputation to show any
point wherein I have not given correct
| Judgment. according to rules generally
| used in reading horary questions, re-
gardless OF whether the result of the
election is beneficial or detrimental to
the capitalist or laboring man. L Will
state, first, that Mr.. Mckinley was the
first candidate nominated for president,
consequently we must, from a scientific
and astrological standpoint, use the
time he was nominated, that is, the time
when his nomination was announced by;
the chairman, as this IS the exact minute
when he became thescandidate of the Re-
publican party The horoscope will then
show all the indications of his election
or defeat; also those of his adversaries.
We have no astrological right to look at
any. other horoscope, consequently, the
time at which Mr.. Bryan was non;-
mated cuts no figure, as the Mckinley
horoscope must necessarily show the
outcome, either of success or defeat
This is as true Of the time he was nomi-
mated, as when Bryan was nominated
The official time of McKinleys nomi-
nation is June 18, 5:44 p m. I find the
sign Sagittarius descending, therefore
Sagittar-us represents the Republican
represents Mckinley Gemini, the sign
opposite Sagittarius, represents the ad-
versaries of the Republican party, or the
"Popocrats," as some are pleased to call
them. Mercury, which rules Gemini,
represents Mr.. Bryan. The conditions
we find are: First, Jupiter, Or Mckinley,
is severely afflicted by Saturn, in square
aspect. A very evil testimony. Jupiter
is in the eighth house, one Of the least
important of the figure. One astrologer.
! remarks that the eighth house, being
the house of legacies, ETC., indicates that
Mckinley would inherit the presidency
l. myself, do not see why he should not
de, politically, as the eighth is the
eighth is the house of death also.
| Next we find Saturn and Uranus in the
twelfth house, or house Of secret enemies
to the Republican party. This shows,
as has been demonstrated so far, that
many Chose who have been driven
against their Wild who talk for gold will
surely vote against it, and just before
election many supporters will turn a
complete backward somersault and land
in the opposing ranks.
Mars, which rules the Scorpio, the
house of secret enemies and friends, par
TALLY, is in his dignity in Aries. and,
therefore, sheds his bright rays ON Nc
Kinley's adversaries. Mercury, which
represents Mr.. Bryan, is at home, digni-
fed and glorious, in conjunction with
11yho ho Fojp
chuckles at the luck he is having. Nep-
tunes influence is not we'll known, but
have found it to be evil 1t is more
evil in the seventh house, which is Nc
Kinley's, than in the first house of Mr.
Bryan's figure; another good testimony
for Mr.. Bryan. The moon. which al
ways represents the people, is in Libra,
and is applying to a sextite of Jupiter
This is practically the only good indiea-
tion in the layout for Mckinley, as it
shows that he will have (as he always
has had) all the .flthy lucre'' to help
push him along. But here, again, we
ind a9complication, for the moon is af-
h:cted by seni-square of Uranus, which
affects Jupiter's good effect.
Next. we notice Capricorn is the house
of money of the Republican party Sat-
urn rules this house and is signifcator
of his royal highness, Marcus Aurilius.
Saturn is badly afflicted by Jupiter,
which is in its greatest debility in Capri
corn. This is an indication that Mr.
Hanna will be financially embarrassed
Ii. is. also an Indication that the Repub-
lican party will, as a whole. go broke.
+ There are many other good points
shown for AfcKin1ey's adversar.es,, but
none for himself. Therefore, my judg-
ment Of the. figure is that the boy orator
of the Platte" will slide into the presi-
dent IS chair on March a. 1897. s5s @
