' Portland, Dec, 21.--To the Editor of j ino journal: ah ine new year ap- i proaches, we, clairvoyants of the first , order, have an oversupsly of prophe cies and must unload, f The following comes to me In a trance from my fa- ; vorlte spirit, Hons von Bunglesplegel: ! Colonel Fred Holman will soon be re warded by , his industry and be able to fix the boundary line between the twilight sone and the hyperspace in progressive movement. Judce Webster will purchase an auto mobile and run into vDan Kellaher's fish window. . Dan j Maiarkey will be threatened with diaponesls, .but will throw It off. . That student of carclnology, Hon. John F. Carrots, will bring fame to his name by introducing a new treat ment for crabs, shrimp, lobsters, etc., in our present political system. H. D. - Wagnon will shortly hear cheer ful news; a local plutocrat will be choked to-death by a chicken bone in his throat. By patience and perseverace our city government will yet be able to answer, "When is a commissioner not a pe titioner." y' ' The Honohn F.' Logan will con tinue to mellow. Another visit to Ire land will make him a saint. John Manning will incorporate In his platform 40 acres and a mule and Col onel Bob Miller will meet it by a state millinery department to supply the ladles with the latest styles free gratis, but Mr. U'Ren has something up his sleeve. Colonel Edgar B. Flutist will Invest in a haircut, March 16th, between 4 and 6 p. m. . Dr. Andrew C. Smith will be a Nobel prize candidate by reason of a wonder ful discovery called the "Ulster germ." P. H. D'Arcy will conclude he would not be Irish if he did not get into the fight. The next senator from Oregon will be he who can clearly elucidate a syl labus of the symbiosis in the consort Ism of the candidates. His excellency, our present governor, will demonstrate beyond a reasonable doubt the Inerrancy of the doctrine of predestination. On or before January 1st Judge Pipes will purchase a new pipe or move his offices. There will be no rape of the recall. The coming spring will witness a re ctum to sanity; sanity and prosperity being synonymous terms. Bob Stevens' platform will be an eugenic baby. Mexico is about to come to Wilson.
