The Outlook of the Farmers Alliance.
As preparations for next years great po-
litical campaign become more numerous,
the question becomes more pertinent as to
what part the Farmers Alliance will play
in it, or whether it will play a separate part
at all. A question that has already arisen,
too, in the minds of goo many observers
of public events, is whether or not the Al
lance is on the decline, AMI is likely soon
to disintegrate. Senator John T. Morgan
of Alabama-who has always been friend
ly to the Alliance, though he has taken
sharp political issue with its financial plat
form-contrbutes an article to the Noyem-
Der Forum, i'm which he undertakes to
throw light on these inquiries. He main
tains that the farmers have a real grev-
ance; he heartily approves their organiza-
ton; he had great hopes that IL would at
first accomplish much good; and he thinks,
that, if the Alliance would remain true to
its original purpose, it would be a beneh-
cent organization. But he points out the
rise Of most destructive tendencies and of
narrow ideas since politicians have got hold
of it, and he sees the great danger that
they will wreck the whole organization
Senator Morgan points ont the clear con-
sttutionality of the financial demands of
the leaders of the Alliance. AM makes a
plea for the conservative men of the organ
ization to save it from its leaders.

American ships and Our Foreign Carr
Tying Trade.

The absence of the American flag in for
eign ports has long been matter of COM
ment. Any discussion of the causes of
and the remedies for this humiliating state
of things, must attract wide attention. Mr..
Charles II. Cramp, the president of the
great Philadelphia company that is build
ing so many of our warships treats the
matter in the November Forum, and after
an historical review of the subject, comes
to the conclusion that the different atti-
tudes of the British government and our
own toward shipbuilders is largely respon-
sible for the state of our merchant marine.
This country, he thinks, will never have a
fleet of merchant vessels so long as the
United States government pursues its pres
ent policy. These are some of the points
from his article:

How President Harrison Writes His
Message.

Washington despatch to the New York Mail and
Express.
President Harrison is busily engaged in
writing his message to Congress, and eX-
poets to have about all of the hardest work
done within a couple of weeks. He writes
out his ideas the moment they enter his
mind. He keeps scratch paper in small
tablets on his desk and on the tables about
the White House, and whenever ideas
strike him he pulls out a pencil and writes
them out in full. These rough drafts he
sticks on a copy hook on his working desk
and thus his message accumulates para
graph by paragraph, subject by subject.
When the time draws near for the final
preparation of the message he takes his
great pile of pages from their hook CLASH
ties them, YIELDS them together in connect
ed form, and passes them over to his type
writer. The copy that is returned to him
is revised, and then another copy is made
for the printer, In this manner the mes
sage is framed by easy stages, as it were,
and the President does not feel the burden
of its composition. He does not wait I'M
til Congress is almost at hand and then
sit down to the task of composing a docu-
ment that generally consists of from 1000
to 10000 words.
