HAVE RIGHT TO PICKET.
Union Men Must Not 1Eolsst Work
 men. However.

Cincinnati. Dec. sl.--Judge Rufus E. Smith of the Superior Court handed down an important decision today. i'm which he comedies to striking workmen the right to picket a factory when they are seeking to accomplish a lawful pnr- pose. and do not in any way intimidnta or coerce non-strikers. At the same tirne Judge Smith defines the rights of employ CTS. and says that when it Is necessary In their business to employ workmen. the right to do this is q property right. and when interfered with unlawfully the rem edy is by injunction.
 The decision was written by Judge Smith in the suit of the Eureka Foundry Company against the striking core-mak- CTS, and by it's terms the strikers are perpetually enJoined from picketing the Eureka Foundry in large numbers. The strikers are allowed to have one picket at the factory who may peacefully per- suade worimen to leave their employment and may advance arguments to work men If they choose to hear such. If the worlrmen do not care to meet the picket or listen to his arguments, they are not to be n1olested. and any attempt to in- fiuence their minds by improper mctionn will be a transgression of the rights cf the employer, and may be corrected bg injunction.

of our total exports. The inflow of gold Is not without it's hazards. They must be avoided. The American peopls are sane enough to make gold not only tho symbol of prosperity. but It's stout ae- fense.
 The address of Director of the Mint Roberts was devoted largely to the matt ter of bank note iasues. He said In partg
 '-The objector to note Issues without special security wants first of all t0 divest himself of the idea that nose TO- demption depends solely or primarily upon the gold reserve in the banks. The proposition to issue notes on bank as- sets, he said. was part of development of the clearing house idea, Continuing he said: saa e
 'so long as a bank confines it's note Issues to the services of its regular daily legitimate trade there would be no im- portant balances against 1t at the clear- ing house, because the legitimate trade of the country offsets itself. But aa soon as bank begins to greedily push its circulation by unusual methods cr unusual credits adverse balances at the clearing house would begin to appear and it's gold reserve dwindle. So long ap a bank does only the business that a bank ought to do, redemption would be no proe~ lem at all, but the moment 1t departed from that policy 1t would have to Hufer and settle at every misstep."

RECORD OF FAILURES.
The South Not as Fortunate as Other
 Sections.

SecG10nS.
 New York, Dec. 91.-In spite of some crop shortages, added to record-breaking strikes and reduced foreign trade. Brad streets January 3, will report that the failure record for the past year ie, on the whole a favorable one. In only one section, the South, was there an increase of financial casualties over the record of 1901. and in only two. the South and Gen. trai West, was there an increase of ha- bilities.
 During the year there were reported sSn commercial failures, with liabilities of SEC, ,603. .e23, and assets of $5O,S70,SOO, a deere ease in number of GA per cent and falling off of liabilities of IS per cent from 1901. Compared with 1900 and 1S99 increases in the number of failures of 5.6 per cent and 70 per cent as shown, but comparisons with prior years are mark edIy in favor of 1902. In liabilities, an even better showing is made. those for 1902 being the smallest reported for twen- ty years While the proportion of assets to liabilities was AS per cent in 1902, as against 4S0 in 1901 and E7.2 in 1900, 1t is lower than in any preceding year since 1885.
 With two exceptions, the number Of concerns in business is growing steadily, the increase since 1892 aggregating 19 per cent. The annual death rate" Is shown to be only 0.s0 in 1902. against O.SS in 1901. and o.s5 hitherto the lowest records made, in 1900 and 1899.

PURPOSE OF MORGAN WILL FORGE HAND OF THE
 MAJORITY. Alabama Senator Will Push Resolu- ton Calling on President to Be- gin the Construction o2
 Nicaragua Canal.

Washington. Dec. 31.-(Special. )--sena- tor Morgan seems fixed to his praise worthy purpose to press immediately af- ter the holidays resolution demanding of the President that he proceed with the Nicaraguan canal project seeing that con- ditions disable hi mfrom further pur- suing the Panama plan.
 The best that may come of the Sena- tors purpose may be to force the hand of the majority of the Senate, which so far has been dominated by the money power as represented by the trans-continentaI railroads, but even that will serve a good purpose. in that it will show still more clearly to the American people that the Money Power is determined that in our time thsre shall be no isthnian canal.
 Having this fat in view. Senator Nor gan's purpose to push the issue is the most interesting question of discussion connected with the reassembling of Con- gress.
 In any event the Alabama Senator will do the greatest public service oS his long and illustrious career. He will force the Money Power majority of the Senate to come forward more boldly than hereto fore in showing their allegiance. No doubt is felt here of the result of the Nor E4A AASfUAAAGhts AS WAA ACeaNS SAAS 4SDh0 where 1t ia now-there will be no canal in our tima.
 The President will deny himself the greatest glory possible to him-the con- struction of canal uniting the Atlantic and Pacific.
 It seems the Money Power will remain supreme. even over Theodore Roosevelt. But Senator Morgan will do the part of q patriot statesman.
 1t is of doubtful interest to know Con- Rressmnn Richardson of Tennessee, to- day gives out the opinion that the next Democratic National Convention will con- oeru itself with Judge Parker of New York, Mir. olney and Mir. German. MT. Richardson is the man who Is supposed to lead the minority in the House of Rep resentatives.
 Meantime, the preliminary adjustment of The Venezuelan trouble. together with continued national prosperity, makes this a glad new year for the American people.
