Nnw Youk, July in. I met n young
tnnn from mid-Indiana thin morning who
was "looking for n job" In New York. Ho
has teen lure for several days now, hm
tramped over miles of streets and liai
mado nt least half a hundred applica
tions for employment. In every case
tho result has been the fame. Thero
seems to be nothing at all for him to do.
He told tno about his experience In detail
before he left mo, mid when ho had finish
ed I gave him some advice. I told him
to take tho first train for the west and
remain tiu'toiuid grow up with thocouu-
ACsriN conniN.
try. I was surprised at his reply, for he
had seemed somewhat dejected during
our Interview and had admitted that his
money was about gone. But ho flatly
refused to take my advice or to admit its
soundness.
"Have yon read the morning papers
today'" be asked mo. ,1 nodded. "Well,"
he went on. "if yon read them as I did
you noticed that most of the New York
era who got into print today were born
somewhere cUe. A lot of them were
country boys, and they are successful
Mew workers now because they came
here and staid hero till they made places
for themselves. You may give me all
the advice you want to, but I shall stuy
in New York. If my money gives out
before I get located. I shall go back and
earn enough money to mako another at
tempt, but 1 shall not give up."
I examined the papers after the boy
had gone out. and I found that he wai
right. More New Yorkers who were not
born here were mentioned than natives
by a very large majority.
Those who have made shining marks
in the newspaper field are almost all
from the outside. Charles A. Dana was
born in Hinsdale, N. II., and began ac
tive life us u clerk or man of all work in
a store in Buffalo. After he had been
there for a time ho entered Harvard, but
did not finish tho course. He went to
work on Tho Tribune under Greeley in
1847, after tho failure of the funioux
Brook Farm experiment. Ho left The
Tribune in 186:1 to serve as assistant sec
retary of war and when tho civil strife
was over essayed the establishment of a
daily ncwBpuper in Chicago without suc
cess. When ho came to New York the
secoud time, it was to reorganize The
Sun, and hiu success witli that paper is
of course known of all men.
Mr. Dana's most trusted lieutenants,
too. aro outsiders. Chester S. Lord,
managing editor, whose personality is
visible in The Sun's news columns every
day in the year, camo from Oswego.
John Swiuton, though thoroughly Amer
ican in sentiment, is a native of Dundee.
Scotland. Amos ,1. Cummings was born
in Conkling, Broomo county, N. Y., and
was the son of one country minister and
grandson of another. Ho cume to New
York and set type on The Tribune. lie
was among the early volunteers when
tho civil war broke out and fought
through ,to Chaiieellorsvllle. Then he
came back and was one of those who de
fended Tho Tribuuo offlco at the timo of
the draft riots. Since then he has been
a New Yorker in every sense, his ab
sence being only for recreation or wlien
necessary to be in his scat as a momlm.'
of congress. His early experiences wept
quite as tough as any my young friend
from Indiana is ever likely to go through
here, but ho is not sorry ho jiersovored.
Joseph Pulitzer is another outside inun
who has won iu the struggle hen.
though beforo ho eaiiio ho had learned
how to tight and won enough success to
satisfy most men.
Foster Coates. the bright and capable
managing editor of The Commercial Ad-
i vertiser. was nn Ohio boy. nud his fight
' bus all been in New York, for he began
to climb the ladder of success as an of-
j tico boy iu tie sanctum of The Mail and
LxpresB. John A. Cockorill. editor of
The Morning Advertiser, was a country
boy, too, and was born in Adams coun
ty, O. His early fighting was all done
elsewhere and when he came here with
Mr. Pulitzer ho had won a bright repu
tation by reason of his successes iu Cin
cinnati, St. Louis and elsewhere
Whitelaw Reid of Tho Tribune io an
Ohioun, as every one knows, and his re
wards have been great. Bind ford Mer
rill of Tho Press h a New Englander by
j umu, nut no mm made a soua reputa
tion before he camo here by his achieve
' meats on tho Philadelphia Press. George
j W. Turner of The Recorder and John
W. Keller, managing editor of tho same
' paper, wero both born out of New York
j E. J, Edwards was born in Connecticut.
' was n reporter for The Sun. Washington
i correspondent, and editor of The Even
1 ing Sun, and now writes tho fainoiiH
j Mllolland" letters for the Philadelphia
rress ami tno uiucago Tnbttno. John
Gilmer Speed came here from Kentucky
to bo managing editor of Tho World un
der Hurlbert ami is tiow doing soma cf
the best current magazine work. Julian
ftalph, "Jhe best reporter in the coun
try,." is fou New Jersey, and so is Ju
lian Chambers, and so is Richard Wat-
ion Qlldtrii-dlturi t .u Century, who)
brilliant s!tcr elitHT..oCritlo
Most if tut i', t.ie rr.uuntii' were
country beys. L'roi.soa Howard camo
here when little i.toro than u l.i 1 and b
gun i.s n rctortcr for The Tribune.
William Gillette ! from Connecticut.
Franklin rylcs wasn lepoi'.cr lit Tw
before ho came here. Augustus Tho:iu
Is from the west, AugnMln Duly from
North Carolina, and so on, In fact, a
list that thottld Include all the country
boys who have mado Mtcccr.se In litera
ture and the drama would include near
ly every tmiiio now heforq the public, 1
Is eo, too, in the nrt woild.
In business aUo tho country boys have
tho lead. Russell Uago was born In s
little central Now York town and began
life by working In his brother's grocery,
after which ho started u similar estab
lishment of hi own. Ills bttslnets rise
was steady and rapid, and though mos'
people have forgotten it ho was a con
spicuous political leader for a scots of
years before coming to, New York.
Thomas L, James, president of tho Lin
coln bank, camo hero from near Utica,
where ho published a country paper
His labors hero were first iu the custom
house; then he became postmaster of
New York nud then postmaster general
of the United States. When his term of
office was finished, he returned to New
York to go Into tho banking business.
W. It. Grace came hero from Irelam.
and has filled tho post of chief magis
trate of tho chief city of the laud, be
sides building up a mercantile buines
that reaches most countries in two con
tinents. Levi P. Morton was horn in
Shorelmni, Vt., and began his success in
Boston. Onco or twice even after he
camo to Now York he had pretty hard
battles to fight, but his successes over
balance everything of that kind, for In
sides winning great wealth he has licet
minister to France and vice president
His memory of his native place is shown
by tho name he gave tho big hotel he
built in Washington a fow years ago.
R. G. Dun is from ChiUicotho, O.. and
canto here in 1850, when 24 years old.
His success has been of the sort that
makes his name known in every mer
cantile establishment in the land.
D. O. Mills, the father-in-law of
Whitelaw Reid, is another country boy.
His uamo is associated tnoro with hii
achievements in California, where ho won
his fortune, than with any other pine,
but he was born in North Salem, N. Y.
in 182ft and when but 17 years of uge be
came a clerk in this city, leaving it
when the gold fever struck tho country
in 1848. John H. Sturin. the transpor
tation man, who has lately been promi
nent by reason of his connection with the
rapid transit commission, is a native of
Summonsville, N. Y., and began his ac
tive business career as a solicitor of
freight for railroads and steamboats
when but 17 years of nge. William Stein
way, the piano man, and also a member
of tho rapid transit commission, is a
native of Seesen, near Brunswick. Ger
many, and camo to New York in 1850.
C. L. Tiffany, whose namo will ever be
associated with diamonds and all sorts
of costly, handsome things, is a native
of Killingly. Conn., and camo to New
York when 35. Austin Corbin of the
Long Island railroad, sometimes called
tho king of the island, was born at New
port. R. 1.
Tho leaders of tho New York bar art
almost without exception natives of
places other than New York. Elihu
Root was born' in .central Now York.
Joseph Choate in Boston, William M.
Evarts in Boston. Daniel G. Rollins in
New Hampsliiio and J. C. Carter in
Massachusetts. John F. Dillon is a
western man. Colonel Fellows is a
southern man. Robert G, Ingersoll is a
nativo of Dresden. N. Y., where he was
born iu I8:i:i. He began the practice of law
iu the west and did not get to New York
until 1877, but ho has mado more money
here than in nil the other places he ever
lived iu.
Most of tho clergymen enrae to New
York. Robert Collyer is a nativo of
Yorkshire, England. Rev. Thomas Dixon
comes from tho couth. Moncuro D. Con
way, who is u journalist and author as
well as clergyman, is from Virginia. Dr.
McArthur was a country boy. aud so oa
through nearly the whole list.
ttr.v. tiiomas ntxoN.
Almost every one of the men who are
engaged in the wonderful work of de
veloping electricity along its new lines
wero country boys, and so wero nearly
all the railroad managers who aro now
prominent, excepting tho Webbs. Tho
merchants mid bankers were, however,
to a largo extent, natives of New York.
All this docs not mean that every one
can mako a success iu this or any other
big city. For every dizzy height attain
ed thero aro wide wastes of tho valleys
of failure, In order to succeed in tho
stress that comes with tho struggles of
tho city yon must bo osiescd of jut
tienco. nerve, talent, judgment aud in
dustry, nud all to 11 very marked extent.
This city and every other big city is
filled with men who lnivo left their ru
ral homes to struggle without meeting
what they consider adequate reward,
and yet many of them aro far abovo the
average as regards the qualifications I
have mentioned. In fact, in addition to
those qualifications you must have luck
on your side, and If you aro not prepared
to uccept failuro without grumbling if
it comes to you no big city is the place
for you. I. D. Makkhaix.
