Present Groat Demand for Young Mon In Higher Offices-Why Thoy aro Prof erred Washington, November 27. -. "This is an ago of tho young man in government--of government by young mon," said A. lt. Serven, chief examiner of tho civil service commission, yesterday. Mr. Serven is tho praotioal man of Unolo Sam's big employment agenoy. Ho is an enoyolopaedia on the succosses and failures of the millions' who have enlisted in tho classified service and is botter qualified to advise tb o young man with ambitions for publio offioe than probably any other oflioial of tho govornmont. "The frequoooy with whioh gray chaired old mon aro turning over tho roins of government to youngsters in tho twenties, thirties and forties is amazing," continued tho , obiof examiner. Wo now have tho youngest of our Presidents in tho White House, somo mere boys in Congress, unbearded youths entering the insular service, well-nigh at the top of the ladder. It is so in noarly overy exeoutive dopartmont as well. I havo been looking tho matter up." "This is good stuff," interrupted tho interviewer. "Give mo a column of sermon for tho American boy to read." "The boys destined to beoomo public men aro thoso who are edu cating themselves. .-The great ma jority are going to roach publio oflioo by way of the college. Tho othor day I was looking at somo statistics of what aro supposed to bo the peo ple of attainment in Amorioa, and I found that noarly four-fifths aro per sons of highor education-graduates of universities. This, moro than anything, shows young America what is tho foundation for future usefulness. In these days of highor and more complicated development of civilization tho man or woman with systeinatio montai training and who enjoys averago health hasxfoi> obancos out of overy five to bocoihe a loader in sonic particular line. Tho fifth chance must como to him who has mado an extraordinary effort toward self-improvement outside thc organized educational ?nstilulioiiH ; who has dono an immense amount of privato reading and study. In a olass of students, Where ono works with othors, there is greater incen tive to progress than whore ono works alone. Hero is found tho sbouldor-to-sbouldcr spirit which profit so much for tho soldier. STUDY LAW. "Tell young America that in thc general walks of lifo, and particularly jn govornmont, tho groatost aid to conspicuous success will bo a knowl edge of law. Understanding of ab stract principles of law and their application to speeifio oases develops to analyzo probloms and to aliont points in any situation. onse scope of tho law, toaoh it does, all of tho relations of id, seems to endow tho lawyor a superior power regardless of ld of his operations.

"In tho last Congress two-thirds ot tho Sonators were lawyers, as wore noarly two-thirds of tho Kepro sentatives. Doubtless tho same pro portion will be found in the hext'. "A knowledge of stenography, coupled with that of , taw, is enabling young mon to rise rapidly, to higher positions in all branohos of tho Fede ral government. Tho supply of stenographers for the oivil sorvico has been, below the demand for several years. TEACH 80H00I? "Next to law teaching has sent more mon to Congress than any other" profession. It has furnished many reoruits to prominence in gov ernment generally. A notable num ber of mon in publio life have, in their early days, while preparing for higher fields of usefulness, earned their support while serving as in structors. "Tho most notable oase of the suc cessful young man in government who has entered through tho qualifi cations mentioned abovo is George B. Cortelyou, secretary to the Presi dent. Ho is still in his thirties. After finishing a normal school edu cation at 20 ho studied stenography and began life ns a general law and verbatim roportor when 21.

Four years moro and ho be oamo private seoretary to the post office inspector, arid lator of tho 8ur voyor of tho port of Now York.

Tho soorotarios to Senators, Representatives, Cabinet ofticors and buroau * ohiofs aro in elbow-touch with tho most influ ential mon of the nation every day. If endowed with diplomacy and courteous ways, and if wiso enough to equip themselves with law, ns woll as stenography, their chances aro tho very best.
