Prosperity in the South Keeps Men at Home.?Civil Scrvico Commission After Recruits. i i A dispatch from Washington to the ' News and Courer says that the nil- ! preeedented prosperity of the south- . ern states at this lime and the bright { outlook for the futre is one of the main reasons why people from hat section are not entering I he governmenl service in lamer numbers. John A. Mel Ihcnv. of the civil service commission, who recently made a t'?ur ol the southern slates in an ^ endeavor to stimulate an interest in thai section in positions in govern- C nicnt work through the means of ihe I commission, is now preparing his re- * port to he submitted to the other nieiiiiiers o| the commission. in ad- ^ \auee id which lie speaks interesting- S l.v in an informal way of his trip, of ..

Mr. Mcllhenv found Ihe people generally hard at work with their crops, but lie had not the least difficulty in securing audiences with teachers associations, \ oung .Men's Christian associations, etc. Mesides * Ibis many college presidents, before whom Mr. Mcllheuy appeared, promised to instruct their students along ^ lines which would fit them for the < classes of work in the civil service. * There arc many obstacles in the ( way of securing eligible* for govern- j ment work in the south, as discovered by Mr. Mcllheuy. The people of that \ section, being largely of an agrieul- * tural class, are not quick to give up * the open, free life of the farm, where it is easy to make a living, to come to Washington and enter the government service often at small pay and surrounded, too, with the restrictions which the rules require. This is one reason, as found by Mr. Mcllhenv, | (j why there arc so lew eligible* for positions in the government service secured from the south. Another thi>ng he found was that south of Virginia?beginning with S'orth Carolina and extending all hrough (lie cotton belt?the erection ind operation of cotton mills are of'ering splendid inducements to deserving young men at ?ood salaries to liter the mills and learn the business. Many of them go into the factories, starling at the bottom, and learn each irocess nt' cotton manufacture, step >v step.
