HILL 0N RICHES RAILROAD MAGNATE SEES GOLDEN OPPORTUNITIES FOR RIGHT YOUNG MEN. Points to Marshall Field as Exam pe-HoIds Fortunes Not
 Harmful.

New Y0riV Feb. 14.-JdMeS J. Hill thinks there are plenty of openin@s for yonng men of the right stamp@to #aal1a fortunes in America, but he says there is no royal road to success T presume, said AIr. Hill in an interview, that nearly every young man would like to make fortune And how is the best way to do it?.' "Whaf To make a fortune? Why, cam it-work for it The man who does not work for his object will not achieve it.
 'To my way of thinking, all the wealth of the world comes from four .sources-the farm, the forest, the mine and the sea. But as to the best field of opportunity that all depends upon the man, and I am sure that good men are in greater demand now than ever"
 "Of course, MT. Hill, you look upcn the west, as does nearly everyone else, as the great field of endeavor for young men?"
 Naturally. being western man myself There are three vital ques. tons to be considered in the making of our west. and which every young man. whether he wishes to enter business or asricultural life, s1ould uaaera,ae3-irfj@afton, colonization md qG-e8arat On cut fHisaei1a se=t eaHza q ff is correctly aa7 #ez'sfsze= z9a1a= Taa= eaa==s5d 1R#e E

Nearly all the men at the head of eer biz enterprises in tke west arrived af lhetr position by hard work and bHll= dog tenaeity. Fiat is the story of the west, and I imagine the same con dition exists in the east, although l am not a New Yorker. There are scores of men who have come to the west without a dollar and who have made their way so as to become fore most citizens Marshall Field, whose memory we all revere, did it for one" And you did something of that kind yourself?'
 Mir. Hill indulged in another of his silent laughs and sent his expressive eyes shooting for targets all over the room.
 "Whatever I may have accomplish ec has been due to taking advantage of opportunities. I suppose that is the secret of my success-and I have never been watching the clock"
 "Is the accumulation of great wealth disadvantgeous to a mans manhood?"
 ',I never met a man that thought sc."
 "Yeu know David R. Forgan, the wee president of the First National Bank of Chicago, do you not?"
 Oh, yes indeed: I have known him for years. What has he done? Is there any reason why I should not know him?"
 Then the reporter read to Mir. Hill tie printed dispatch from Chicago in which Mir. Forgan expressed his views on the accumulation of wealth. Mr. Hills eyes lighted up with one cf his noiseless smiles.
 "l had not read that said he: Ssit eecaped me somehow in the turmoil cf business. Quite likely Forgan is rj9ht. have known him for years md he has usually been quite rieht in my acquaintance but I can not sit in 'udcment.'
 Do you believe With Mr. F,rgan tha15a mans soul does shrivel up with Nealth?'
 Now, Forgan's soul would never slrivel up with anything. He was born in Nova Scotia. I doubt if great wealth would even put a dent in that soul of his"
