by the keen competition which exists
in the larger cities of New England
and the West The liberal use of
printers ink, the show window display
and other means of attracting atten-
ton were utilized, and have undoubt-
edly been causes by which they have
secured such a foothold in the South
eTn States, and have been so success
full.
Other reasons which have contribut-
ed to securing business have been
economy and frugality. So many Jew
tsh merchants have started, so to
speak, at the bottom of the ladder, that
they have learned to appreciate the
value of reducing the cost of running
of making the business develop itself,
as already noted, has been very largely
followed, consequently many an estab
lishment has been enlarged entirely
from the profits which have accrued
from it. In this respect the progress
of not few of the dry goods and de-
partment stores in the South have been
similar to that of cotton mills, which
have been expanded in the same man
ner. In every important community in
the Southern States can probably be
seen examples of this mercantile de-
velopment. 1t is especially notable in
Baltimore where within the last few
years some of the most pretentious de-
partment and other stores in the Unit
ed States have been erected almost en-
tirely with funds accruing from the
business which they have been compell-
ed to accommodate
There is no question but the invest
ment of Jewish capital merely in mer-
camille enterprises in the Southern
States has been a great benefit to this
section, and in more than one way.
While it has given employment to a
large number of people of other faiths
in the various establishments, the eff
feet in undermining the methods of
trade has been of great Importance.
1t must be admitted that in their way
of doing business the Southern mer-
chants as a rule have not kept pace
with their brethren in other parts of
the country. 1t is but natural that
the easy-going methods which prevail

the proportion in New Orleans is be-
lieved to range between 70 per cent and
80 per cent But as already stated,
their enterprises have not been con-
fined to the larger cities, and it may
be said that every portion of the
Southern States is included in their
field of activity.
Under these circumstances the ques-
tions naturally arise. Why have they
become so very numerous in the South
and why so successful? If they were
not getting along" in their business,
to use popular phrase, they would
undoubtedly go elsewhere, and the
in progress since the war, would be
diverted in another direction. That
