The Great God Success
- David Graham Phillips
David Graham Phillips worked as
an investigative journalist for the New Your Sun and the

Success" sold so well that he left journalism altogether to
concentrate on writing fiction. Although written as fictional
accounts, most of his works explore a variety of social

railroads. 'Leave hope of fortune behind, ye who enter
here' is over the door of this profession. We pay fifteen
dollars a week at the start." -- "I haven't the

young candidate for the staff. He lowered his florid face
slowly until his double chin swelled out over his low
"stick-up" collar. Then he gradually raised his eyelids
until his amused blue eyes were looking over the tops of
his glasses, straight into Howard's eyes. "Why?" he
asked. "Why should we?"
