WASHINGTON, July %. - Secretary
Lamar, wishing to correct rumors to
the effect that there had been some
thing offensive to him in his CORE
apondence, or intercourse, with civil
Service Commissioner Eaton, sent the
latter the following letter:
Department of Interior, Washington, July
81. lSS5.-Hon. Dorman b. Eaton, Chair
man Civil Service Commissions.
MY DEAR SIR:-Gours OF LIN instant
received. l had observed with deep
reCret some of the articles to which
Won refer and feel their injustice III
common with yourself. The letter
of June l did not in any way
reflect upon my action, Or that
of this department. IL il just and
proper that 1 should go further and
state that your cOmmunlcatlonst 10 nre
have been in entire harmony with my
own views-never, in any single IN
stance, lacking that kindness ana
good will which haYe characterlzeu
our official as we'll as our personal re-
lations. While regard no part Of my
entire country as my own section, YET
I do not iegret that the Civil Service
Commission has imposed upon me the
grateful duty of removing to some eX-
Cent the injustice which in
this branch of the depart
ment of the service has
been manifested against the locality
of my own birth and home under pre-"
cediug administrations and before the
Civil SeryIce Commission was estab-
,ishod, The appointing power, owing
to peculiar Causes, - not directed, as
r,IIe. to selections from the most in-
teIligent and best population OF the
South, The Civil Service Commission
has opened the channels OF puoiic en-
ployment to the most lntellgent
masses of all sections OF the country
alike, but the boundless wealth.
and business activity Of the North
divert most of its best literary, pusl-
ness and legal talent from these chan.
nels, while the South, with less cali lor
her men of ability and intelligence IN
walks of business life, offers 70 the
public service her best literary busl-
ness and legal talent. Your commits
sion has shown, and viii necessarily
show, in the competition of applicants
a larger proportion from which to Sc
lect among those States which have
not had their due proportlon'
Thus by means OF the action
of the commission the great work
of reform in departmental service Will
be steadily and benefcisuy equaiized
and promoted. Hoping that We, each
IN our several spheres, may In the
highest degree in our power contrl-
btite t. the general good, have the
honor to remain with great respect,
Very truly yours,
L. q. G. LAMAR.
