Architect SchmiiZ Dismissed.

On Wednesday evening the following
correspondence passed between Comptroller
General Werner, Secretary Of the State
House Commission, and Assistant Archi-
tCCt SchmitZ:
COLUMBIA, S. c., Jan. 4, 1888.
-Hr. e. II. Schmtt&, assistant I,rAitcct
'St"tc IG0uSe, C0lUm6i0, s. c..
DEAR SIR: At a meeting of the State
House Commission, held this day, was
instructed to inform you that your salary
ceases this day as Assistant Architect. You
vii! also dismiss tho porter, aud YOU ale
requested TO turn over the keys, ETC., to
the Office.
Very respectfully,

The following letter from Mr.. Schmitz
was addressed to the State House Commits
sion:
y. -, >, CoLCMnIA, january 4, 1888.
/" Tire Honorable C0mmisSi0n:
GENTLEMEN: Your letter of january
informing me of my dismissal as Assistant
Architect, received. AS such summary
dismissal might hc construed as either re
HcctlhS upon my competency or otherwise
upon my personal character, your honOra.
pic body is hereby respectfully but earn
cStiy requested to give your opinion upon
these two questions in writing to me.
bclng not aware of doing any improper
action with which | could have been con
ncclcd, have done this step only for self
protection, and hope that you will do JUS
ticc.
Respectfully yours,
j.. j. SCHMITZ.
The explanation of tho matter is in all
probability this: BY the terms of the recent
supply bill the State House architect is re
quircd to reside in Columbia. This Mr.,
Nelson cannot do, on account of his bust
ness in baltimore. Somebody else will
have to be chosen, and in the interim the
work has been stopped, and the services of
Mr. Schmitz, incidentally and consequently
are not now required. There is evidently
no reflection upon Mr. Schmitz's into gritty
or competency implied in the dismissal. It
Is merely in accordance with the natural
cIure of events, and any application that
Mr. SchmltH has made, or will make, for
the position Of Architect Of the State House
VIII hc duly and properly considered
