OF the Girls Reform School, claiming that

is set apart Tor tine unfortunate girls of

of the High School, and Miss E. F. G.
Merritt, principal OF the Garrett School,
under the direction OF the Protective Union,
presented petition signed by 2,0G0 col
ored women of Washington, to the Attor-
ney General on Saturday last, asking that
he recommend to the President the name
OF Mrs. HELEN A. Cook to fill one OF the
vacancies which will soon occur. The peti
ton states:
We are strongly convinced that If one
or more colored women, we'll known in the
community for thei r useful lives, benevolent
disposition, strong desire to ameliorate the
condition of all classes of unfortunates,
infIuei,ced by proper sense OF race pride,
and by class sympathy; women whose
upright living furnishes guarantee of
their disposition to have all do right, were
selected by you as trustees, helpers in this
Christian work, this girls reform school
would grow in usefulness and become diff
ferent from what it Is at present
1--WE feel IL is Il case of taxation without
representation said Mrs Failey, chair
man OF the committee The board Of
trustees of the reform school is composed
entirely OF white persons at the present
time, and all OF those in charge are white
The central relief committee and the Board
OF Chidren's Guardians, whose work IL is
20 look after the welfare OF the unfOrtun-
ate orphans of both races, are composed of
members OF both races and therefore il
seems to us especially fitting and Just
then that this institution in which are con
fined the unfortunate girls OF our race
should have representative Of the race
on its hoard OF managers
The colond population Of The District
are unanimous in thinking that a much
better system could be inaugurated at the
school if a person of the same race as the
inmates was brought into contact with
them. and that possibly race sympathy is
wanting there. We want it clearly under
stood that this is no fight we are making.
We are only asking what every honest
man and woman in this community would
ask under the circumstances. Mrs. Cook
is graduate OF Oberlin College, highly
cultured and refined. is especially firted
for the position on the board Of trustees

concluded TO retain Weyler as captain

Canovas aud WeyleT are creatures Of the
