 That they are not satisfied with the, report of the committees investiga- tions which reported on the affairs of the institutions;
 That the negroes all over the state are anxious that color cut no figure in the. matter, but that every phase of the rumOrs regarding the immoral reputation which hangs over the in- stitution be investigated;
 That there are others connected with the school, who have been living under cloud and should be investi- gated;
 That the better,element of the white people in many sections of the state are not willing that negro children be subjected to being taugh'. by those who cannot give a clean bill of health morally;
