State reform school urged for women prisoners
Captain Charles Irwin told a Journal reporter that a proposed state reformatory for women would benefit Elizabeth by removing offenders from county jail and state prison. The House and Senate have advanced a bill to establish the institution with eight commissioners, at least four women, and all officers to be women. It would use a site off city grounds to provide education, occupation, and moral reform for girls over sixteen who cannot be sent to the state home or jail. The reform was praised as filling a longed-for need and would address recurring imprisonments of drink-addicted and other offenders in the county. The piece argues the reform school would offer constructive care until the disturbance subsides.
