UNDERMINING METHODS.
PLATFORM IN CAMPAIGN
HAD APPROVAL OF RIGGS
Many Of Rival Candidates Were Re-
dictionary and Appealed to Preiudices
Of voters-Dsyoe Stands For Ration.
al Progress in Conduct Of Rural
Schools Of State.

Des Moines. Aug. 9.-The advocates
of the Iowa school system to meet the
changing conditions and increasing de-
mands OF the people are Immensely
pleased with the selection Of Prof. A.
M. Deyoe, of Hancock county, as the
republican candidate for superintend-
ent Of public instruction. Mr.. Deyoe,
perhaps more nearly than any Of the
other candidates, stands for a contiu-
ance Of the now well settled policy
Of the department for rational pro-
gress in school methods. Some Of the
other candidates, in fact the most con-
spfcuous of the other candidates,
sought the favor of the voters by an
appeal to their prejudices and against
the existing order of things. This pol
icy was largely the work Of the late
Supt. Richard G. Barrett and carried
out and developed by Supt. John F..
Riggs. It looks to a thorough modern
ling Of the school system by leading
the school patrons to an understanding
of what Is best. When the recent cam
paign started Superintendent Riggs
scanned the various platforms of the
candidates and was quoted as saying
that the platform of Superintendent
Deyoe had his heartily approval. This
statement was as follows:
Unity of action among all the edu-
cational forces of the state on such
questions as may be determined to be
of special Importance.
"a general educational campaign for
improved common school conditions
appealing to the confidence Of the
people. An enlightened public senti-
ment will lead to legislation.
Secondary school privileges with
practical courses Of study for the coun-
try youth.
Better facilities for training teach
ers for the rural schools.
"Some provision for better super
vision of the rural schools.
sF'ewer school officers with definite
com pensation to such officers for the
performance Of the official duties and
attendance at school officers confer
ences.
Better social privileges respecting
rural life are important and may be
secured by making the schoolhouse
the center Of social and educational
gatherings.
"Proper recognition should be ex-
tended to such districts as meet cer-
tain standard in equipment as to build
ings. apparatus, and character OF
school work done.
"The rural schools and the graded
schools should be correlated with high
schools of required standard, with
uniform examination for promotion
from the eighth grade.
"The present certificate law is to
be commended as promoting profess
sional growth among teachers by fav-
orlng the experienced and we'll quail
fed teachers.
1.-THE essential function Of the pub
lie school is to teach WE'LL The common
branches must be considered Of first
Importance, and a thorough knowledge
of each school and the work of the
teacher should be held as the chiefest
duty Of the county superintendent.
This knowledge can best be gained by
poinpJipp with the schools"
