PICKETT VERSUS RIGGS.

Adam Pickett of Creston, candidate
for state superintendent of public in
struction, has taken issue with Super
intendent Riggs, who is out for re-
election to fourth term.
Superintendent Riggs asserted in
his platform that he is for the abolish
ment of the school treasurer and the
placing of the school funds in the
hands of the county treasurer. Mr.
Pickett in his announcement says that
such plan would gain the school
districts nothing and would tend to
take money out of the district
superintendent Riggs favors the
plan of simplifying the country school
management by scheme of consol
idating the townships under one
board. Mr.. Pickett opposes this
plan. also.
Superintendent Riggs advocates the
enactment of law requiring the pay
ment of the high school tuition by the
home district of students who must
20 from their home district to another
district to high school because of the
lack OF such an institution in their
home district. Mr. Pickett sees nc
special good In this movement and
asserts further that practically all
students who 20 out of their district
to school have the necessary funds.
II Is very pretty quarrel as il
stands,
