[Iowa City Republican,
Attorney General Milton Remley is
in the city today and expressed himself
to representative OF the Repub-

ment. He said that numerous persons:
desired him and Attorney General elect!
MILAN to make a test case of the mat
ter before the supreme court. Mr..
Remley stated however, that he would
probably take no such course as his
motives would be misconstrued In the
case. He did not care to so on record
in the supreme court az desiring to re-
tain his ONCE for another year as he
would reign anyway at the expiration

not bona hde In. his Intentions to retain
his seat that the supreme court would
not consider the case because above all

STATE NORMALs NOT WANTED.
dubuque Times.l
II transpires that a resolution against
more state normal schools was passed
at the recent meeting OF the Northeast
ern Iowa Teachers Association. tho
state Superintendent Barrett later suc-
ceeded in having substitute passed.
The state association, it will be remem-
bered, went on record in favor Of four
more normal schools before the last ses-
sion OF the legislature, but 1t developed
during the session that the sentiment Of
the state was against the proposition. II
was finally modified to call for only one
more school, but even this proposition
failed to pass The members could not
agree on location and there was a senti-
ment that Institutions supported by pri-
lvate or county enterprise should not be
exposed to further competition by the
State. The controversy will undoubt-
ledly be renewed at the next session OF
| the legislature and probably with the
same result-nothing accomplished.
4 Northeastern Iowa Is opposed to more
sta tie normal schools because the present
| fine institution at Cedar Fallsis credited
to this quarter Of the state and every
other quarter haa a county or private
enterprise which the state may take on
liberal terms but must not injure. The
value Of normal training is admitted,
but 1t seems to have been ordained that
81 in Iowa the unit Of the system must be
tile county and not the state. At pres-
ent the day when every county will havs
its normal school semes not go distant
as the realization Of the program the
State Teachers Association last winter
mapped out for the legislature.

Hi. Mistake a. to American Girls.

Germany met a young English officer
who was in the same city. and. in fact.
In the same house with her for two
months. studying German for his pro-
motion. Like most Europeans. he had
the usual absurd ideas about the girls
of this country. who. In the minds of
the untravelcd foreigner. are rather
hoyden creatures, who smoke and have
other masculine traits
After dinner one day In the early ac-
quaintanceship of the couple the Off
Ger offered the Louisville girl ciga-
rette, and upon her refusing 1t he said:
"Why. thought all the girls In the
United States smoked"
$50 we do" replied the girl, but
never cigarettes, only pipes. If you will
get that pipe Off the mantelpiece in the
next room | shall be charmed to smoke
with you"
Not suspecting the joke she was play
ing on him. the officer brought the pipe
and filed 1t, and 1t was not until he
saw the wry faces his friend made in
attempting to carry out the joke that
he appreciated the situation. He was

Thomas Edison used to have Nikola

near Paris. Tesla came to him one
day asking for work. and Edison, who
needed help. referred him to the fore
man, named Fulton. The latter took
the young foreigner on condition that
he would work. This Tesla did. For
three days and nights he never closed
his eyes. AT the end of the first fort
night he had not had 4S hours sleep all
together. and Fulton. the foreman,
made him take rest. He also said to
the young man that on account of the
strain they had both been under they
had better have good meal.
Accordingly the foreman and the
student went to well known cafe
on one of the boulevards and got one
OF the biggest and thickest steaks pos
sible. 1t was n whopper and seemed
to be overwhelming for two. Besides,
the furnishings were liberal, and there
was enough good wine. Between them.
however. they managed to make ev-
