To the Editor of the Dispatch: I regret very much to ask ycu to drop my name from the list of candidates and doubly regret my inability to respond to the call of my many friends who announced me as well as those who have solicited me from almost every section of the county to enter the race for Supervisor. I can only answer them with many thanks and appreciation of the trust and confidence they have reposed in me. I had made up my mind not to be in politics at all, for I have my business so arranged that it is im- ! possible to make the race. I am sorry that I was unable to decline earlier, but being pressed with my work and having a case of typhoid fever in my family I could not do so earlier. Allow me again to thank my j many friends and the good people of the count^ for favors shown rue in the past and expressing the hope that I may be of some service to them in the near future, I remain, respectfully, George H. Koon. Scholarships Examinations.

Tbe following dispatch is published in tbe New York Herald: From the lips of Wiliism F. Sbeean Judge Parker this evening learned of tbe reception his message on tbe gold standard received in St. Louis. Mr. Sheehan talked with Judge Parker for an hour, going into the fullest details, and lauding the work of Senator Tillman, whose labors in behalf of Parker at the critical mom ent Mr. Sheehan described as being "a perfect bulwark against tbe oppositionists."

Senator Stone of Missouri tells a story illus .atiDg the difference of punctuation in different parts of the country. **?t is related, says tne Senator, "that when the first tide of New England settlers began to drift to Kansas, Missourians tied a cow at each crossing of the Missouri river. If the emigrant said 'cow' he was permitted to cross, but if be said 'keow' he was told to return to the east, because the natives were satisfied that he was an evil minded abolitionist. The Kansas people evened up by tying a bear on their side of the river and if the emigrant said 'bear' he got the right hand of fellowship, | but if he pronounced it 'bar' he got | an hour to get back to Missouri, be- i cause he was an advocate of slavery." i A Serious Question.
