The Zebulon Racket.
Sheriff Howard and It. VV. Hale,
ofl’ike, paid the Nkws a pleasaat
call yesterday morning, aud incident
ally spoke of the little fracas at Zebu
Ion on circas day, which tho News
had mentioned on Wednesday morn
int{. The account that we first re¬
ceived seems to have been eomewbat
ineourato in seme reepeots. The faet
w»» that Mr, Ilala aad Mr — Stager
had played with a gambler fallowing
the circus on that day and had, as
j they claimed, been swindled. They
demaailed their money back and at
that point Howard forced his way
through the erowd, beiag obliged
to ssr a revolver t« do it, and inter
posed betwoea tha two parties, by
agreement taking the monev that
waa iu dispute, which he atterward
gave back to Hale and Steger.
The main error in our former ar¬
ticle waa that a mass meeting had
been held aad nomiaated another
candidate for sheriff. An attempt
was made to do this by the oppen
eutsoT Mr. Howard, but did not suc¬
ceed, and ha is still the regular
Democratic nominee, witheut oppos-
eit'on and expecting to have uane.

yesterday, to have so recently einergod

where, yet there is nc bickering or ani
luoeitiaa.but a geuaxon* spirit of rivalry,
which leaves no sting in an honorable
deseat. We would not have Griffin torn
by di-aentiou and wounded by private
auimoaitie*, like some other places we
can mention, for any consideration.
