THE FIRST ELECTION FIGHT.
William Ledbetter Strikes One Of Ham
Jones Deputies in the Mouth.

The first blood in this memorable cleo
ton in Raleigh was spilled yesterday
afternoon.

Of politics between William Lcdbetter
Dem) and Nal Haynes ,Rep.l one OF
Ham Jones office deputies. The fight
occurred on Fayetteville street, rear
Johnson's drug store.
During the discussion Haynes, it
seems, used words to which Ledbet-
ter objected and Ledbetter struck him
in the mouth, whereupon Haynes pulled
out knife and began cutting at Led
better The latter's clothes were cut in
several places, but his flesh was not
hurt.
During the fight Haynes knife acct
dentally struck the right hand of Mr..
