WASHINGTON.—The hackling and boo-
VV ing business isn't as nearly as ex-
citing as it used to - be. President Hoo-
ver's method, and that generally used by
candidates nowadays, is to Ignore Inter-
ruptions. The theory is that It Ignored
the disturbing persons will grow discour-
aged snd quit. It takes all the fun out
- of heckling and booing.
In the old days it'must have been a
lot more fun to boo a speaker. In the
Republican political textbook compiled by
Horace Greeley Is'a verbatim account of a
political meeting at the Academy of Mu-
sic, which shows an old-fashioned orator,
dealing with hecklers as follows: *
Charles O’Conor speaking:' I insist
that negro slavery is not unjust. (Long
continued applause.) It is not unjust; it’
is just, wise amd beneficent. (Hisses
followed by applause and cries of "put
him out.'") Let him stay, gentlemen.
Serpents may hiss, but good men will
hear. . (Cries of "put him out" again;
calls to order; confusion fr a time.)
The chairman If anybody hisses here,
remember that everyone has his own
peculiar way of, expressing himself, and
as some birds 'only understand -hissing,
they must hiss. (Applause.)
Mr. O'Conor: Gentlemen, there is an
animal upon this earth that has no faculty
of mailing-Its sentiments known in any

We hope that in future primaries men
will come forward who will debate the
