A ROWDY MEETING.
AIR S. G. HOLLAND DENIED A HEARING. DUNEDIN, Last night. Similar tactics to those employed at meetings recently addressed in Dunedin on behalf of. the National Party by Mr J. Hargest, M.P. for Awarua, were repeated at the concert chamber of the Town Hall when Air S. G. Holland, AI.P. for Christchurch North, addressed an audience which packed the building. The speaker was subjected almost throughout to a chorus of interruption, and it was -only with the greatest difficulty that he could make himself heard; in fact, much of his address was entirely lost on account of the loud and continuous volume of sound from the body of the hall. Mr Holland remained quite unperturbed and handled the audience with great tact, but his appeals for a fair hearing fell on deaf ears.
