od Of "Billy" Sunday In his preachlnss.
la Us hornet around which the atorm
centers. A ahort time afo, after one of
Kirkland' s sensational aermona, Mies
Kathleen Q. Hearn, principal of the
Aurora High school, wrote letter to
members of the .Ministerial association
requesting that association to send Kirk
land from the olty on the grounds that
the evangelist "la sowing In the ears of
the children the seeds of vlleness and
wickedness, and under tha cloak of re
Ittioa la preaching not Christ, but Kirk
land." ;
' . Mlalater Are Sliest.
Ko ackaowledrment ef the letter was
made by the Ministerial association and
it ts understood no action baa been taken.
following the composition of the lette
tha evangelist ts ald to have several
times taken occasion to refer Indirectly
la hla public addresses, or at least by
Inneado, to Miss Hearn In denunciation.
It la also asserted that Kirkland has not
modified the alleged otfenatve speech and
methods, but has, on the contrary, em
phasised them.
Two weeks after Miss Hearn sent her
letter to the ministers a petition was
circulated among the business men of
Aurora, and tt to said It was signed by
practically every man to whom it waa
presented. This petition aska that tha
Ministerial association make Dubllo a
statement which shall express either ap
proval or disapproval of the views ex
pressed by Kirkland with regard to the
character ef the high school principal,
fltlseas Roaaed.
Tha association continues to remain
silent In this matter also. It Is known
the evangelist when he earns to Aurora
ak4 tha local clergy to remain silent
If they were unable to approve of his
methods. But the degree of forbearance
whlqh tha ministers are maintaining la
beyond the understanding of the citlsena
of the city. '
Criticism of Kirkland has been almost
general throughout the town. He Is called
a mere "muckraker" by many and by
others a "Cheap Imitation of 'Billy Sun
day." The Aurora Republican of recent
flats print an editorial which Is entitled
"A Travesty on Religion." In denuncia
tion of Kirkland'a methods and the news
Paper appears to have expressed the senti
ment of tha entire population.
