ROTTEN, SAYS BISHOP.
DR.. McVicHcar attacks the Political
Machinery of Rhode Island.

Providence, r. L, May 19.-The Right Rev.
William y. McVickar. Bishop Coad1utor OF
Rhode Island in his address to the annual do
cesar convention Of the Episcopal Church TO-
dav in speaking OF Christian citizenship, de-
clared that the political machinery in this State
at the present day was corrupt to rottenness'
The Bishop added:
81 speak of the call and duties Of Christian
citizenship in a day OF darkness and gloom for
the State and nation WELL when the very
foundations of our God given heritage are, 1 be-
ueve. at stake 1t is the Church's bounden duty
to realize the situation and sound the alarm
That the political machinery by which we are
governed is corrupt to rottenness is not too much
to say. 1t is fragrant and defiant. and its effects
or the community are everywhere known and
felt. 1t is bad enough to be badly governed; IL
is worse TO know that the laws which are to be
made and the Offices for their administration are
spells and loot to be acquired at a price in the
interest OF any party or any scheme. no matter
how selfish evil may be its aim, and that all
chance for the expression of the popular con-
science or popular right through the baIot-the
one practical method apart from revolution-is
either prevented or choked."
