Right Doing from inclination.

Contemplate now the doings of one
whose acts according to Kant have no
moral worth. He goes through his daily
work not thinking Of duty to wife and
child, but having In his thought the
pleasure of witnessing their welfare: and
On reaching home he delights to see his
little girl with rosy cheeks and laughing
,yes eating heartily. When no hands
back to shopkeeper the shilling given in
excess Of right change. he does not stop
to ask what the moral law requires: the
thought Of profting by the mans mis-
take is intrinsically repugnant to him.
One who is drowning he plunges in to
rescue without any idea of duty. but be-
cause he cannot contemplate without
horror tho death which threatens. II for
) worthy man who is out of employment
he takes much trouble to find place, he
1oes 1t because the consciousness Of tho
mans difficulties is painful to him, and
because he knows that he will benefit not
only him but tho employer who engages
him; no moral maxim enters his mind.
b When he goes to see sick friend the
gentle tones Of his voice and the kindly
expression Of his face show that he Is
come not from any sense Of obligation,
but because pity and q desire to raise his
friends spirits have moved him. II he
aids in some public measure which helps
men to help themselves, it is not in pur.
suance Of the admonition "do as you
would be done BY" but because the dis
tresses around him make him unhappy
and the thought Of mitigating them gives
him pleasure. And so throughout; he
aver does the right thing, not in obedience
10 any injunction, but because he loves
The right thing in and for itself. And
now who would not like to live in world
where every one was thus characterized?

inside Facts About the Dssaatrous
1ressaee.


WAsH1NaToN,SN Nov. A.-The following
IL claimed to be the inside history of
President Cleve veland's famous tariff re-
duction message sent to congress last
December. Manton Marble is named as
the person who persuaded the President
to force tariff reform into politics, rs q
distinctive issue. Henry Wstterson
assisted Mr.. Marble in convincing the
President that this was the proper one to
pursue. The original draft of the mes
sage is said to have been made by Mr.,
Marble. As 1t was presented to congress
there were some chsnges from Mr.. Mar
ble's composition, but the main features
were preserved. When the President
first submitted the message to his cab
met Mr.. Whitney was absent from the
city. The other cabinet officers Endorsed
the Presidents determination to send
the document to congress.
Before the message was sent In. how
eyer. Mr.. Whitney returned to Washing
ton and was Immediately consulted by
President Cleveland upon the subject OF
the proposed decided tariff reform stand
to be taken by the administration. Sec-
retary Whitney at once suggested that
however wise and commendable the
proposition might be in tn, abstract, 1t
was not the proper time to east them up-
on the country. The secretary also
pointed out to the President one import
ant instance in which the alleged facts
advanced were not correct. In this Mr..
Whitney was found to be right and the
message was modified accordingly.
A special meeting Of the cabinet was
then called, at which the subject was
again considered, all of tho members be-
Ing present. Mr.. Whitney was alone in his
oppositionto the proposed measure, all
of his colleagues urging the expediency
of the measure at that time. The discus.
sion was very heated, Messrs. Whitney
and Villas exchanging bitter words dur
ing tho debate. It was finally determined
that the measure should 90 to congress
although the President was undoubtedly
disturbed by the position taken by Mr.
Whitney. whom he regarded as the
shrewdest political adviser In tho cab
met.
