ed. Alexander Tille, vol. xi, p. 191). “The weak and ill-
constituted shall perish.... What is more injurious than any
crime? Practical sympathy for all the ill-constituted and weak—
Christianity” (“The Antichrist,” ibid. vol. xi, p. 238). This way of
thinking and talking is by no means exclusively modern.
Callicles, in Plato’s Gorgias, says to Socrates: “And therefore
this seeking to have more than the many is conventionally said
to be shameful and unjust, and is called injustice, whereas
nature herself intimates that it is just for the better to have
more than the worse, the more powerful than the weaker; and
in many ways, among men as well as among animals, and
indeed among whole cities and races, that justice consists in
the superior ruling over and having more than the inferior”
(Jowett’s Dialogues of Plato, vol. iii, p. 72).

“The animal species in which individual struggle has been
reduced to its narrowest limits, and the practice of mutual aid
has attained the greatest development, are invariably the most
numerous, the most prosperous, and the most open to further
progress” (Kropotkin, Mutual Aid (1909), p. 293). See also

“‘Ye have compassion on one another’: this struck me much:
Allah might have made you having no compassion on one
another,—how had it been then? This is a great direct thought,
a glance at first hand into the very fact of things” (Carlyle,
Heroes and Hero Worship, “The Hero as Prophet”). The
Gâthas have the same thought: “Who, O Great Creator! is the
inspirer of the good thoughts (within our souls)? Who ... hath
made the son revering the father?” (Yasna xliv. 4, 7, Sacred
Books of the East, vol. xxxi).

“In the new way of looking at things, which came to the world
from Darwin, there is hope and cheer, if we but take the matter
aright. Only consider what his doctrine of the shaping power of
environment is leading us to do in bettering the conditions of
the poor, the defective, the prone to crime. His demonstration
that circumstances may make or break a man, is a clarion call
to humanitarian zeal. And his teaching of the infinite variability
of species, and of the indefinite progress which man may make
in the cultivation of humane and moral qualities, is one that
looks distinctly to the perfectibility of the race.”—The New York
Nation for January 7, 1909, p. 7.

Psychology (1898).

When in 1654 matches for cockfighting were forbidden in
England the reason for the prohibition was not that it was cruel
to the birds, but for the reason that the matches were
“commonly accompanied with gaming, drinking, swearing,
quarreling, and other dissolute practices” (Pike, A History of
Crime in England (1873), vol. ii, p. 186). Consult further, Lecky,

Darwinism has without doubt also aided the vegetarians in
their crusade against the use of animal flesh for food, and in
conjunction with the influence of Eastern ideas and convictions
may cause ultimately a great change in the ethical feelings of
the Western peoples respecting this practice. They may come
to regard it with the same deep moral reprobation as is now felt
by Eastern moralists. “For my part,” says the Japanese writer
Nitobé, “the surprising thing is that European ethics can be so
atavistic as to stoop to a sort of cannibalism” (Fifty Years of
New Japan (1909), vol. ii, p. 462).

Christian Ethics (1892), p. 11. Lecky makes a similar
observation: “Generation after generation the power of the
moral faculty becomes more absolute, the doctrines that
oppose it wane and vanish, and the various elements of
theology are absorbed and recast by its influence” (History of
Rationalism in Europe (1890), vol. i, pp. 351 f.).

“It is because the ethical ideals of Christendom have become
so wonderfully enlarged and perfected within the last half
century that the character of God has taken on such new and
glorious forms. The God whom Christian people generally
believe in and worship is a very different being from the one
they were thinking about and praying to when I began my
ministry.”—Washington Gladden (in report of address).

“Along with the gloomy record of the two hundred fifty years of
negro slavery we find the history of its abolition; perhaps the
most impressive history on record of the origin and completion
of a purification of the moral consciousness of peoples.”—

“In Elizabeth’s time Sir John Hawkins initiated the slave trade,
and in commemoration of the achievement was allowed to put
in his coat of arms ‘a demi-moor, proper bound with a cord’;
the honorableness of his action being thus assumed by himself
and recognized by Queen and public.”—Spencer, Principles
of Ethics (1892), vol. i, p. 468.

By a provision of the Peace of Utrecht (1714) England secured
the contract known as the Assiento, which gave English
subjects the sole right for thirty years of shipping annually 4800
African slaves to the Spanish colonies in America.
756
In the Southern colonies the opposition to the further
importation of negroes sprang in general from the fear of the
insurrection of the slaves, should they become too numerous.
The little opposition that existed in some of the Middle States
was based almost wholly on economic grounds.
757
The first abolition paper was established in 1821, but the
movement it represented soon died out. The movement started
anew with the appearance of The Liberator in 1831. See Albert
Bushnell Hart, Slavery and Abolition (1906), pp. 173 ff.
758
“When Garrison began his work, he thought nothing was more
like the spirit of Christ ... than to bring a whole race of people
out of sin and debasement, ... but he soon found that neither
minister nor church anywhere in the lower South continued to
protest against slavery; that the cloth in the North was arrayed
against him, and that many northern divines entered the lists
against abolition, especially Moses Stuart, Professor of
Hebrew in Andover Theological Seminary, who justified slavery
from the New Testament; President Lord of Dartmouth College,
who held that slavery was an institution of God, according to
natural law; and Hopkins, Episcopal bishop of Vermont, who
came forward as a thick and thin defender of slavery. The
positive opposition of churches soon followed” (Albert Bushnell
Hart, Slavery and Abolition (1906), p. 211). In 1832 took place
the secession of students from Lane Seminary, Cincinnati,
because the trustees and Dr. Lyman Beecher had forbidden
them to discuss the slavery question. Four fifths of the student
body withdrew.

His Essay on Crimes and Punishments appeared in 1764 and
produced a profound impression. It did much to abolish torture
in judicial proceedings.

“In proportion as punishments become more cruel, the minds
of men, as a fluid rises to the same height with that which
surrounds it, grow hardened and insensible.”—Beccaria, An

“The whole conception and method of these courts suggests
the religious spirit and almost startles us with its indication of
the spiritualizing of the civil power.”—Edward O. Sisson, “The
State absorbing the Functions of the Church,” International
Journal of Ethics for April, 1907, p. 344.
770
The progressive purification of the social conscience may be
traced further in the changed feeling in regard to dueling,
lotteries, gambling, and the use of intoxicating liquors. Less
than a century ago dueling was common among all the
European peoples. To-day in all Anglo-Saxon lands the duel is
condemned by the common conscience and prohibited by law.
During the last few decades in the United States lotteries have
been transferred “from the class of respectable to a class of
criminal enterprises.” So too is it the growing moral disapproval
of the use of alcoholic drinks that has caused drunkenness
both in England and in our country to become much less
common among the reputable members of society than it was
only two or three generations ago.
771
Thus formulated by the distinguished jurist James Brown Scott.
Cf. Report of the Seventeenth Annual Lake Mohonk
Conference (1911), pp. 35 ff. Professor Scott here shows how
the growth of juridical institutions between nations is similar to
that within nations, only later and slower. The stages of this
growth are self-redress, arbitration, courts of justice.

We cannot concur with the author, Norman Angell, of The
Great Illusion in his contention that there will be no change in
the practice of nations regarding war and preparations for war
till there is a change in ideas respecting the economic
advantage to be derived from successful war. Moral idealism,
finding expression in revolutions and reforms, is constantly
giving denial to the validity of the economic or materialistic
interpretation of history when the economic motive is thus
made the dominant motive in human action. War will become a
thing of the past only when men can no longer fight with a
good conscience.
782
Machiavelli (The Romanes Lecture for 1897).
783
This archaic nature of the code is shown especially in its
retention as a survival of the principle of collective
responsibility, which, long outgrown by ordinary morality, still
forms the very basis of the war system. Again, the true nature
of the war code as a heritage from the low level of savagery is
shown in its retention of the primitive rule that the one suffering
an injury shall be the judge of his own cause and the avenger
of his wrong, a principle of self-redress long since discarded by
the private law of all civilized peoples.

Telemachus was an Asiatic monk who journeyed to Rome for
the purpose of making a protest against the bloody spectacles.
“The Romans were provoked by the interruption of their
pleasures; and the rash monk, who had descended into the
arena to separate the gladiators, was overwhelmed under a
shower of stones. But the madness of the people soon
subsided; they respected the memory of Telemachus, who had
deserved the honors of martyrdom; and they submitted without
a murmur to the laws of Honorius, which abolished forever the
human sacrifices of the amphitheatre” (Gibbon, Decline and
Fall of the Roman Empire, chap. xxx).
