E STAR Ge THE SEATTL Br v Wma, Sliy, Bho por mon. up t Foblished Datly by Phe Star Publishing Co. “T was not, I came to be; I was, T am not; that is all; and who shall say more, will lie.”—Unknown The Live Ones LT Take us by and large, there never has been a time when a people needed waking up as now We're huddled up in luxuries and sweet dreams of power or place or fame or ease, and even Hf we get all of these things we're no better off unless we wake up to wisdom in the use of them, : Now and then, here and there, an individual does rouse up fand rise up to something like the possibilities life affords just how, and one phenomenal thing about this awakening is that each fecls and is the equal of every other. A fellow ship of als and a brotherhood of minds exists that levels no walls and idges no gaps, because no walls or gaps divide them in race br custom or sex or creed. The big realities are the only things that appeal to them, such as making smooth the pathway for ak, tired or stumbling feet, or adding to the joy of the whole ty doing good work in the way each loves best j These wide-awake ones know that brotherhood is a fact; that the world was meant for us all and not just one here and Phere; and they know that holding fast each to each, keeping fwake and arousing others is the only way any of us can come fully into possession of the best there is. : They declare that a man who can create or appreciate @ icture Or a book owns it more truly than the man of dollars ah may only possess it. If the dollar man has ability or jation, and quite often he has (and quite often not), then ie first thing he wants to do is to share it with the other wide- Bwake ones. A dominant characteristic of sych “live wires” seems the Ylesire to share all things equally. If it is trouble, all right— hey’re for it; everybody pitches in and gets it over with. If it joy, it doubles every time they divide it with someone. The Gateway Amendment The progressive party has declared for an easier way of mending the constitution of the United States. This is one of the greatest progressive measures advocated by the new party. In this pledge it touches bedrock The test defect in our institutions lies in the fact that under Rice V of the constitution the people are bound hand and loot by the old constitution of 1787. We try and try to amend, but we cannot, even when we are almost unanimous, as we have been for generations in the matter of the direct clection of senators, the income tax and gome other measures. It is too hard. Selfish interests keep us from getting two-thirds in both houses of congress, and when that is obtained, from securing affirmative action in three- fourths of the states. The fight is so hard that we give up in despair. So long as the present method of amending the constitu- tion remains in effect such successful democracy as we have in i¢ United States is confined to the narrow limits of the states. bs ihe federal field the democratic aspirations of the people y be represented by a statue of democracy in fetters. . The gateway amendment plank is an lowa idea. In 1899 the democrats of lowa declared for the amendment of the con- itution of the United States by referendum vote after sub- ission by a majority vote of both houses of congress. Senator a Follette introduced in the senate a joint resolution proposing o amend Article V so that amendments may be submitted by Foesicrity vote in congress and adopted by a national referen- vote, provided that such vote includes a majority in a majority of the states. ‘The gateway amendment issue is before the people. Its portance is not yet fully realized. It is one of the greatest i in the campaign. Its injection into the field of national itics starts a battle which will rage until the old constitution es, instead of a shelter to plutocracy, a tool of democracy.

Verily, we have got to so live that the respectable dogs, pigs and sheep will be proud of us, anyhow. Observations ee OUCH! How dissolution hurts!
