len Injured by
Bomb Explosions.

New York. Jan. 13.-Ten persons were
injured tonight by an explosion of three
dynamite bombs which partially
wrecked six-story tenement building
OH Last 64th street. The injured were
removed to Flower hospital.
Inc dynamite bombs were planted in
the cellar Of the tenement and xplod-
ed one after another in quick success
sion. The explosion threw the occu-
pants of the tenement into panic and
there was much excitement amCng the
patients and nurses of Flower hospital,
short distance away. Scores of per-
sons rushed from the adjacent houses
and the police had all they could do
to quiet the terror-stricken.
The first explosion occurred directly
under the front windows of the tene-
ment, the second was directly under the
hall stairs. which wrecked the wood
work for several feet, and the third
directly under the sleeping apartments
of Andrew Asquaro, who lived with
his family on the first floor The police
would not allow the tenants af the
house to use the wrecked stairway, as
1t was considered too dangerous to use.
An alarm Of fire had been sent in soon
after the explosion and the firemen
helped the tenements out of the build
ing by means of ladders.
There are a number of Italian fami-
lies among the tenants in the house
and the police believe that the bombs
wer exploded by members of the Black
Hand Society. The police have learned
that a stranger was seen lettering in
front of the tenement just before the
first bomb exploded.

Bristow's Stand

bristow and Stubs with their re
FORMED planks in the Republican plat
form caused a great fight in the Re
publican council at Topeka last week
These reformers won the nomination
on popular measures and thew know
'nat they had to have popular
measures in their platform to even
nave a small show. in the general
eiection. Therefore they insisted ND.
on the insertion of such items as the
oank guaranty law and the election
Of senators by direct vote of the
people and the campaign publicity
law in their platform. These blanks
are directly taken from the Democrat
&c party as also are the physical val
uatlon of railroads and the anti.lob.
Oy plank Now the question is what
the Republican candidates are going
TO do with these planks now that
they have them. 1t is especially up
TO Mr. Bristow to show what he will
DO with the bank guaranty plank
and the publicity plank in this cam
paign. The national Republican con-
vention declared against the bank
guaranty law and Senator Long as
one of the trainers of the national
Republican platform spoke and vot-
ed against these planks in the par
ty council for that reason. The cam
paign publicity plank the Republican
national convention would have moth.
ing to do with. They would not ev-
en- say or admit that they are hon
est. They did say, in effect, wait
until after the election and when
We get through with you, then we
will tell you whether we are honest
Or not" Mr.. Bristow's platform
lacks support. He cannot fasten it
to the national Republican platform.
He cannot make it harmonize with
the conservative element of his oNnI
party. The only place where it does
fit is with the Democratic platform.
Right here is where the voters OF
the state must not let themselves be
deceived. Bristow's platform is a
good one. He has taken most of the
good parts from the Democratic plat
form but he has nothing to fasten to.
Mr.. Bristow would belong to the
Republican ranks if elected and what
good would a Republican elected on
the Democratic platform be in the
United States senate? He would be
a misfit and worse than a useless
member. He could not aid his par
ty in accordance with his platform
and he would not be a Democrat. II
the voters of Kansas want to elect
a senator on the Democratic platform.
would not it be wise for them to cleo,
