STUBS DENIES IT.
Denies Story About Orgy at the State
House.

Governor Stubs has issued state
ment in regard to the story that has
been circulated about an orgy having
been held in his Office some time ago
in which he brands the whole thing as
an infamous falsehood. The governor
is worked up about this method of con-
Quoting campaign and does not hest
tate to Indignantly express himself about
ire originator of the story as well as
the story itself
At the time the bankers convention
was held in Topeka Governor Stubbs
had just returned from a trip in the
southwest part of the state where he
VAS taken sick from drinking the all
kaline water in that section. He was
conhned to his room for several days
and had to cancel some dates. He
came down to his Office before he had
recovered. and while at work there
was taken i'll. To be plain about it. he
threw up little of his dinner. When
the janitor cleaned the office next day
be told some ore about the incident.
Instantly some of the enemies of the
governor and Bank Commissioner Dol
ley got hold of it and proceeded to
spread the story among the visiting
bankers and use Dolley's name in con-
nection with it.
In view of this fact. Governor Stubs
has issued the following statement OF
tie real facts in the case:

Routsong, editor of theOnagaRepublic

ARE BUYING HOMES.
Capitol Building & Loan Association
Shows Topeka's Growth.

In a few short wears practically ev-
cry dollar loaned on real estate in To-
peka will be furnished by home people
through the building and loan associa-
lions of the city.
Topeka and her people are proud of
the big associations which have devel-
oped in Shawnee county and the sup
port of these sound institutions and the
advantages offered by them to the peo-
pie who are trying to save little MON
ey, buy home or make improvements
Is highly appreciated.
The manner in which the public hold
these associations is reflected in the
statement of one for instance, the Capt.
tol Building and Loan association,
whose statement appears on another
page OF this issue of the Topeka State
Journal
The Capitol Building and Loan asso-
citation. during the past six months, has
increased it's loans $94,915 and the re-
markable feature of these loans is that
80 per cent of that amount has been
used in building or buying new homes
in Topeka.
the man who is receiving the advan-
tages of this institution is shown by the
fact that of nearly ninety-fve thou
sand dollars loaned, IS per cent of the
loans have been for less than $4,000.
The increased assets of the Capitol
Building and Loan association show a
phenomenal increase during the six
months past. The statement shows in
creases in the association assets of
$103,7S9.7S. No other institution in
the west offers much better opportun-
ity for investment of money when by
the sworn statement of the Capitol
shows that $40,744.17 of dividends
were either paid or credited back to
the accounts of the investors during
the last half of the fiscal year.
