Brought About by Dillon's
Withdrawal.

Columbus. July ;?.?Membcrj of the
Ohio Republican state Central Com?
mittee, which Is charged with the se?
lection of a nominee for the Governor?
ship to succeed Judge K. B. Dillon, of
Columbus, havo received Invitations
from President Taft to lunch at the
White House with the President ard
Mrs. Taft Thursday, according to M
A. Karehner, member of the commit?
tee from the Twelfth District.
The unusunt turn in the affairs In
the Republican party caused by judge
Dillon's withdrawal has caused many ,
... tures as to what will transpire i
..t the conference! with the President i
should the committee accept the Invl
tatlbn.
\\ III Meet Wednesday.
The committee will meet Wednesday
afternoon In this city and should Pres- |
idrnt T..ft's invitation bo accepted will
probably leavo at once for Washlng
It became apparent to-day that the
central committee win not in all pcob- j
ability undertake the selection of a j
nominee To succeed Dillon. Under the
action of the Hepubllrnn State Con- |
ventlon July the committee must ar?
range for the selecting of a successor
to Judge Dillon, but Is not bound to
make the Fbolce Itself
Two plans are belr.jr considered by
the con.mltteemen. One Is to Issue a
call for a second State convention and
the other Is to Issue a call for direct
primaries for tho naming of a guber?
natorial nomine?.
Mr Karahner Is In favor of the di?
rect prlninry plan of selecting another
nominee He Is ? Roosevelt supporter
and during the spring primaries In
this State managed the Roosevelt
campaign in this district.
Republican* Interested.
Washington. July 29.?Ohio Republi?
cans at tlm capita! are Interested In
the withdrawal of Judge Dillon, the
Republican candidate for Governor, In
the pollt'cal possibilities entailed by
bis a lion. The circumstances leading
up to Judge Dillon's step are under?
stood here to bo as follows:
Judge D'Hon sought and received, as
he thought, assurances from the pro
f-ress've faction In the convention
which nominated him that bis nomina?
tion would be acceptable If He got the
majority In th ecohveht'on. He insisted
upon having this assurance, because
?ri the first place, he had bun put for?
ward as a candidate to harmonize nil
fact le.ns
He was satisfactory to the "wets"
and the "drys" on the liquor question;
He was acceptable to Methodist and
Catholic, to Hebrew and Gentile, on re?
ligious matters, and he thought he
surely would be acceptable to the two
factions of all who called themselves
Republican His nomination was hail?
ed as an augury of harmony by the
distressful Republicans, who have suf
f. red most ?f the Ills of old Job him?
self In a political way.
Ilron-n si?rls Trouble.
Then, as the story goes, Judge Dillon
?.ni to Toledo and had a talk with
Walter I Blown, the Roosevelt leader
i the Slate it <s eald Brown notified
him that he must come out for Roose?
velt or els,- a third party would be
organised In the State. While Judr;e
Dillon was privately considered to lie a
Taft man. he had not taken sides w'th
either of the presidential factions; in
the contrary, as stated, he was to havo
been the harmonlzer. whose task was
to hare ?lev to pull through the state
ticket, electi;a Republican governor.
If possible; heln t?o save the country
and legislative tickets. ariM all that
sort of thing.
But when Brown gave that dictum
Judge Dillon Is alleged to have replied
in effective, though Inelegant language,
that he md not propose to be made u

THE SPHINX AND THE GREAT PYRAMIDS of the ancient Pharaohs of Egypt, constitute one of the seven wonders of the world,
being the biggest things of their kind in all the world. It is interesting to recall that the grains representing the "corn" of the bible,
found in the tombs of the Kings, buried several thousand years ago, have been planted, and have, it is claimed, after the lapse of all these
years, sprouted and grown in certain parts of the world. The big package of Washington Crisps is, likewise, the greatest thing of its kind
in the world?a mighty force for strength and health throughout the world.

The SUPREME quality of Washington Crisps is absolutely beyond question, being made from the finest white corn grown in the great
Corn Belt of the United States, with pun cane sugar and salt added. They are thoroughly steam cooked, toasted, deliriously crisp, and
are ready to serve. On every package is the unqualified GUARANTEE of the manufacturer that every ingredient in
is of as HIGH QUALITY as the ingredients used in the manufacture of cereal foods of ANY other make RE< iARDLESS OF Tl IF. COST ;
and the further GUARANTEE that Washington Crisps are made under the MOST PERFECT SANITARY CONDITIONS
POSSIBLE TO CREATE, IN MILLS THAT ARE SPOTLESSLY CLEAN, AND BY HIGH CLASS SKILLED WORKMEN.
Washington Crisps, during all the processes of manufacture, from flaking to packing, never touch human hands?everything is done by
automatic machinery.
The fact that the 250,000 retail Grocers in
mending Washington Crisj )s, which the Grocers
