Nominations and After from the Record-Herald
The Record-Herald argues the Republican party would have benefited from nominating a progressive third man at the Coliseum convention to unite the torn party. It notes 1880 parallels failed in 1912 as Taft and Sherman were chosen by regulars while Roosevelt trucked a provisional rank. It urges patience, nationwide reflection, and unity beyond party labels as a new balance of interests unfolds under evolving Baltimore and national conditions.

Odd Craft and River Journey Reported by Home Journal
A strange looking sailing craft, 21 by 10 feet, stopped at yacon over night on its way down the river. Captain Hendricks and a small black dog were aboard. He left Bridgeport, Connecticut eighteen months ago for the lower Mississippi, claiming ocean crossing in 1891 took 55 days and that he prefers the ocean to Lake Michigan for safety. An auto collision near Buda disabled a vehicle after the Rock Island flyer whistle was missed. The Lacon city council held a special meeting to fund a new bridge with bonds and taxes, planning bids within weeks, but a ratification election will be held on Monday July 22, 1912.

Michelin tire expert warns drivers to remove dust caps washers and other items from envelopes before tire fitting. Leaving parts inside envelopes can cause punctures with no apparent cause after miles of travel. An idle inner tube degrades in a garage but daily use keeps the companion tube flexible. The envelope on the car fares no harm from sun compared to a neglected tire.
