Senator Voorhees and the Lincoln Silver Debate
The piece rails at the so called friends of silver in the senate and praises Voorhees for fulfilling his duties. It notes Manhattan Day at the Pair and New Yorkers turnout, criticizes the McKinley tariff and law, mocks Tarne as a tribal rule, and highlights Senator Martin as industrious. It mentions a senate quorum standoff and President Cleveland’s push for repeal of the Sherman act, framing Indianapolis election results as not politically significant.
Voorhees Defends Majority Rule in Senate Session
Senator Voorhees declares that the Senate must adopt rules to conclude debate and vote. He vows to stand for the majority and constitutional government, opposing dilatory tactics and any compromise on fundamental principles. He emphasizes free government and self-government as central to the current financial legislation debate.

No clear event but a quote on virtue and street life
