Night Session of the Senate Hosts a Lively Satirical Poem
In a Washington session the debate sharpened as Senator Vance read a verse titled The girl with one stocking a protective pastorale mocking high tariffs. West and Saulsbury opposed while Sherman led Republicans. The gallery roared, and even some senators laughed. A dentist petition and stray quotes from the New York Evening Post closed the scene?

The Republican Tariff Bill in the Senate
The Detroit Free Press condemns the Senate tariff measure as a dishonest, protectionist monstrosity that serves monopolists. It argues the bill harms woolen and wool industries, blocks tariff reform, and predicts failure to reduce taxes in the current Congress. It warns Republicans will bear responsibility when the next Congress acts.

Salt Duty Defeated by Republican Senate Vote

It frames protectionism as led by monopolists and criticizes past Republican senators.

No Excuse for It Tariff Debate Hits Buffalo Fish
The Buffalo fish trade moves about 1,000,000 pounds weekly with three quarters from Canadian waters. If Senate approved duties on fresh fish become law, the government would net around 2,500 weekly, raising prices for consumers. Critics argue the tax targets a basic food on a long free list and serves no urgent need. The Buffalo Courier questions Republican tariff reformers after Harrison support.
