Schurz praised as an eloquent, prepared orator in Senate
Donn Pfatr’s letter to the Cincinnati Commercial extols Carl Schurz as a mastered, fearless speaker who did not read from notes and delivered a long stream of facts and sarcasm. He contrasts Schurz with the President’s war power move and notes about 7,000 Masonic Lodges and 600,000 members in the United States today.
