Say you have three voices on one staff, as in the first bars (left hand), of the Goldbergs (see link to scan below). Assuming the upper voice has all its stems upwards, the lower voice all stems downwards, what is the rule for the middle part?

(By the way, shouldn't the rests in these bars be horizontally aligned?)

Thanks,

I believe the standard treatment for a third voice is to jave it offset a bit to the right of the other voices, which is true of the example for beat 2. I think the rests are not aligned because the first one represents the upper and the middle voice and the second one represents only the upper voice.
