Horace Greedy.

This gentleman boasts of having i50. :
900 subscribers to his Weekly Tribune,

subscriber, he is doing good business

in the west. are the Postmasters in cities,
towns and country. They Have net only
been in the habit Of volunteering their ef-
forts to get up clubs for the Tribune, but
have been acting as mailing clerks for Sir
Horace, saving him thousands Of dollars
clerk hire per year.
Mr.. Greedy. in order to cut under and
break down the Western Press, puts club
bing terms down 81 low As not to take into
account the expense of writing subscribers
names upon their respective papers. leaving
this for The Postmastsfs to do, wEc so
kindly hsve sent him his subscribers, and
who be knows have got to write said names
before they can properly deliver said papers.
IL this way be steals vast amount Of gra.
tuitous service from Western Postmastefs,

of asking.
Now. all we have to say to Western
Postmasters. is, that If they owe any su;h

other mammoth monopoly establishment,

charge their obligations to him in this way
but II they are really western meu, and de.

tanning western men and western institu.

20 no farther in their favoritiSm for eastern
publications than to fully and f.iriy dis
