Postmaster General subsidy debate roils press over mail contracts
The New York Tribune and Boston Journal skew public view as they attack the Postmaster-General for declining a 400,000 dollar subsidy to American steamship lines. The piece notes Congress authorized the payment, outlines competing routes, and argues that current sea and inland postage already adequately compensate carriers, undermining calls for further subsidies. It criticizes political maneuvering and highlights contrasting views on municipal leadership in Boston.
