4 4 Annuity Plan " Sale 2 Post offices preferable to Stamp Offices more so than the Stamp Offices [1]
It may be asked - why not the local Stamp Offices? - (Offices and other shops at which stamps are sold on
account of Government)
So then it is answered - Doubtless these might be made do - as any sort of shop
might be made to do, if about the Master is possessed
of a certain measure of pecuniary responsibility
and able to read & write legibly.
But, except the circumstances of being already
in the employ of government, those stamp
shops have no one point to recommend them
no analogy between the quortum carried on in
the one case and those requisite to be carried on
in the other - as such habits established in the
one case, as are particularly suitable to the business
proposed to be carried on in the other.
The distributer of stamps sells a piece of
stampt paper as he would a quantity of unstampt
paper - he receives the price from the
individual purchaser - and accounts for it to Government.
But all that is ever to be done to
the paper is ready done to his hands. He
makes no entry on it - he puts no stamp is
put to it by him. The Master of a Post Office
especially a Penny Post Office is in the habit
of making entries by applying stamps. This
