The New Yorker ass we know it wasn't founded by Horace Greeley, although maybe he founded some other paper with that name. This link to New Yorker is to a really stubby stub. The New Yorker article is no prize either. Ortolan88

It was just a paper, not a magazine. If it was no relation to the current New Yorker, best just to leave it out rather than try and disambiguate it, I guess. -- Someone else 06:21 Jan 20, 2003 (UTC)

It should perhaps be mentioned that the town of Greeley Colorado was named after Horace Greeley. As I understand it, somebody took his advice of going west and founded a town on the ideal.

New Hampshire?

This article shouldn't be under WP:NH because he is more of a New Yorker than a New Hampshirite. --EvaGears 16:39, 6 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

He was born and raised and went to school in NH and has a historic site for him in NH, although he probably should have the WP:NY tag as well. Cooljeanius 13:46, 8 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Horace Greeley

What is Horace Greeley's role during the Gilded age? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.233.101.210 (talk) 03:22, 24 January 2007 (UTC).[reply]

The town of Greeley, PA is also named after Horace Greeley. He was an investor in a Utopia type project in the mid-1800s called The Sylvannia Association. There is a somewhat inaccurate historical marker placed in Greeley explaining the story of the commune. After the project failed, the area supposedly became known as "that Greeley place" and the later town became known as Greeley.204.186.88.252 13:56, 20 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Greely

he didn't break with the radicals. The liberal GOP was radical. The regular GOP was moderate conservative

Hjalmar Schacht

"The full name of Nazi economist Hjalmar Schacht was "Hjalmar Horace Greeley Schacht"."

This phrase eludes me. Like several readers who are looking for something else, I caught this phrase in an unordered list on the page. Not having the time to research deep enough into this issue, I simply remain with the feeling "Horace was connected with the Nazis"(, which I personally assume and thoroughly hope to be wrong).

So, please, have somebody either discredit and remove the statement, or else put a footnote at the end so that we may read the justification. Thank you.
