The year 1873 IS almost upon US. few more |
durnal revolutions Of the earth and IL Is here. |
Before It's approach, custom and prOprlety de- |
mand n word from us in reference to THE |
GLOBE We enter upon this new year untram-
mced by pledges or promises of any kind, save |
that which may be implied from the statement
that our constant cndeavor Will be to make THE
GLOBE OF 1875 better than THE GLOBE of 1sIi
and the expression of the hope that n steady.
constant improvement may continue through
the year, 50 that on the 3lst day of December
oar readers, one and all, may say, as many II
not all Of them now do, It is the best newspaper
In Vermont. Further than this, we have now
no pledges or promises to make. We are no be-
lever in that kind of bait. We know, as every
one knows, that PROMISES as a general rule,
| like pie crust, are made only to be broken The
/ doing is what we propose, and that can be as
well accomplished without as with promises.
We point with pride to THE GLOBE Of the past,
and can only ask our patrons and readers to ac
cept of the past as an earnest Of the future.
our first idea of newspaper is that It shall
be a newspaper. To this end one and all, con-
nectcd with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
~ and without ceaslng. The past prengures
the future, and just now we feel called upon TO
devote a large space to general news, reaching,
as THE GLOBE docs our readers from eight TO
! twenty-four hours In advance of the newspapers
of Boston or New York. While we do and shall
continue to devote much of our space to this
department Of news, other departments Will he
by no means neglected.
The local department Will receive It's due
share Of attention, and every occurrence,
whether of minor or greater Importance. will
find It's full and appropriate space in our col
umns. In this connection, too, we can refer 30
the rast rs showing what we expect hereafter
to do, only we trust that that may be but as
the bud to the full Hover. AS heretofore, so
hereafter we shall cndeavor to keep our read
ers fully informed relative to all matters OF In
terest ,ranspiring in the county and state, and
truSt-as we, also, belleve-that the close OF the
coming year VIII enable us truthfully to say, as
we can of 1874, that we have given fuller and
and more complete reports OF state and local
news embracing larger field and greater
variety of topics, than any other newspaper In
the state, and In this respect. while we may
not surpass, we hope to equal the only other
newspaper-and that is published without the
statc--in New England that can bear any COM
parlsOn to TIE GLOBE.
, While not distinctively an agricultural paper,
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting In
structiye and indispensable to the farmer in his
latest and, confesscdly, the fullest and most

, and stock, corrected up to the close Of business

q Its products by original and selected articles

p reading" as any dlstinctively agricultural pa
p per in the state, aud more than any political
