Theyear 1875 is almost upon us. A few more
dlurnn revolutions OF the earth and It is here.
Befor' It's approach, custom and prOprety de-
mand word from us In reference to THE
GLoB. We enter upon this new year. untram-
mcledby pledges or promises OF any kind, save
that Which may be implied from the statement
that or constant endeayor Will be TO make THE
GL0BtOf 1870 better than TIE GLOBE OF 1874,
and tie expression OF the hope that steady,
constant Improvement may continue through
the var, so that on the 3st day OF December
our readers, one and al, lnay say, as many II
not al OF them now do, II is the best newspaper
In Vemont Further than this, we have now
no pldges or promises to make. We are no be-
lieveIin that Kind of bait. We know, as every
one lnows, that promises, as a general rule,
like te crust, are made only to be broken. The
doinl Is what we propose, and that can be as
welltccomplished without as with promises.
We pint with pride to THE GLOBE OF the past,
and an only ask our patrons and readers to ac-
ceptf the past as an earnest OF the future.
be a,esspa ,pe TO this end. one and ALL con.
nectd with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
ly an without ceasing. The past prengures
the lture. and Just now we ieel called upon 10
as TIE GLOBE does, our readers from eight to
twety-four hours in advance OF the newspapers
OF Bston or New York. While we do and shall
conmue to devote much OF our space to this
deprtment OF news other departments Will be
by u means neglected.

wheher Of minor or greater Importance, VIII

umB In this connection, too, we can refer to
the INST as showing what we expect hereafter
to d, only we trust that that may be but as
the jud TO the full flower. AS heretofore, so
hereafter we shall endeavor to keep our read
ers lilly informed relative to all matters OF In
teret TRANSPORTING In the county and state, and
trus,-as we, also, beieve-that the close OF the
coming year Will 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 Held 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 that Is published without the
state-in New England that can bear any COM
While not distinctively an agricultural paper,
we aim TO make THE GLOBE interesting, In
structive and Indispensable to the farmer In his
special calllDgs This we do by publishing the
latest and, confessedly, the fullest and most
perfect market reports, both dairy, provision
and stock, corrected up to the close Of business
hours the evening before going TO press a; by
publishing articles treating OF the farm and all
Its products; by original and selected articles
furnishing, In this manner, as much "farmer'-
reading" as any distinctively agricultural pal
per In the state, and more than any political
newspaper In New England. Farmers Will con
suit their own interests by subscribing, and
reading THE GLOBE, containing as 1t does, all
the news OF the day, discussions OF current
topics, q complete epitome or the markets and
full proportion OF matter written and selected
with especial reference to their profession and
needs.
AS to the editorial department 1t would Ill
become US to speak-it must speak for itself.
We propose, however, to sustain and advocate
republican opinions and principles as we under
stand them. We are not so much OF q partisan,
that we can follow and defend any party
through the sl0ughS OF corruption and mis-
government; neither can we advocate or re-
pudiate this or that measure because II is the
creature or bantling OF a certain individual,
party or administration. We believe the day
for that kind OF organs has passed-their
bleached bones line the pathway OF journalism
and II any one expects that kind OF slavish
devotion on the part OF THE GLOBE they Will be
mistaken. We:shall only advocate and sustain
such measures rs, in our judgment, are right In
principle and Will result in good to the state
and Union. All other measures we shall I'M
hesitatingly oppose, no matter by whom pro-
posed or by whom endorsed. The truth and
right and tho best Interests OF our common
country are the criterions by which we shall
s aasse we believe these 70 be The cofRee2
stones on which the fabric OF the republican
party was erected, and he who lays violent
hands on these precious corner stones Will re-
ceive prompt rebuke at our hands be he DEM
0crat or a republican.
THE GLOBE Is now, as II has ever been, the
largest newspaper In Vermont, II not In New
England-the largest In actual Size the largest
In the amount OF reading matter therein and
we, also, believe It to be the largest In circula.
ton OF any newspaper In western Vermont, and
Is, therefore, the best advertising medium In
this part OF New England.
In conclusion, we would suggest that now Is
the time to subscribe for and advertise In the
DAILY or WEEKLY GLOBE, the largest, best
and most newsy newspaper west OF the Green
Mountains.
