The year 1875 is almost upon us. A few more
diurnal revolutions OF the earth and IL Is here.
Before It's approach custom and proprlety de-
inand word from us In reference to THE
GLOBE. We enter upon this new year ,untram-
mcled by pledges or promises OF any kind, save
that which may be Implied from the statement
that our constant endeayUr Will be TO make The
GLOBE OF 1875 better than THE GLOBE OF 1914,
and the expression OF the hope that steady.
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the 8lst day OF December
our readers, one and al,imay say, as many II
not all OF them now do, lt 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 general rule,
| like pie crust, are made only to be broken. The
| doing is what we propose, and that can be as
wei accomplished without as with promises.
We point with pride to THE GLOBE of the past,
ana can only ask our patrons and readers to ac-
cept or the past as an earnest or the future.
our first idea OF a newspaper is that 1t shall
be newspaper. TO this end, one and all, con
nected with The GLOBE, have labored earnest
| ~ and without ceasng. The past prefigures
the future, and just now we feel called upon to
devote a large space to general news, reaching,
as THE GLOBE does, 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 be
| by no means neglected.
| rhe local department will receive It's due
| share OF attention, and every occurrence,
| whether OF minor or greater Importance, Will
| llnd It's full and appropriate space In our col
| ullIHS Ill lllS connexions, 100, we can TeTer 10
| the. past MS showing what we expect hereafter
| to do, only we trust that that may be but as
| the budto the full flower. AS heretofore, so
| hereafter we shall endeavOr TO keep our read
ers fully informed relative to all matters OF in
| terest Transporting In the county and state, and
trust-as we, also, believe-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 a 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
state-in New England that can bear any com.
| parlsOn to THE GLOBE.
While not distinctively an agricultural paper.
| we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting, in
structive and Indispensable to the farmer In his
! special calliDgs. This we do by publishing the
latest and, confessedy, 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 by
publishing articles treating OF the farm and all
| It's products by original and selected articles ;
| furnishing, In this manner, as much "farmer's
reading" as any distnctively agricultural pa
| 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 a complete epitome OF 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 ana 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 slOughs OF corruption and mis-
| government neither can we advocate or re-
pudate this or that measure because 1t is the
| creature or bantl1ng or a certain individual,
party or administration. We believe the day
| for that kind OF organs has paSSed-their
| beached 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.shal) only advocate and sustain
| principle and VIII result in good to the state
and Union. All other measures we shall un-
hesitatingly oppose, matter by whom pro-
posed or by whom endorsed. The truth and
right and the best interests OF our common
country are the criteriOns by which we shall
Judge OF the acts and propositions OF public
men-and we believe these 10 be the corner
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 rebukc at our hands be he DEM
ocrat or n republican.
THE GLOBE Is now. as 1t has ever been, the
largest newspaper In Vermont, II not In New
England-the largest I'm actual size, the largest
In the amount OF reading matter therein and
we, also, believe 1t to be the largest in crcula-
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.
