The year 1875 il almost upon us. A few more
durna1 revolutions OF the earth and 1t Is here.
Before Its approach, custom and propriety de-
mand q word from us in reference to THE
globe. we enter upon this new year untram-
mcied by pledges or promises of any kind, save
that which may be implied from the statement
that our constant endeavor VIII be TO make THE
GLOBE OF 1875 better than THE GLOBE OF 1874,
and the expression OF the hope that a steady.
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the DIST day OF December
our readers, one and alltmay say, as many IL
not all OF them now do, it IL the best newspaper
In Vermont. Further than this, we have now
no pledges or premises 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
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 a newspaper Is that II shall
be q newspaper. TO this end, one and ALL con-
nected with The GLOBE, have labored earnest
ly and without ceasiDg. The past prergures
the future, and Just now we feel called upon to
devote 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.
The local department will receive It's due
share OF attention, and every occurrence,
whether OF minor or greater Importance, VIII
umns. In this connection, too, we can refer to
the past as showing what we expect hereafter
to do, only we trust that that may be but as
the bud to 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
coming year will enable us truthfully to say, as
we can OF 1874 that we have given fuller and
asa more o%Re e se ana
variety OF topics, than any other newspaper In
the state and IN this respect while we may
new tSp is pubsbed without the
state-in New England that can bear any com.
parisOn 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
perfect t market reports, both dairy provision
and stock, corrected up to the close Of business
hours the evening before going 70 press 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 viii 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
a full proportion Of matter written and selected
with especial reference to their profession and
needs.
AS to the editorial department 1t would i'll
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 oil q partisan,
that we can follow and defend any party
through the slOughs OF corruption and mis-
government neither can we advocate or re-
pudiate this or that measure because 1t is the
creature or bantling OF 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 or slaviSh
| devotion on the part OF THE GLOBE they will be
mistaken. We.shaD only advocate and sustain
such measures as, In our judgment, are right in
| principle and will result In good TO the state
| and Union. All other measures we shall un.
| 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
judge or the acts and propositions OF public
men-and we believe these TO 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
| ocrat or a 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 ant
we, also, believe 1t to be the largest in circula
| ton OF any newspaper in western Vermont, anC
| 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 ncwsy newspaper west OF the Green
Mountains.
