The year 1873 Is almost upon Us. A lew more
dlurnal revolutions OF the earth and II Is here.
Before Its approach, custom and proprlcty de-
mand 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 cndcaVOr VIII be TO make The
GLOBE Of 1875 better than THE GLOBE of lSI4,
and the expression OF the hope that Il steady,
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, 50 that on the ast day Of December
our readers, one and all,.mUN say, as many II
not all OF them now do, II Is the best newspaper
In Vermont Further than THIS, we have now
no pledges or promises TO make. We arc no he
lever In that Kind OF bait. We know, as every
one knows, that promises, us General rule,
like pie crust, are made only to he broken. The
doing Is what we propose, ana 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 1t shall
be pelcspaper TO this end, one and ALL con-
nected with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
~ and without ceasing. The past prefgures
the future. and lust 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 VIII receive its due
share OF attention, and every occurrence,
whether OF minor or greater importance, Will
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 budt0 the full HOVER 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, DclleNc-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 a 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
state--in New England that can bear any com
parisOn to THE GLOBE.
While not dlstinctively an agricultural paper,
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting, in
structlve and indispensable to the farmer in his
special calliDgs. This we do by publishing the
latest and, confessedly, the fullest and most
perfect market reports, both dairy, provision
and stock, corrected up 10 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 thl. manner, as much farmer
reading" as any distlnctively 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, complete epitome OF the markets and
a full proportion of matter written and selected
with especial reference to their profession and
needs.
An 10 tIe eultOTial department IL WOulu 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 partisan,
that we can follow and defend any party
through the sloughs OF corruption and mis-
government neither can we advocate or re-
pudlate this or that measure because II Is the
creature or bantling OF certain individual,
party or administration. We believe the day
for that kind OF organs has passed-ther
bleached bones line the pathway OF journalism
and II any one expects that kind OF slavish
devotion on the part OF THE GLOBE they VIII be
mistaken. We shall only advocate and sustain
such measures as, In our Judgment, are right In
principle and VIII 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 criterlOns by which we shall
Judge OF 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-
celye prompt rebukc at our hands be he 4 DEM
0crat or Il republican.
The GLOBE IS now. as II has ever been, the
largest newspaper In Vermont, II not ia New
England-the largest in 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
