The year 1878 is almost upon w. A few more
diurnal revolutions OF the earth and It is here.
Before Its approach, custom and propriety de-
mnnd o word from us In reference to I lie
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 endeavOr Will be 10 make The
GLOBE Of 1875 better than THE GLOBE OF 1874,
and the expression of the hope that n steady.
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, 50 that on the 3ist day OF December
our readers, one and all,;may say, as many II
not all OF them now do, IL Is the best newspaper
in Vermont.4 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 MS a general rule,
Ike 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 a newspaper Is that 1t shall
be a newspaper. TO this end one and all, con-
nccted with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
ly and without ceasing. The past preflgures
the future, and Just now we feel called upon to
devote large space to general news, reaching,
MS THE GL0Bs 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 its due
share Of attention, and every occurrence,
| whether of minor or greater Importance, VIII
| iind It's full and appropriate space In our col
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 endeayOr TO keen our read
| rr3 fully informed relative to all matters OF In
| terest lransplrlng In the county and state, and
| trust-as we, also, beleve-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 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-and that Is published without the
parisOn to TIE GLOBE.
While not distinctlvely 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, cpnfessedly, the fullest and most
perfect market reports, both dairy, provision
and Stock corrected up to tho close OF business
hours the evening before going 70 press by
publishing articles treating OF the farm and al
It's products by original and selected articles
furnishing, IN this manner, as much farmer:
readiug' rs any distlnctlyely agricultural pa
per In the state, and more than any political
newspaper in New England. Farmers Will con
suit their own interests by subscribing, ant
reading THE GLOBE, containing as 1t does, al
the news OF the day, discussions OF curren
|
u iull proportion Of matter written and selected
with especial reference to their profession ant
needs.
As to the editorial department 1t would Il
| become us to speak-it must speak for itself
| We propose, however, to sustain and advocat
republican opinions and principles as we under
| stand tncm. we are not so lnuch oil partisan
That we can follow and defend any part,
through the sloughs OF corruption and mis-
! government neither can we advocate or re
pudlate This or That measure because IL Is tn
creature or bantlin! OF a certain individual
party or administration. We believe the da
Tor that Kind OF organs has passed-thei
bleached bones line the pathway OF Journalism
land If any one expects that kind OF slavis
devotion on the part of THE GLOBE they Will b
mistaken. We.shaD only advocate and suStai
such measures MS, In our judgment, are right 1
principle and VIII result In good to the stat
and Union. All other measures we shall III
hestatngly oppose, no matter by whom pre-
posed or by whom endorsed. The truth an
right and tho best interests OF our commo
country are the criteronS by which we sha
Judge OF the acts and propositions OF publ
men--and we believe these to be the cOrn(
stones on which the fabric OF the republlca
hands on these precious corner stones will r.
Celve prompt rcDukc at our hands be he q den
ocrat or u republican.
THE GLOBE is now, as IL has ever been, III
| largest newspaper in Vermont, If not in Ne
! England-the largest In actual size, the larges
. in the amount of reading matter therein an
we, also, believe 1t to be the largest in circuit
tlOn OF any newspaper In western Vermont, an
L | is, therefore, the best advertising medium
this part Of New England
In conclusion, we would suggest that now
. the time to subscribe for and advertise in III
y, and most nowsy. newspaper west of the Gree
i | Mountains.
