The year 1870 Is almost upon us. few more

mand a word from US In reference TO TIE
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 TO make THE
GLOBE OF 1875 better than THE GLOBE OF 1914,
and the expression OF the hope that a steady.
the year, SO that on the 3lst day OF December
our readers, one and all,fmay say, as many II
not all OF them now do, IL is the best newspaper
In Vermont. Further than this, we have now
no pledges or promises 10 make. We are no be-
lever In that Kind OF bait. we know, as every
one knows, that promises, MS II general rule.
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 newspaper. TO this end, one and all, con-
nected with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
ly and without ceasng. The past prefigureS
the future and just now we ieel called upon to
devote large space to general news. reaching,
as TnR 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 Its due
share of attention, and every occurrence,
whether OF minor or greater Importance, VIII
unDs. 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
trust--as we, also, belleve-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 field and n 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 othe
newSpaper-and that Is published 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
structlve 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 10 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 dlstinctlvely 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 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 oil 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-ther
bleached bones line the pathway Of journalism
and If any one expects that kind of savlsh
devotion on the part OF THE GLOBE they Will be
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
r.ss,.s tssss.
country are the criterions by which VIC shall
Judge OF the acts and propositions Of public
stones on which the fabric OF the republican
party was erected, ana he who lays violent
hands on these precious corner stones Will re-
ceive prompt rebukc at our hands be he dem
ocrat or a republican.
THE GLOBE Is now, as II has ever been, the
largest newspaper in Vermont, IL not in New
England-the largest in actual size, the largest
In the amount OF reading matter therein anC
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
DAILY or WEEKLY GLOBE, the largest, bes
and most newsy. newspaper west OF the Greer
Mountains.
