The year 1876 is almost upon us. few more
diurnal revolutions OF the earth and II Is here.
Before Its approach, custom and proprety 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 endeavor VIII be TO make The
and the expression OF the hope that n steady.
constant improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the 3lst day OF December
our readers one aud all,may 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 to make. We are no be-
liever In that kind of bait. We know, as every
one knows, that promises, us general rule,
like pie crust, are made only TO be 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 &C.
cept Of the past as an earnest or the future.
our first idea OF q newspaper Is that IL shall
be a newspaper. TO this end, one and all, con-
nected with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
ly and without ceasing. The past prefigures
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 10
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 or news other departments VIII be
by no means neglected.
The local department will receive Its due
Share OF attention, and every occurrence,
whether OF minor or greater importance, Will
lind Its full and appropriate space In our col
umns. In this connection, too, we can refer to
the past as showing what we expect hereafter
10 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, believe-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 a greater
variety OF topics THAI any other newspaper in
xpl.t Ito xunv
not surpass, we hope to equal the only othe Z
newspaper-and that is published without the
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 caiIIngs. This we do by publishing the
latest and, c0nfessedly, the fullest and most
perfect market reports, both dairy, provision
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'-
reading" as any distinctively 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 epltome OF the markets and
| with especial reference to their profession and
| needs.
AS to the editorial department It would III
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 a 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 II Is the
| creature or bantling OF q 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 OF 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-
hestatingiy oppose, no matter by whom pro.
| right and tho best interests OF our common
country are the criterons by which we shall
4 Judge of the acts and prop6sfYens 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.
| ceive prompt rebuke at our hands be he n DEM
Ocrat or a republican.
| The GLOBE is now, as IL has ever been, the
| largest newspaper I'm 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 circula-
ton or any newspaper In western Vermont, and
| IL, 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.
