The year 1876 is almost upon us. A few more
dlurnal revolutions OF the earth and II Is here.
Before Its approach, custom and proprlety 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 endeayor Will be TO make The
GLOBE of 1875 better than THE GIoBR OF lsj4
and the expression OF the hope that a steady,
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, 50 that on the 9ist day of December
oSf Of nam AND o aa a say as many Il
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, as a 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 TUE GLOBE ofihe past
and can only ask our patrons and readers to ac.
copt OF the past as an earnest OF the future.
be Sa Ss sS on Is a
nected with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest.
" and without ceasing. The past prefigures
the future, ana 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 ne wspapers
or 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, Will
nnd 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
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, helleye-that the close OF the
coming year Will enable us truthfuiy 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 greater
varlnty fnnpg a MOI ur,at, tn,
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.
parls0n to THE GLOBE.
While not distinctively an agricultural paper.
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting, In
latest and, c5nfessedly, the fullest and most
and stock, corrected up to the close Of business
hours the evening before going to press by
publishing articles treating of the farm and all
furnishing, In this manner, as much farmers
reading" as any distinctlvely agricultural pa
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 nowa OF the day, discussions OF current
topics, complete epitome or the markets and
full proportion of matter written and selected
needs.
40 W thc cultOTlul 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-
pudiate this or that measure because IL is the
creature or bantling OF Il 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.shal) only advocate and sustain
such measures as, In our Judgment, are right In
and Union. All other measures we shall un.
hesltatingly oppose, no matter BY whom pro-
posed or by whom endorsed. The truth and
right and the best interests OF our common
country are the crIterlOnS by which we shall
Judge OF the acts and propositions OF public
s1men-and we believe these TO be the corner
Stones On which the fabric III the republican
party was erected, and he who lays violent
hands on these precious corner stones Will re-
celve prompt rebuke at our hands be he n DEM
ocrat or republican.
The GLOBE Is now, as II has ever been, the
largest newspaper In Vermont, II not In New
Engand-the largest In actual size, the largest
In the amount OF reading matter therein and
We also, believe IL to be the largest In clrcula-
ton OF any newspaper In western Vermont, and
Is, therefore, the best advertising medium In
this part OF New England.
In cOnclusQn, 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.
