The year 1875 is almost upon us. few more
dlurnal revolutions OF the earth and II is here.
Before Its approach, custom and propriety 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 will be TO make The
GLOBE OF 1875 better than THE GLOBE OF 1914,
and the expression OF the hope that Il steady.
constant Improvement may continue through
the year. so that on the sist day OF December
our readers, one aud al, tmay 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-
lever In that Kind OF bait. We know, as every
one knows, that promises, us II 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 Tue GLOBE OF the past
and can only ask our patrons and readers TO ac-
ccpt OF the past as AN earnest or the future
our first idea Of a newspaper is that II shall
be u newspaper. 10 this end one and all, con
" and without ceasng. The past prefgures
the future, ana Just now we feel called upon to
devote II large space 10 general news. reaching,
as The GLOBE does, our readers from eight to
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, will
umns, In this connection, too, we can refer to
the past as showing what we expect hereafter
the bud to the full hover. Ks 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 beleve-that the close OF the
coming year Will enable US truthfully to say, as
we can OF 1874. that we have given fuller and
news, embracing larger field and a greater
variety OF topics, than any other newspaper in
the state, and, In this respect. while we may
newspaper-and that is published without the
state-in New England that can bear any com.
parison to THE globe.
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting, in
structlye and Indispensable to the farmer In his
special callings: This we do by publishing the
perfect market reports, both dairy provision
and stock, corrected up to the close OF business
hours the evening before going TO press by
Its products; by original and selected articles
furnishing, In this manner, as much "farmer'-
reading" as any distinctively agricultural pal
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 a complete epltome OF 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 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 1t is the
creature or bantling OF O 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.shalJ only advocate and sustain
such measures as In our judgment, are right In
principle and will result in good to the state
and Union. ALI other measures we shall un.
Eesitatingly 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 criteriOns by which we shall
Judge OF the acts and propositions OF public
men-and we believe these to be the corner
STOKES on which the fabric OF the republican
hands on these precious corner stones Will re.
ceive prompt rebuke at our hands be he a DEM
0crat or a republican.
THE GLOBE Is now, as II has ever been, the
largest newspaper In Vermont. II not In New
England-the largest in actual size, the largest
In the amount or reading matter therein and
we. also, believe It TO be the largest In crcula-
tlon 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
Mountains.
