The year 1875 is almost upon us. A few more
diurnul revolutions OF the earth ana IL ~ mere.
Before Its approach, custom and proprlety de-
mand word from us In reference 10 TIE
GLOBE. We enter upon this new year. untram-
mcied 6y pledges or promises e Oh any klnd, save
that our constant endeavor VIII be TO make Tue
GLOBE of 1875 better than THE GLOBE OF 1874,
and the expression Of the hope that steady,
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the 9s day OF December
our readers, one and all,lmay say, as many II
not all OF them now do IL II the best newspaper
In Vermont. Further than TINS, 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: as General rule,
like 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 II shall
be n neicspaper. TO this end, one and all, con
nected with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
ly and without ceasing The past prefgures
the future, ana just now we feel called upon to
devote II large space to general news, reaching,
AS THE 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 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
| find its full and appropriate space In our col
pmns LIP this connection, too we can refer to
| tho 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 50
| hereafter we shall endeayor to keep our read
ers fully informed relative to all matters OF In
| terest transporting In the county and state, and
| tru5t-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 u 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 QtAer
newspapor--apd that Is published without the
| state-in New England that can bear any COM
| parison to THE GLOBE.
| While not distlnctively an agricultural paper.
we aim TO make TIE GLOBE interesting, In
structive and Indispensable TO the farmer In his
special oalliDas. 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 70 press by
| publishing articles treating of the farm and all
| Its products by original and selected articles
| furnishing, In this manner, as much "farmer'S
reading" rs any dlstnctlVely agricultural pa
| per In the state and more than any political
| newspaper In New England Farmers VIII con
suit their own Interests by subscribing, and
reading The GLOBE, containing MS It does, all
the news OF the day, discussions of current
| topics, n complete epitome OF the markets and
| u full proportion of matter written and selected
| with especial reference to their profession and
| needs.
AS to the editorial department 1t would III
| become US to speak-lt 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 Il partisan,
| that we can follow and defend any party
| through the SlOughS OF corruption and mis-
| government neither can we advocate or re-
pudate this or that measure because It IL the
| creature or Dantling OF certain individual,
| party or administration. We believe the day
| for that kind OF organs has passcd-their
bleached bones line the pathway OF journalism
| and II any one expects that kind OF slavlsh
devotion on the part Of THE GLOBE they will be
mistaken. We.shal) only advocate and sustain
| principle and VIII result In good TO the state
| and Union. All other measures We shall un.

| ocrat or u republican,
THE GLOBE Is now, as II has ever been. the
| largest newspaper In Vermont. II not In New
| England-thG srgest In actual size, the largest
| In the amount OF reading matter therein and
we, also, believe II to he 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
| 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.
