The year 1875 Is almost upon us. few more
dlurnal revolutions OF the earth and IL Is here.
Before Its approach, custom and proprlety de.
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 steady,
constant improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the 8ist day OF December
our readers one and alsmay say, as many II
not all OF them now do, II 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, 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 or the future.
Our first idea OF q newspaper Is that 1t shall
be TO this END one and ALL con
~ and without ceaslng. The past prefgures
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 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 will
find 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
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 transpirng In the county and state, and
rust--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 greater
variety OF topics, than any other newspaper In
fha utata aud In xrHt
not surpass, we hope to equal the only othef
newspaper-and that is published without the
state-in New England that can bear any com.
parison to THE GLOBE.
While not distinctvely an agricultural paper,
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting, In
structive and Indispensable to the farmer in his
special calliDgs. 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 to 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 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 It does, all
the news of the day, discussions of current
topics, a complete epitome OF the markets and
"a full proportion OF matter written and selected
with especial reference to their profession and
needs.
As to the editorial department It would i'll
become us 10 Speak-lt must speak Tor 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 a certain individual,
party or administration. We believe the day
for that kind or organs has passed-their
bleached bones line the pathway of Journalism
and II any one expects that kind of slavsh
devotion on the part OF THE GLOBE they Will be
mistaken. Weshal) 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 I'M
hestatngly oppose, no matter by whom pro-
posed or by whom endorsed. The truth and
/ ght an6 the best interests of our common
country are the criterions by which we shall
judge OF the acts and propositions OF public
inen-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.
ocrat or a republican.
THE GLOBE Is now, as II has ever been, the
largest newspaper In Vermont, If not In New
England-the largest In actual size, the largest
In the amount or reading matter therein and
we, also, believe IL 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
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
