The year 1875 is almost upon us. few more
diurnal revolutions OF the earth and 1t Is here.
Before Its approach, custom and propriety de-
mand a word from us In reference to THE
GLOBE. We enter upon this new yeartuntram-
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 1874,
and the expression of the hope that steady,
constant Improvement may continue through
the year. 50 that on the 3St day of December
our readers one and all,imay say, as many If
not all of them now do, 1t 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 OF the future.
our first idea OF a 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 preflgures
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 viii receive Its due
share OF attention, and every occurrence,
whether of minor or greater Importance, VIII
find its full and appropriate space In our col
the past as showing what we expect hereafter
to do, only we trust that that may be but as
the bud to the full Hover. AS heretofore, SO
hereafter we shall endeavor to keep our read
erS fully informed relative to all matters OF in
terest transpirlng 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
and more complete reports OF state and local
news, embracing larger field and 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 other
newspaper--and that is published without the
state-in New England that can bear any COM
parisOn to THE GLOBE.
While not distnctively an agricultural paper,
we ain to make THE GLOBE interesting, IN
structlve and indispensable to the farmer in his
special callngs. This we do by publishing the
latest and eonfessedly, 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 dlstinctvely agricultural pal
per in the state, and more than any poltica-
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 eptome 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 1t would Ill
become US to speak-it must speak for itself.
| we propose, however, to sustain ana 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 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 Shall only advocate and sustain
such measures as, in our Judgment, are right in
| principle and viii result in good TO the state
| hesitatingly 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
mens-and believe these 10 be the corner
| STOKES on which the fabric of the republican
| party was erected, and he who lays violent
| hands on these precious corner stones viii re-
| ceiye prompt rebuke at our hands be he q DEM
| ocrat or republican.
| THE GLOBE is now, as it has ever been, the
| largest newspaper in Vermont, II not in New
| England-the largest in actual size, the largest
| in the amount OF reading matter therein ana
we also, believe IL to be the largest in circula-
| ton of any newspaper in western Vermont, and
| is, therefore, the best advertising medium Iii
| 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
