The year 1875 is almost upon us. A few more
dlurnal revolutions OF the earth and II Is here
BEFORE It's approach, custom and prOprlety de-
mand word rom us In reference to THE
GLOBE. We enter upon this new veal. untram-
mcied Dy 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 a steady,
constant Improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the 3lst day OF December
our readers, one and all,tmay say, as many II
not all OF them now do, it 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 one knows, that promises, as q General rule,
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.
eept OF the past as an earnest OF the future
our nrSt Idea OF newspaper Is that II shall
be newspaper. 10 this end, one and all, con-
nected with THE GLOBE, have labored earnest
~ and without ceasing. 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 10
twenty-f0ur 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.
.'rhe local department will receive It's due
share OF attention, and every occurrence,
whether OF minor or greater Importance, Will
ma us Iull ana 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 transpring In the county and state, and
trust-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 n greater
variety of topics, than any other newspaper in
the state, and. In this reSDpct. while
not surpass, we hope to equal the only othe :
Dewspaper-and that Is published without the
state-in New England that can bear any COM
parison to THE GLOBE.
While not dstinctlvely an agricultural paper,
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting, in
structlye and indispensable to the farmer In his
special calliDg5. 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
It's products. by original and selected articles
furnishing In this manner, as much "farmer-
reading" as any distnctively agricultural pal
per In the state, and more than any political
newspaper in New England. Farmers win 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, complete epitome 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 oil O partisan,
that we can follow and defend any party
through the slOughS of corruption and mis-
government; neither can we advocate or re-
pud1ate this or that measure because II is the
creature or bantling OF certain individual,
party or administration. We believe the day
Tor that kind of organs has pasSed-their
Dleached 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 Will result In good to the state
and Union. All other measures we shall un-
hesitatingly oppose, no matter by whom pro-
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
stones on which the fabric of the republican
party was erected, and he who lays violent
hands on these precious corner stones will re.
ceive prompt rebuke at our hands be he DEM
ocrat or republican.
The GLOBE Is now, as IL 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 and
we, Also believe 1t 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
anu most newsyi newspaper west or the Green
Mountains.
