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 a steady.
constant improvement may continue through
the year, so that on the 3lSt day OF December
our readers, one and al,lmay say, as many II
not all OF them now do, IL Is the best newspaper
in Vermont. Further than TINS, we have now
no pledges or promises TO make. We are no be-
liever In that Kind OF bait. We know, as every
one knows, that promises, as q general rule,
like pie crust, are made only TO be broken. The
doing is what we propose, ana 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 q 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 prehgures
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 win be
by no means neglected.
The local department Will receive It's due
share Of attention, and every occurrence,
whether Of minor or greater Importance, VIII
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
rrs fully informed relative to all matters OF In
terest TRANSPORTING in the county and state, and
triist-as we, also, believe-that the close or the
coming year Will enable us truthfully to say, rs
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 dstinctively an agricultural paper,
we aim to make THE GLOBE interesting in
structive and indispensable to the farmer In his
| special caliDgs. This we do by publishing the
latest and, confessedy, 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
| 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 1t does, all
| the news Of the day, discussions OF current
| topics, 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 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 a 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 certain individual,
party or administration We believe the day
| for that XIII 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.shal) 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
| hestatingly oppose, no matter by whom pro-
| posed or by whom endorsed. The truth and
J 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 1t 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 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
| Mountains.
