The year 1875 is almost upon us. A few more
dlurnal revolutions Of the earth and It is here.
Before It's approach, custom and propriety de-
mand word from us In reference to THR
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 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,!may say, as many II
not all OF them now do, IL 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.
ike 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 nc.
cept of the past as an earnest or the future.
Our first idea of q newspaper is that IL shall
be nepspaper. 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 Will 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
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 Transporting In the county and state, and
trust-as we, also, believe-that the close or the
coming year VIII 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 dstnctively an agricultural paper,
we aim TO make THE GLOBE interesting, in
structive and Indispensable TO the farmer In his
special callngs. 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, asmuch farmer
reading" as any diStinctiyely agricultural pal
per In the state, and more than any politica-
newspaper in New England. Farmers Will con.
suit their own interests by subscribing, and
reading THE GLOBE, containing as II does, all
the news of the day, discussions of current
topics, a 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 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 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 If 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 I'M
hesitatingly oppose, no matter by whOrI pro-
posed or by whom endorsed. The truth and
right and tho best Interests or our common
country are the crterions by which we shall
judge OF the acts and propositions OF public
men-and we believe these 10 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 lie a DEM
ocrat or q 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 ana
we, also, believe It to be the largest in crcula-
tion 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.
