The year 1875 Is almost upon us. A few more
dlurnal revolutions OF the earth and 1t is here.
Before Its approach, custom and propriety de-
mand q word from us In reference TO THE
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 1873 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 3lst day OF December
our readers, one and all,lmay 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-
llever 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 &C.
cept OF the past as an earnest OF the future.
our first idea OF newspaper Is that IL shall
be n newspaper To this end, one and all, con-
nected with THE GLOBE, have laborcd earnest
ly 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 VIII 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
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 OF the
coming year will enable us truthfuly to say, as
we can OF 1874, that we have given fuller and
and more complete reports OF state and local
news, embracing larger Held 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 Othe
newspaper-and that is published without the
state-in New England that can bear any COM
parison to THE GLOBE.
we aim TO make THE GLOBE interesting, In
structive and Indispensable TO the farmer In his
special calllngs. 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 us 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
topics, complete epitOme or 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 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 II is the
creature or bantling OF certain individual,
party or administration. We believe the day
for that kind Of organs has passed-thetr
bleached bones line the pathway OF journalism
and II any one expects that kind or slavish
devotion on the part OF THE GLOBE they Will be
mistaken. We shall only advocate and suStai
such measures as, In our Judgment, are right
principle and Will result In good TO the St,
and Union. All other measures we Shall ~
hesitatingly oppose, no matter by whom 80
ronod or ~ whom nndoreed. The truth an.
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 u DEM
ocrat or republican.
THE GLOBE Is now, as II 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 ana
we, also, believe 1t to be the largest In circula
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 newSyi newspaper west OF the Green
Mountains.
