THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day during the
year to come. Its purpose and method will be the
same as in the past: To present all the news in q
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
THE SUN has been. is, and will continue to be
independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and its own convictions of duty. That
is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. Tint is the policy which has won for
this newspaper the confidence and friendship of a
wider constituency than was ever enjoyed by any
other American journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the people. II is
not for the rich man against the poor man, or for
the poor man against the rich man. but it seeks to
do equal justice to all interests in the community.
1t is not the organ Of any person. class. sect or
party There need be no mystery about its loves
and hates. 1t is for the honest man against the
rogues every time. 1t is Tor the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and for the
honest Republican against the dishonest Demo-
crat II does not take its cue from the utterances
of any politician political organization 1t gives
its support unlesCrvedly when men and measures
are in agreement with the Consti ution and with
the principles upon which the Republic WAS
founded for the people. Whenever the Constitu-
tion and constitutional principles are violnt?das
in the outrag Gus conspiracy Of 1876. by VIII ch a
man not elected was placed i'll the Presd Hlt's Of
flee, where he still remansit speaks out for the
right. That is THE SUMS idea OF Independence.
In this respect there Will be no change IN Its pro-
gramme for 1879
THE sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred of

sizes III hopes uCScfNt udIGcu llDI less III
the year 1879, than in 1875 1877 or any year gone
by. THE sun will continue to shine on the wicked
with unmitigated brightness.
While the lessons OF The past should be constant
ly kept before the people, THE SUN does not pro-
pose to make itself in 1879 magazine of ancient
history. 1t is printed for the men and women of
to-day, whose concern is chiefly with the affairs Of
to-day. II has both the disposition and the abil-
ity to afford its readers the promptest, fullest and
II oSt accurate intelligence of whatever in the wide
world is worth attention: To .his end tho re-
sources belonging to well-established prosperity
will be liberaily employed.
