THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE Sun viii be printed every j,y during the
year to come. its puposc and method VIII be
the same as in the past: To present al the news
in readable shape. and 10 tell the truth though
the heavens fan.
TIE SIN has been. Is, and viii continue TO b'a
independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and lis own convictions Of duty. That
is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. That i the policy which has won
for this newspaper the confidence ana friend
ship of a wider constituency than was ever en-
ioyed by any other American Journal
TrIE SUN is the newspaper for the people. II
IS not for the rich man against the poor man, or

seeks 10 do equal justice 10 al interests III the
community. 1t is not the organ of any person.

about its loves and hates Ii Is for the honest
man against the rugues every time. II is for
the honest Democrat as against the dishonest
Republican, and for the honest Republican as
against the dishonest Democrat. 1t does not
take its cue from the uJtcTances OF any poll

agreement with the Constitution aud with the
principles upon which tins Republic was founded
for the people. Whenever the Constitution
and constitutional principles are yioatcd-as in
the outrageous conspiracy OF 1876. by which
man not elected was placed III the Presidents
office, where he still remains-it speaks out Tor
the right. That is THE SUNS idea OF indepeu-

THE sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred
of rascals, frauds, and humbugs Of all sorts and
sizes. 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less
in the 1879 than III 1875, 1871, or any year gone

wicked with unmiti@ated brightness.
W lille the lessons OF the past should he con

not propose 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. 1t has both the disposition
and the ability TO afford its readers the prompt

To this end the resources belonging to welI-cs-
tabllshed prosperity will be literally employ ed.
