NEWSPAPERS.
THE SUN FOR 1870,

TIE Sun win 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
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
TIE Sun has been, is, and will continue to be
independent OF everybody and everything save
is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. Th t is the policy which has won for
this newspaper the confidence and friendship OF
wider constituency than was ever enjoyed by any
other American journal.
THE sun is the newspaper TO- the people. 1t 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 i'll tn 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
r0gues every time. 1t is for the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and for the
honest Republican as ngainSt the dishonest Demo
crat. II docs not Ike its cue from the utteranccs
of any politician political organization. II gives
| its support unreservedly when men and measures
| are in agreement with the Constitution and with
the principles upon which the Republic was
| founded for the people. Whenever the COnstitu-
ton and constitutional principles are violated-as
| in the outrug GUS conspiracy of 1876, by which a
man not elected was placed in the Presidents Of
tice where he still renains--it speaks out for the
right. That is TIE SUNS idea Of Independence
In this respect there will be no change in its pro-
The SUN has fairly earned the hearty hatred of
ras ais frauds, and humbugs OF oil sorts and
sizes 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less in
the year 1879 than in 1873, 1877, 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
iy 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
today, whose concern is chiefly with the affairs Of
to-day. II has both the disposition and the abil-
most accurate intelligence Of whatever in the wide
| world is worth attention. To this end the re-
sources belonging to welestablshed prosperity
will be literally employed
| The pr sent disoiHted condition OF parties in
this country, and the uncertainty of the future,
lend extraordinary significance 10 the events of
the coming year. The discussions OF the press,
the debates and acts of Congress- and the move
ments of the leaders in every section of the Re
public will have direct bearing on the Presi-
Dental election of 1880-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his political ideas oI
allegiance. To these elements OF interest may be
added the probability that the Democrats will con-
troll both houses of Congress, the increasing feeble
ness of the fraudulent Administration, and the
spread and strengthening everywhere of healthy
adherence of fraud in any form. To present with
accuracy and clearness the exact situation in each
Of It's varying phases, and TO expound, according
to its wellknown methods. the principles that
should guide us through the labyrinth, will be an
important part Of THE SUNS work for 1879
