Essex County herald. [volume] (Guildhall, Vt.) 1873-1964, 1878-11-15
The SUN for 1879.

L day during The year to come, Its
purpose an meth ID will be the same
AZ in the pass: 70 present all the
news in readable shape, an1 to tell
the truth though the heavens fall.
The SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to be Independent! Of everybody
and everything save the Truth and its
own convictions of duty. That is the
only policy which an honest news
paper need have. That is the policy
which has won for this newspaper the
confidence and friendship of a idcr
constituency than was ever enjoyed by
any other American Journal.
HE Sun is the newspaper for 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
in the Community. 1t is not the organ
Of any person, class, sect, or party.
There need be no mystery about its
loves and ha,es. 1t is for the honest
man against the logues every time.
IL is for the honest Democrat As
against the dishonest Republican, and
for the honest Republican as against
the dishonest Democrat. 1t does not
lake It's cue from the utterances of
any politician or political organization.
1t gives its support unrcservetly
| when men or measures are in agree
nent with the Constitution and with
the principles upon which this Re-
public was founded for the people.
Whenever the Constitution and con
stiLuiioual principles ATE violated-as
in the outrageous conspiracy Of 1876,
by which u man not elected was placed
in the Presidents office, where he
still remsins-it speaks ont for the
right. That is TnE SUNS idea of in
dependence. In this resi- ect there
will be no cha rye in its programme
for 1879.
TIE 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 year 1879, than in 1873, 1877,
OF any year gone by. The Sun will
continue to shine Gu the wicked with
unmitigated brightness.
While the lessons of the past should
be constantly kept before lle people,
The SUN does not propose to make
itself in 1879 magazine Of ancien!
history. 1t is printed Ir the men an /
women of to-day, whose concern is
chiefly with the affairs of to-day.
1t has both the disposition and the
ability to afford It's readers the
promDtest, fullssi, and most accurate
intelligence of whatever i'll The wide
world is worth attention. To this end
the resources belonging to welI-estab
lishsl prosperity will ho literally
employed.
The present disjolntcd condition OF
parties in this country, and the uncer-
ta;nty of the future, lend All extra-
ordinary significance to the events Of
the coming year. The discussions Of
the press, the debates aud acts Of
Congress, and the movements Of the
leaders IN every section of the Re
public will have y direct bearing ON
The Presidential election of l8oO--an
event which must be regarded with
the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his poll
tical ideas OF allegiance. TO these
elements OF interest may be added the
probability That the Democrats will
control both houses of Congress, the
increasing feebleness of the fraudulent
Administration, and the spread and
strengthening every here of healthy
adherence of fraud in any form. fu
present with accuracy and clearness
the exact situation III each of it's vaIy-
ing phases, and to expound, according
to It's weilrknown methods, the prin-
clples that should guide us through
the .abrynth, will be an important
part OF TIE suns work for 1879.
