The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1878-11-15
THE SUN FOR 1879,

THE SUN will he printed every day during the year
to come Its purpose and method will be the same
in the past 10 present all the news in a readable
shape aud to tell the truth though the heavens fall
THE SUN has been, is and will continue to be indie
pendent of everybody and everything the Truth
and its own convictions of duty That is the only poll
cy an honest newspaper need have. That is the policy
which has won for this newspaper the confidence and
friendship of II wider constituency than was ever en-
joyed by any other American Journal.
TIL SUN is the newspaper for the people. 1t is
for the rich man against the poor man. for the poor
man against the rich man, but it seeks do equal JUS
tice to all interests in the community. 1t is not the
org IN of any person, GLASS; sect party There need
be no mystery about tsores and hates 1t is for the
honest against the rogues every time 1t is for the
honest Democrat against the dishonest Republican,
and for the honest Republican against the dishonest
Democrat 1t does take its from the nj terances
of any politician political organization 1t gives its
support unreservedly when men or measures are in
agreement with the Constitution and the principles
upon which this Republic founded for the people
Whenever the Constitution and constitutional princ
pies volated-as in the outrageous conspiracy of
1876, by which man not elected placed in the
Presidents Office where he still remans-t speaks out
for the right That is THE SUNS idea of independ-
ence. In this respect there will be no change in its
programme for 1879.
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty hatred of ras
GALS frauds aud humbugs of all sorts and sizes 1t
hopes to deserve that hatred not less in the year 1879
than in 1878, 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 constantly
kept before the people, THE SUN does not propose in
1879 to make itself 4azine of ancient history 1t
is printed for the and women of to-day. II has
both the dis ostion and ability to afford its readers
the promptest fullest AMI most accurate intelligence of
whatever in the wide world is worth attention To this
end the resources belonging to well-establshed pros
perity will be literally employed
The present disjointed condition of parties in this
country aud the uncertainty Of the future lend an
raordnary significance to the of the coming year
The discussions of the press the debates and acts of
Congress- and the movements of the leaders of every
section of the Republic will have direct bearing on the
Presidential election of 1SS0-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest by every patr
otto American, whatever his political ideas allegiance
To these elements OF interest may be added the proba
bility that the Democrats will control both houses
Congress- the increasing feebeness of the fraudulent
Administration and the spread and strengthening
rywhere of healthy adherence of fraud in any FORM
To present with accuracy and ceaness the exact sa-
on in each of its varying phases and to expound &C
cordng to its wellknown methods the principles that
should guide through the labyrinth, will be an I'M
portant part of THE SUMS work for 1879
