NEWSPAPERS.
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
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
THE SUN has been is and will continue to be
of everybody and everything save
the Truth and its own convictions OF duty. That
Is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. TIL t is the policy which has won for
this newspaper the confidence and friendship OF a
wider constituency than was ever en- joyed by any
other American journal.
THE 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 e. sect or
party. There need be no mystery about its loves
and hates. 1t is for the honest man against the
rngues every time 1t is for the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and for the
honest Republican as against the dishonest Demo-
crat. 1t docs not tke its cue from the utterances
of any politician political organization. 1t gives
its support unreservedly when men and measures
are in agreement with the Constitution and tn
the principles upon which the Republic was
founded for the people. Whenever the Consttu-
ton and constitutional principles are violatcd-as
in the Outrag Gus conspiracy OF 1876, by VIII ich
man not elected was placed in the Presidents Of
tice where he still reinans-it speaks out for the
right. That is THE SUNS 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 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less in
the year 1879 than in 1873, 1871 or any year gone
by. THE SUN will continue to shine on the wicked
with unmitigatcd brightness
While the lessons OF The past should be constant
y 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. Il has both the disposition and the abil
y to afford its readers the promptest fullest and
most accurate intelligence of whatever in the wide
world is worth attention. To this end the re-
sources belonging to Well-eStabllShed prosperity
will be literally employed
The pr mt disoiRted condition oi parties in
this country and the uncertainty of the future,
lend extraordinary significance to 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 a direct bearing on the PreSi-
Dental election of lSS0-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his political ideas
| 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 its varying phases. and to expOund, according
| to its well known methods. the principles that
should guide us through the labyrinth. will be all
