NEWSPAPERS.
THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day during the
wear to come Its purpose and method will be the
same in the past: To present all the news IN a
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
THE SUN has been is and will continue to be
independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and its own convictions of duty. That
is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have That is the policy which has won fol
this newspaper the confidence and friendship of q
wider constituency than was ever enjoyed 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 loI
the poor man against tie rich man, but it seeks tC
do equal justice to all interests in the community
1t is not the organ Of any person, class, sect OF
party. There need be no mystery about its loves
and hates 1t is for the honest man against the
rOgncs every time 1t is Tor the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and for the
honest Republican as against the dishonest Demo
crat 1t does not tlke its cue from the utterances
of any politician or political organization. 1t gives
its support unreserVedly when men and measures
are in agreement with the Constitution and W tn
the principles upon which the Republic was
founded for the people. Whenever the Constltu-
ton and constitutional principles are yolatcd-as
in the Outrag Gus conspiracy OF 1876, by which a
man not elected was placed i'll the Presidents Of
flee where he still renains-it speaks out for the
right That is THE SUNS idea oil independence.
In this respect there will be no change in its pro-
gramme for 1879.
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty hatred of
ras ais frauds, and humbugs OF all sorts and
sizes 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less in
the year 1879 than in 1873 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 constant
ly kept before the people, The SUN does not pro-
history 1t is printed for the men and women of
to day, whose concern is chiefly with the affairs of
to-day II has both the disposition and the abil-
ity 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-established prosperity
will be literally employed.
The Or s Mt disjoiHted condition of parties in
this country, and the uncertainty OF the future,
lend an 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 direct bearing on the Presi-
dental election of 18S0-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest 10y every
patriotic American whatever his pol tical ideas
allega lance 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 eXa 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 an
important part of THE SUNS work for 1879.
