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 as 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 for
this newspaper the confidence and friendship OF
wider constituency than was ever enjoyed by any
other American journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the people. IT is
not for the rich man against the poor man, or 1or
the poor man against the rich man, but 1t seeks to
do equal justice to all interests i'll the 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
rogues every time. 1t is for the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and for the
honest Republican as against the olshonest i1emo-
crat 1t does not take its cue from the utterances
of any politician or political organization 1t gives
its support unreservedly when men ana measures
are in agreement with the Constitution ana with
the principles upon which the Republic was
| founded for the people. Whenever the Constitu-
ton and constitutional principles are vlolated-as
| in the outrageous conspiracy OF 1876, by when a
man not elected was placed IN the Presidents o.
fee where he still remains-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.
