The Cincinnati daily star. [volume] ([Cincinnati, Ohio]) 1875-1880, 1878-11-12
NEWSPAPERS,
THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day during tho
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
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 log
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 ID
not for the rich man against the poor man, or tot
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 On
party. There need be no mystery about its lovea
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 tho
honest Republican rs against the dishonest Demo-
crat. 1t does not take 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 with
the principles upon which the Republic was
founded for the people. Whenever the COnstitu-
ton and constitutional principles are volated-as
in the outrageous conspiracy of 1876 by which
man not elected was placed in the Presidents Of
flee 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
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty hatred Of
rascals frauds, and humbugs OF all sorts and
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 constant
ly 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. 1t has both the disposition and the abii-
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 present disjoiHted condition OF parties in
this country, and the uncertainty OF the future,
lend an extraordinary significance 10 the events OF
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 Prcsi-
Dental election of lS80-an event which must be
| regarded with the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his political ideas or
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 tho
spread and strengthening everywhere of healthy
adherence of fraud in any form. To present with
accuracy and cearness 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 an
important part of THE SUNS work for 1879.
