The Cincinnati daily star. [volume] ([Cincinnati, Ohio]) 1875-1880, 1878-11-23
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
Independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and its ow1 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. 1t is
| not for the rich man against the poor man, or fo!
the poor man against the rich man, but it seeks 10
do equal justice to all interests in 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 thc
rogues every time. 1t is ior the honest Democrat
as against the dishonest Republican, and ior the
honest Republican as against the dishonest DemG.
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 vioated-as
| in the outTage GUS conspiracy Of 1876 by which
=. man not elected was placed in the Presidents oil
flee, where he still remainsit 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
TIE sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred of
| ras oils, frauds, and humbugs of all sorts and
SDeA IL hopes 10 ucStINe bllut less III
the year 1879 than in 1873, 1877, or any year gone
| by. THE SUN will continue to shine on the wicked
with unmitgated brightness
While the lessons of the past should be constant
iy 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 W tn the affairs
to day. II has both the disposition and the abil
iy to afford its readers the prompest fullest ana
most accurate intelligence of whatever in the wide
world is worth attention: To this end the re-
sources belonging to welestablished prosperity
will be literally employed
The pr sent disjoRted condition OF parties in
this country and the uncertainty of the future
lend extraordinary significance TO the events OF
4 the coming year. The discussions OF the pres,
| 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 1SS0-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest by every
| patriotic American, Whatever his political ideas o.
| 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
abhorrence of fraud in any form. To present with
accuracy and clearness the exact situation in each
of its varying phases, and 10 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.
