NEWSPAPERS.
THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day during tho
year to come. It's purpose and method will be tho
same as in the past: To present all the news In
readable shape, and to tell the truth though tho
THE SUN has been, is, and will continue to bs
independent OF everybody and everything save
the Truth and its own convictions of duty. Thas
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 Q
wider constituency than was ever enjoyed by any
other American journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the people Ith
not for the rich man against the poor man, or for
the poor man against the rich man, but 1t seeks to
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 the
rogues 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 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 violated-aS
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-
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty hatred Of
ras ais frauds, and humbugs OF al! sorts ana
Sizes 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less in
the year 1879 than in 1878, 1877. 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 it's readers the promptest fullest ana
most accurate intelligence OF whatever in the wide
world Is worth attention; 70 this END the re-
sources belonging to well-established prosperity
will be literally employed.
The pr 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. 1he 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 1SS0-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his political ideas or
allega To these elements of interest may DO
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 an
important part of THE SUNS work for 1879
