Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1878-12-14
THE sun FOR 1879.

TIE SUN will be printed every day dur
ing 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.
THR Sun has been, is, and will continue
to be independent OF everybody and every
thing save the Truth and it's own cOnvic-
tons 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 wider constituency than was ever en-
joyed by any other American Journal
TIE Sun is the newspaper for the peo-
pla. 1t is not for the rich man against the
poor man, or for the poor man against the
rich man, but it seeks to do Qtlal justice
to all interests in the community. 1t 10
not the organ of any person, GLASS; 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 dis
honest Republican, and for the honest Re
publican as against the dishonest Demo
crat. 1t does not take its cue from the ut
terances Of any politician or political or
gauzatlon. II gives Its support unrcser-
yedly when menso measures. are in agree
principles upon which this Republic was
founded tor the people. WhervvIr the
Constitution and constitutional principles
are violated-as in the outrageous conspi-
racy OF 1876, by which q man was not
elected was placed In the Presidents office
where he still remains-it speaks out for
the right. That is THE SUNS idea Of in
dependence. In this respect therse will be
no change in its programme for 1879
The SUN has fairly earned the hearty
hatred OF rascals, frauds and humbugs of
all sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that hatred not less in the year 1879, than
in 1878, 1877, or any year gone by. TIE
Sun will continue to shine on the wicked
with unnitigated brightness.
While the lessons of the past should be
constantly kept before the people. THE
Sun does not propose to make itself in
1879 a 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 ability to afford Its readers the prompt
test, fullest, and most accurate intelligence
OF whatever in the wide world is worth
attention. To this end the resources be-
longing to wcll-cstablished propr:ety will
be literally employed.
The preset disjointed condition of par
ties in this country, and the uncertainty of
the future, lend an extraordinary signiti-
canoe to the events OF The coming year.
The discussions Of the press, the debates
and acts Of Congress, and the movements
of the leaders in every section of the Re
public will have q direct bearing on the
Presidential election in 1SS0-an event
which must be regarded with the most an
xious interest by every patriotic American
whatever his political ideas or allegiance
To these elements Of interest may be adj
died the probability that the Democrats
will control both houses of Congress, the
increasing feebleness of the fraudulent
administration, and the spead and strength
ening everywhere of Il healthy adherence
OF fraud IN any form. To present with
accuracy and clearness the exact situation
in each of its varying phases, and to eX-
pound, according to its well known meth
DDS, the principles that should guide us
through the labyrinth will be an import
ant part of The SUITS work for 1870.
