The SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every da,
method will be the same as / n the past
To present all the news in q readable
shape, and 10 tell the truth though tn
heavt ms fall.
The SUN has been, is, and will con
tinue to be independent of everybody and
everything AVE The Truth aud its OWE
convictions OF duty. i hat il the policy
which has won for this newspaper the con.
fidence and frif ndship OF wider consritu.
ency thsn was ever enjoyed by any other
American Journal.
THE sun is tle newspaper for the peo-
pie. 1t is not ior the rich man ag sinst
the poor man, or for the poor man against
the rich man, but it seeks to do equal JUS
tice to all classes in the community 1t is
not the organ OF any person, class, sect or
party. There neei be no mystery about
its loves and hates. 1t il for the honest
man against the rosues every time. 1t is
for the honest ID mocrat as against the
dishonest r pub lean, and for the honest
Republican, as aga list the dishonest Dem
ocrat. 1t does not take its cue fro u the
utterances u any politician or political Or
gan cation. 1t gives its support unreserv-
edly when men or measures are in agree-
ment with the Constitution and with the
principles upon which this Republic was
founded Tor the people. Whenever the
Const tuition and constitutional principles
are yiolated-as in the outrageous conspir-
acy OF 1876, by which a man not elected
was pa ed In the Presidents office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is THE SUMS idea Of inde-
pendence. In this respect there 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 tn deserve
that Ia red not less in the year 1879 than
in 1878. 1877, or any year gone by. THE
sun WILL continue 10 shine on the wicked
with unmitigated brightness.
Whilst the lessons of the past should be
constantly kept before the people, HE
SUN does not propose to make itself in
1879 magazine Of ancient history. 1t IL
printed for the men and women Of to-day,
whose concern is chi, fly with the affairs OF
to-day. 1t has both the disposition and
the ability to afford its readers the prompt
est, fullest and most accura intelligence
OF whatever in the wide world is worth at
tention. 10 this End the resources belong
ing to well-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disj inted condition of par

the future lend an extraordinary signifi-
csnce to the events OF the coming year.
The discussions OF the press, the debates
and sets OF Congress, and the movements
OF the leaders i'll every section of the Re-
public, will have direct bearing on the
Presidential election of 1S8O-an event
which must be regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
lean, whatever his poit'cal ideas or slle-
glance. To these elements Of interest may
be added the probability that the Demo-
Gratis VII control both houses of Congress,
the increasing feebleness OF the fraudulent
Administration, and the spread and
strength. ming everywhere OF a healthy al.
horrence OF fraud in any form. 10 pre-
sent with accuracy and clearness the exact
situation in each OF its var, ing phases, and
to expound, according to its we l-known
methods, the principles that should guide
us through the labyrinth, will te an i'm
portant part OF THE SUMS work for 1879.
