The S2ka2 for 1870,

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
thought the heavens fall.
The Sun has been, is, and will continue to be
independent OF everybody and everything Save
That Is tho only policy which all honest new
paper need have. That is the policy which has
won Tor this newspaper the confidence and
friendship of q wider constituency than WAS
ever enjoyed by any AncliC;!! Journal.
The sun is the newspaper for the people II
is not for the rich man against the poor man or
for the poor man against the rich man. but it
seeks to do equal Justice to al! interests in com
munlty. 1t Is not the organ Of any person, claSr,
sect or party. There need be no mvrcry about
its loves and hates. 1t is for the honest man
against the rOgucs every time. tits for the honest
Democrat as against the dishonest Republican,,
and for the honest Republican as against the
dishonest Democrat. 1t does not take its che
from the utterances of any politician or politi-
cal organization. 1t gives its support unrcserv-
eddy when men or measures are in agreement
with the Constitution and with the princplrs
upon which this Republic was founded for tie
people. Whenever the Constitution and con
stitltion principles are vioIated-ts III the out

elected was placed in the Presidents office.
where he still Temans-it speaks out for the
right. That is The Suns idea of indepenti, nee.
IL 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
size. 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less
i'll the year 1879, than in 1878, 1877, or any year
gone by. The Sun will continue to shii. on the
wicked with unnitigated Brightness
While the lessons Of the past should he con
stantly ken, haiare the people, The s3i.r does
not propose to make itself in 1879 IL M; gaZi,,e
Of ancient history. 1t is printed for the men
women of to-day, whose concern is chiefly witt.

The present disjointed condition Of parties in
this country, and the uncertainty Of the furture
lend all ex traordlnary significance to the events

dental election OF 19s'-an event wnch must
be regarded with the most anxious interest by
every patriotic American, whatever his political
ideas or allegiance. The these elements of in
terest may be added the probability that the
Democrats will control both houses of Congress-
the increasing feebencss of the fraudulent Adj
minstration, and the spread and streggt heuing

in any form. To present with accuracy and
clearness the exact situation an each OF its
