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 a
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
THE SUN has been. is, and will continue to bt
Independent of everybody and everything save
the Truth and its owl convictions of duty. Thal
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 a
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 fol
the poor man against the rich man. but it seeks tc
do equal justice to all interests in the community
1t is not the organ OF any person. class, sect oi
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

of any politician political organization 1t gives
its support unreservedly when men and measures

the principles upon which the Republic was
founded for the people. Whenever the Constitu

In this respect there will be no change in its pro
gnamme for 1879.
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty hatred Of
ras ais, frauds, and humbugs of all sorts anG
sizes 1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less in
the year 1875 than in 1873, 1877 or any year gone

to-day II has both the disposition and the abi
ity to afford its readers the promptest, fullest and
most accurate intelligence Of whatever in the wide
world is worth attention. To this end the re-
sources belonging to wellestablished prosperity
will be literally employed.
The present disjoiRted condition of parties in
this country, and the uncertainty of the future
lend an extraordinary significance to the events oi
the coming year. The 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 18S0-an event which must be
regarded with the most anxious interest by every
patriotic American, whatever his political ideas OF
allegiance. To these elements of interest may bt
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 q healthy
abhonence of fraud in any form. To present witt
accuracy and clearness the exact situation in eacl
of its varying phases, and to expound, accordins
to its well known methods the principles tha
should guide us through the labyrinth, will be an
important part of THE SUMS work for 1879
