NEWSPAPER.
THE SUN FOR 1880.

THE SUN will deal with the events of the year
1880 in its own fashion, now pretty well under
stood by everybody From January to Deem
ber 81 it will be conducted as newspaper, writ
| ten in the English language, and printed for the
people.
| AS newspaper THE SUN believes in getting
| all the news the world promptly and present
ing it in the most intellieible shape-the shape
that will enable its readers to keep well abreast of
the age with the least unproductve ex penditure of
time. The greatest interes to the greatest num-
ber-that is the law controlling its daily make.
up. 1t now has circulation very much larger
than that OF any other American newspaper, and
enjoys an income which it is at all times prepared
to spend literally for the benefit of its readers
People of all conditions of life and all ways of
thl king buy and read THE SUN; and they all de-
rive satisfaction OF some sort from its columns,
for they keep on buying and reading it.
In its comments on men and affairs, THE SUN
believes that the only guide Of policy should be
common sense, inspired by genuine Ameri-
can PRINCIPLES and backed by honesty of
purpose. For this reason it is, and will continue
to be, absolutely independent OF party, class,
clique, organization Or interest 1t is for ALL but
OF none. 1t will continue to praise what is good
and leprohate what is evil, taking care that its
language is to he point and plain, beyond the
possibility OF being misunderstood. 1t is uninfiu
face; it has no opinions to sell, save those which
may be had by any purchaser with two cents 1t
hates injustice and rascality even more than it
hates unnecessary words 1t abb rs frauds pites
fools end dep lores nincompoops of eve'y Species
1t will continue throughout the year 1880 to chas-
tise the first class instruct the second and dis
countenance the third. All honest men, with
honest. convictions. whether sound or mistaken,
are its friends. And THE SUN makes no bones of
telling the truth to its friends ana about its friends
whenever occasion arises for plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which THE SUN
will be conducted during the year to come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no patriotic
American can afford to close his eyes to public
affairs 1t is impossible to exaggerate the IMPORT
ance of the political events which il has in store,
or the necessity Of resolute vigilance on the part
of every citizen who desires TO preserve the Gov
ernment that the founders gave us. The debates
and acts OF Congress- the ulteranceso of the press,
the excting contests of the Republican and Demo
cratic parties now nearly equal in strength
throughout the country, the varying drift of pub
lie sentiment will all bear directly and effectively
upon the twenty-fourth Presidential election to be
held in November Four years ago next Noyem-
Der the will OF the nation, as expressed at the
polls, was thwarted by all abominable conspiracy,
the promoters and boneficiaries of wch still hold
the Off es thev stole. Will the crime of 1876 be
repeated in 1892 The past decade of years opened
with corrupt, extravagant and insolent Admin
istration intrenched at Washington. The SUN did
something toward disodging the gang and break
to restore their leaders and themselves to places
from which they were driven by the indignation
of the people. VIII they succeed? The coming
year will bring the answers to these momentous
questions. The SUN will be on hand to chronicle
the facts as they are developed and to exhibit
lhem clearly and fearlessly in their relations to
expediency and right
Thus with a habit OF philosophical good
humor in looking at the minor affairs OF life, and
in great things steadfast purpose to maintain the
rights of the people and the principles of the
J Constitution against all aggressors, The SUN is
prepared to write atruthful, instructive. and, al
the same time, entertaining history of 1880.
