THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day
during the year to como. 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 con-
tinue to be independent OF everybody and
everything save the Truth and its own
convictions Of duty. That is tho policy
which has won for this newspaper the con-
fdence and friendship of wider constitu-
ency than was ever enjoyed by any other
American journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the peo-
pie. 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 equal JUS
tice to all classes in the community. 1t IS
not the organ OF any person, class, 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
dishonest Republican, and for the honest
Republican as against the dishonest DEM
oerat. 1t docs not take its cue from tho
utterances of any politician Or political or
ganization. 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 for the people. Whenever the
tsuu
are violated-as in the outrageous conspir-
acy Of 1876, by which man not elected
was placed in the Presidents office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is I'll h SUN y idea Of inde-
pendenco. In this respect there will bs NO
change in its programme ior 1879.
TEE SUN has fairly earned the hearty
hatred OF rascals, FRAUDS and humbuSs oi
all sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
fi1at u hAtrp1 nnt tpsa in fna 1A74 than
in 1873, 1877, or any year gone by. THE
Sun wall continue to shine OF tine wicked
with unmitigated brightness.
Whist the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before tho people, THE
SUN does not propose TO make itself in
1879 q magazine OF ancient history. 1t is
printed for the men and yemen 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
ost, fullest and most accurate intelligence
of whatever in the wide world ID worth at
tention. 10 this end the resources belong
ing to well-establishod prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disjeinted condition Of par
ties in this country and the uncertainty OF
the future lend an extraordinary eigniti-
cance to the events OF the coming year.
The discussions OF the press, the debates
and acts of Congress, and the movements
of the leaders III every section of the Re-
public, will have a direct bearing ON the
| Presidential election of 18S0-an event
which must be regarded with the most
| anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
ican, whatever his political ideas or alle-
glance. 10 these elements Of interest may
be added the probability that the Demo-
| Gratis w control both houses OF Congress,
the increasing feebleness of the fraudulent
Administration. and the spread and
| strengthening everywhere OF healthy ab-
horrence OF fraud in any form. 10 pre-
sent with accuracy and olearness the exact
situation in each OF it's varying phases, and
| to expound, according TO its well-known
methods, the principles that should guide
Us through the labyrinth, viii be an I'M
portant part OF THE SUMS work for 1879.
