Lexington weekly intelligencer. (Lexington, Mo.) 1871-1887, 1879-10-04
THE sun FORlS19.

The sun Will be printed every day during the
year to come. It's purpose and method will be
the same as in the past: 10 present all the news
in Il readable shape, and to tell the truth though
the heavens fall.
The sun has been, is, and will continue to be
independent OF every body and everything save
the truth ana its own convictions Of duty. That
Is the only policy which an honest newspaper
need have. That Is the policy which has won
Tor this newspaper the confidence and friendship
OF Il wider constituency than WAS ever enjoyed
by any other American journal.
The sun Is the newspaper for The people. 1t Is
not Tor The rich man against the poor man. or
for the poor man against the rich man, but it
community. IL is not the organ of any pei son,
class, sect or party. There need be no mystery
about its loves and hates. 1t is Tor the honest
man against the rogucS every time. 1t Is for the
honest democrat as against the dishonest repub-
lican, and for The honest republican rs against
the dishonest democrat. IL does not take its cue
from lhr uttrriuccs OF any politician or poll, ical
organization. IL gives It's support unreservcdly
when men or measures are in agreement with
the constitution and with the principles upon
which thisrepublic was founded for the people.
Whenever the constitution and constitutional
principles are yloiaie'i-as IN the outrageous
conspiracy Of lS16, by which Il man not elected
WIS placed Ill the presidents office, where he
still remains 1t speaks out ior the right; That
pcct there Will. he no change IN ITS proSI anime
