THE SUN FOR 1879.

THE Sun will be printed every day during tho
year to come Its purposes and method Will be the
same rs Ia the past: To present all the news in
readable shape, and to tell the truth though the
| heavens fall.
THE Sun has been, and will continue to be indie
pendent of everybody and everything save the
Truth and its own convictions Of duty That Is the
only policy which an honest newspaper need have.
That Is the policy which has won for this ncwspa-
per the confidence and friendship of a wider con-
stituency than was ever enjoyed by any other
American Journal.
TIE Sun is the newspaper for the people. It Is
not for the rich man against the poor man, or for
the poor man against the rich man, but II seeks to
do equal Justice to all the interests In the commu
nifty. II Is not the organ Of any person. class sect
or party There need be no mystery about its loves
and hates. II Is for the honest man against the
rogues every time. It Is for the honest Democrat
US against the dishonest Republican. and for the
honest Republican Us against the dishonest Demo-
crat. 1t does not take its cue from the utterances
of any politician political organization. 1t gives
its support unreservedly when men or measures
are In agreement with the Constitution and with
the principles upon which this Republic was foun-
ded for the people. Whenever the Constitution and
constitutional principles are yiolated-as In tho
outrageous conspiracy of 1876, by which q man not
elected was placed In the Presidents office, wherc
he still remains-it speaks out for the right. That
is THE SUNS idea Of Independence. In this re-
is7s. iS7S. '''''N w."
THE Sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred Of
rascals frauds, and humbugs Of all sorts and sizes.
1t hopes to deserve that hatred not less in the year
1879 than in 1878, 1877, or any year gone by: THE
Sun will continue to shine on the wicked with un-
mtigated brightness.
While the lessons Of the past should be constant
y kept before the people, THE Sun does not pro-
pose TO make itself In 1879 a magazine Of ancient
history. II is printed for the men and women OF
to-day, whose concern is chiefly with the affairs
OF to-day. II has both the disposition and the
ability to afford its readers the promptcst fullest,
and mos; accurate intelligence of whatever in the
wide world is worth attention. To this end the re-
sources belonging to well-cstabliscd prosperity
will he literally employed.
Tho present disDinted condition Of parties in
this country, and the uncertainty Of the future,
lend extraordinary Significance to the events Of
the coming year. The discussions of the press, the
debates and acts Of Congress, and the movements
of the leaders in every section of the Republic will
have direct bearing on the Presidential election
of 1SS0-an event which must be regarded with the
most anxious interest by every patriotic American,
whatever his political ideas or allegiance To these
clements of interest may be added the probability
that the Democrats will control both houses OF Con-
gress, the increasing fecbcncss of the fraudulent
Administration and The spread and strengthening
everywhere of healthy abhorrepce of fraud in
any form. To present with accuracy and clearncss
the exact situation in each Of its varying phases,
and tO eXponnd, according TO its well-known
methods, the principles that should guide us through
the labyrinth, will be an important part of The
SUNS work for 1879.
