THE SUN FOR 1878.

THE SUN will be printed every day
during tn year to como. Its puipuss aud
method will be tue same as Ill the past
o present all the news i'll II reauable
shape, and to tell the truth though the
leastnS faIl
The SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to be lndependent OF ev rybody and
every thin, We the Truth and its o.n
cunvi tiuns Of duty. That is tho p0iicy
which has won for this newspapet the con-
fdeuce and friendship of Il wiuer coustitu-
ency than was ever enjoyed by any other
American Journai.
TILE sun is the newspaper for the peo-
pie. 1t is not Tor the rich man gains t
the poor mau, or for tho poor man against
the rich man, but it seeks to do equal JUS
tIce to all classes in the community IL Is
not the organ OF any person, class, sect or
party. There need be no mystery about
Its loves and hates. 1t ID for the honest
man against the rosues every time. 1t ID
for the houe5t Democrat as against the
dishonest Republican, aud for the honest
Republican az against the dishonest Dem
ocrat. 1t does not take Its cue fron the
utteranoes of any politician or political or
ganiZatlon. 1t gives it's SUPP ort unreserv-
edly when men or measures are In agree
ment with the Constitution and with the
principles upon which this Republic was
founded Tor the people. Whenever the
Constitution aud constitutional prime pies
are violated -a3 in the outrageous consplr-
acy OF 1876, by which man not elected
was plared In the Plesldeuts Office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is The SUNS idea Of indie
penuence. In this respect there will be no
change in its programme lor 1879.
The Sun has fairly earned tile nearty
hatred Of rascals, frauds and humbugs OF
ali sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that haired not less i'll the year 1879 tnan
in 1878, 1877, or any year gone by. THE
sun will continue to shine Oh the wicked
with unmitisated brightness.
Whilst the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before the people, HE
SUN does not propose to make itself III
1879 a magazine OF ancient history. 1t 10
printed for the men and yenen 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
est, fullest and must accura'e intelligence
of whatever i'll tie wide world is worth at
teption. TO this end the resources belong
ing to well-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disjUinted condition OF par
ties in this country and the uncertainty of
the future lend an extraordinary signih-
csuce to the events Of the comiug year.
The discussions OF the press, tho debates
and acts of Congress, and the movements
Vi the leaders i'll every section OF the lie
public, will huve direct bearing on the
Presidential election of lSo0-an event
which must be regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
ican, whatever his political ideas or aiie-
glance. To these elements of interest NAV
be added the probability taat the Demo-
Gratis VIII control both houses OF Congress,
the increasing feebleness o. the fraudulent
Adminstra ion. and the sDreau ana
