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:
10 present all the news in readable
shape, ana to tell the truth though the
Leasens fall.
THE SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to be- independent Of CIV .rybody and
every THU, We tue Truth and its own
convi lions Of duty. That is the pJiicy
which has won for this newsp tpec the cou-
fdence aud friendship of wider colstitu-
ency than was ever enjoyed by any other
Am licaI journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the peo-
Pile. 1t ID nos Tor the rich man agsin,t
the poor mau, or for tile poor man against
the rich man, but ii seeAs To do equal JUS
tlce To all classes III the community IL Is
not the organ vi any person, class. sect or
party. There neei Do no mystery about
Its loves and hates. 1t is for the honest
man against the rosues every time. 1t is
for the hDuest Democrat Id against the
dishonest republican, and for the honest
hepublicau us against the dishonest DEM
ocrat. 1t does not take Its cue fro ii the
utterances Of any pol tlciau Or political or
gan, zatlOn. 1t gives Its support unreserv-
edly when men or measures are in agree
ment with the Constitution aud with the
principles upon which this h public was
founded ior the people. Whenever the
Const tuition ana constitutional principles
are violated as in the outrageous conspir-
acy of 1876, by which d man not elected
was p a. led III tie Presidents Office, where
he still remaius-lt speaks out for the
right. That is I'll - SUNS idea Of indie
penlence. LII this respect there will be no
change III its programme Tor 1879.
The sun has fairy earned the hearty
hatred OF rascals, frauds and humbugs Of
all sort, and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that l,red not less in the year 1879 than
IN 1878, 1877, or any year gone by. THE
sun WILL continue 10 shine Oh the wicked
with unmitigated brightness.
Whilst the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before the people, The
SUN does not propose to make itself in
1879 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
est, fullest and most accurate intelligence
of Whatever in the wide world is worth at
tention. 10 this end the resources belong
ing to well-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disjointed condition Of par
ties in this country and the uncertainty of
the future lend an extraordinary signif-
canoe to the events of the coming year.
The discussions OF the press, the debates
and acts Of Congress, and the movements
Of the leaders i'll every section of the Re-
public, will have direct bearing on the
Presidential election of lSS0-an event
which must be regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
lean, whatever his political ideas or alle-
glance. To these elements of interest may
be added the probability that the Demo-
Gratis viii control both houses Of Congress,
the increasing feebleness OF the fraudulent
Administration. and the spread and
strengthening everywhere OF a healthy all
horrence OF fraud in any form. 10 pre-
sent with accuracy and clearness the exact
situation in each OF its varying phases, and
to expound, according to its well-known
methods, the principles that should guide
us through the labyrinth, VIII he an I'M
portant part OF THE SUMS work for 1879.
