LOS ANGELES. SUNDAY MORNING. JUNE 8. 1879
LITERARY.
the SUN FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day
during thu year to come. Its purpose and
method will be the same as III the past:
10 present all the news In res liable
shape, ana to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
The SUN has been. is, and will con-
tinue to be independent of everybody and
every thing We the Truth anu its own
convi ,lions Of duty. That is the policy
which has won for this newspaper the con-
fdence aud 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 TOR the rich man against
the poor man. or fer 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. It 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
ocrat. 1t does not take Its cue from the
utterances Of any politician OF political or
ganization. 1t gives its support unreserv-
eddy when mon or measures are in agree
ment with the Constitution and with the
principles upon which this Republic was
rounded Tor the people. Whenever the
Constitution and constitutional principles
are violated-as In the outrageous conspir-
acy Of 1876, by which q man not elected
was placed IN the Presidents Office. where
he still remains-it speaks ont for the
pendence. In this respect there will DO no
change in its programme for 1879.
The Sun has fairly earned the hearty
hatred of rascals, frauds and humbugs Of
all sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that haired 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 unmitigated brightness.
Whist 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. It il
printed for the men and Eemen Of to-day,
whose concern IL 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 il worth at
tenrion. 10 this nd the resources belong
ing to wsll-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disjointea condition Of par
ties in this country and the uncertainty Of
the future lend an extraordinary signifi.
The discussions OF the press, the debates
and acts of Congress, and the movements
u the leaders III every section Of the Re
public, will have direct bearing on the
Presidential election Of l880-xn event
which must DO regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
loan, whatever his political ideas or slle-
glance. To these elements Of interest may
be added the probability that the Demo-
Gratis will control both houses Of Congress,
the increa.ing feebleness OF the fraudulent
strengthe ming everywhere OF healthy ali
horrence OF fraud in any form. 10 pre-
cent 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. Will lie an I'M
portant part OF THE SUMS work for 1879.
