LOS ANGELES FRIDAY MORNING. OCT 3 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 Ia the past
| 10 present all the news in READABLE
| shape, AMI to tell the truth though the
heavens fall.
The SUN has bon, is, and will con-
| tinue to be- independent Of ev rybody and
| every thin, 8 We the Truth and Its o.n
convl lions of duty. That is the policy
which has won for tnis newspaper the con-
| fidence and friendship of wider coustitu-
| enoy imam was ever enjoyed by any other
Americas journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the peo-
pie. 1t Is MOI Tor the rich man ag ainst
the poor man, or for tile poor man against
the rich man, but IL seeHs to do equal JUS
tice TO all classes III the community Ii Ii
| hot the organ OF any person, CLASS, sect or
| party. There need DO no mystery about
| Its loves and hates. 1t is for tue honest
man against the rosues every time. 1t is
for the honest Democrat as against the
dishonest Republican, and for the honest
Republican DID against the dishonest Dem
| ocrat. 1t does not take Its cue fro Ii the
utterances Of any politician Or political or
ganIzatiUn. 1t gives Its support unreserv-
eddy When men or measures are In agree
nlent with the Constitution and with the
principles upon which this Republic was
founded ior the people. Whenever the
Constitution ana constitutional principles
are violated AS in the outrageous cunspir-
acy Of 1876, by which man not elected
was paced In the Presidents office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is III u BUNS idea Of inde-
penueuce. In this respect there will be no
change IN Its prUSramne lor 1873.
The sun has fairly earned tile nearly
hofr Afaf 10 ,.d htt., h,,., .,f
ali sort, and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that h red not 1858 in the year 1879 than
IN 1878, 1877, or any year gone by. The
SUN wall continue 10 SHINE on the wicked
with unniltls gated brightness.
Whilst the lessons OF the past should be
constantly kept before the people, lie
sun does not propose to make Itself IN
1879 magazine vi ancient history. 1t Id
printed for the men and somen 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 accura Intelligence
vi Whatever III the wide world is worth at
tentlon. 10 this end the resources belong
ing TO well-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disjointed condition of par
ties i'll this country and the uncertainty of |
the future lend an extraordinary slgnif- |
Canoe to the events OF the cUmlug year. |
The discussions OF the press, the debates
and acts Of Congress, and the movements
Vi the leaders i'll every section of the Re
public, will have direct bearing on the
Presidential election Of l0oO-an event
which must TO regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
lean, whatever his political ideas or alie-
glance. To these elements Of interest may
be added the probability tlat the Demo-
Gratis W II control bOtn houses OF Congress, |
the increasing feebleness OF the fraudulent |
Administration. and the spread and |
strengthe nlnB everywhere OF a healthy ab> |
horrence OF FRAUD III any form. 10 pre- |
sent With accuracy and clearness the exact |
situation IN each OF It's var>l ing phases, and !
10 expound, according to It's weil-known
methods, the principles that should guide
Us Though the labyrinth, Will ue an I'M
