the sun FOR 1879.

THE SUN will be printed every day
during tn, ytar to come. Its purpose and
method will be the same as Ia the past:
! o resent all the news in reauable
shape, anu to tell the truth though the
Leavens fall
THE SUN has been, is, and will con-
tinue to be independent of ev rybody and
every thin, We tue Truth anu its o.n
convi lions of duty. That is the poiicy
which has won for this newspaper the con-
fidence ana riendship of d wider coustitu-
ency than was ever enjoyed by any other
Americau journal.
THE SUN is the newspaper for the peo-
pie. 1t is not tor the rich man against
the poor mau, or for the poor man against
the rich man, but it seeks To do equal JUS
tce to all classes in the community 1t ~
not tbs organ VI any person, class, sect q.
party. there need be no mystery about
Its loves and hates. 1t is for tue honest
man against the rosues every time. 1t is
for tho honest Democrat as against the
dishonest Repub, leah, and for the honest
Republican as against the dishonest DEM
ocrat. 1t doe5 not take Its cue fro Ii the
utterances of any pol ticisn Or yollticai Or
yan,2ation. 1t gives It's sup. ort unreserv-
edly When men or mcasures are III agrees
nent with the Consultation and with tn,
,,rinclples upon which this Republic was
ounded ior the people. Whenever the
Constitution aiiu CONSTITUTIONAL prime pies
are violated as in the outrageous conspir-
icy Of 1876, by which man Lot elected
was paced IN the Piesldent's Office, where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is rHe SUNS idea of inde-
pendence. Iu this respect there will be no
change In its pr0sramue Tor 1879.
