The weekly clarion. [volume] (Jackson, Miss.) 1863-1882, 1879-01-08

The Sun will be printed every day during
| the year to GENE. lis purpose and metho,
| will be the same as in the past To preseu
| all the news in a readable shape, and TO tel
| the truth though the heavens fall.
The Sun has been, is, and will continue t.
| be independent of every body and every ms
| save the Truth aud its own convictions of du
| ty. That is he only policy which an homes
| which has won for this new paper the conf
| dence and friendship of a wider cons ituency
| than was ever enjoyed by any other American
| Journal.
The SUN is the newspaper for the people L

or for the poor man against the rich man, but
! 1t seeks to do equal justice 10 all interests in
| the community. 1t is not the gan of any
person. class, sect or party. There need be NO
mystery about its loves and hates. | is for
| me honest man against the rogues every time
1t is for the honest Democrat as against the
dishonest Republican, and for the honest Re-
publican as agaiust the dishonest Democrat.
IL does not take its cue from the utterances of
any politician or political organization. 1t
gives its support unreservedly when men or
measures are IN agreement W 9TH the Constltu-
lion and with the prIuci pies upon which this
Republic was fouuded for the people. When
ever the Constitution and constitutional prin-
ciples are violated as in the outrageous con-
tracy of 1876, by which man not elected
placed IN the Presidents off e, where he
still remains-it speaks out for the right That
is THE Suns idea of independence In this
res ect there will be no change in it's pro-
gramme for 1879.
The sun has fairly earned the hearty hatred
of rascals, frauds and humbugs of all sorts
and sizes. 1t hopes to erve that hatred not
less In the year 1879, than in 1873 1877, or any
year gone by. The Sun will continue to shine
on the wicked with unmitigated brightness.
While the lessons of The past should he
stantly kept before the people, The Sun does
not prop to make itself in 1879 magazine
of ancient histo V. Its printed for the men
and women OF to-day, whose concern is chiefly
with the affairs of to-day. 1t has both the
disposition and the ability to afford read
ers the promptest. fullest and most accurate
intelligence OF whatever III the wide world is
worth attention. To this end the resources be-
longing to we'll esta blished prosperity will be
literally employed.
The present disjointed condition of parties
in this country, AMI the uncertainty of the
future, lend an extraordinary significance to
the events of the coming year. The discus
sons of the press, the debates and acts of
Congress, and the movement of the leaders in
every section of the Republic will have a di-
rect bearing on the Presidential election of
l880-an event which must be regarded with
most anxious interest by every pa riotic Amer
lean, whatever his political ideas or allegiance
To these elements of in crest may be added
the probability that the Democrats will CON
rol both houses of Congress. the increasing
feebleness of the fraudulent Admi nistration,
and the spread and strengt hening everywhere
OF healthy adherence of fraud in any form.
To present with accuracy and cleaFness the
exact siiuarion in each of its varying phases,
and TO expound, according to its well-known
me- hods, he principles that should guide
through the labyrinth will he an important
part of The Suns work for 1879
We have the means of making THE Sun, as
a political a literary and a general newspa-
per more entertaining and more useful than
ever before; and we mean to apply them freely. !
