Daily Los Angeles herald., 1879-08-23
the SUN F0R 1873.

THE SUN will be printed every day
during the year to come. Its purpose and
method will be the same as in the past:
10 present all the news in readable
shape, and to tell the truth though the
heavens fall
THE SUN has been, is, AMI will con-
tinue to be independent of everybody and
everything s4ve the Truth and its own
convictions of duty. That is the policy
which has won for this newspaper the con-
fidence and 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 for the rich man against
the poor man, or for the poor man against
the rich man, but it seeks to do equal JUS
tice to all classes in the community. 1t is
not tho organ OF any person, class, sect or
party. There need be no mystery about
| It's loves and hates. 1t 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
ganization. 1t gives its support unreserv-
edly when men or measures are in agree
ment with the Constitution and with the
principles upon which this Republic was
| founded for the people. Whenever tho
| Constitution and constitutional principles
are violated-as in the outrageous conspir-
acy of 1876, by which man not elected
was placed in the Presidents office. where
he still remains-it speaks out for the
right. That is THE SUMS idea of inde-
pendence. In this respect there will be no
change in its programme for 1873.
THE SUN has fairly earned the hearty
hatred of rascals, frauds and humbugs OF
all sorts and sizes. 1t hopes to deserve
that hatred 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.
Whilst the lessons of the past should bt
constantly kept before the people, THE
SUN does not propose to make itself in
1879 magazine Of ancient history. 1t il
printed for the men and women Of to-day
whose concern is chiefly with the affairs O.
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. To this end the resources belong
ing to well-established prosperity will be
literally employed.
Tho present disj ointed condition Of par.
ties in this country and the uncertainty ol
the future lend an extraordinary signifi
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 iu every section Of the Re
Presidential election Of 1S80-an even,
which must DO regarded with the most
anxious interest by every patriotic Amer
icap, whatever his political ideas or allie
; glance. To these clements Of interest may
, be added the probability that the Demo
Gratis will control both houses OF Congress
the increasing feebleness of the fraudulent
Administration. and the spread and
strengthening everywhere OF healthy ab'
horrence Of fraud in any form. To pre-
sent with accuracy and clearness the exac
, situation in each of its varying phases, ant
to expound, according to its well-knowI
, methods, the principles that should guild
! us through the labyrinth, will be an I'm
portant part of THE SUMS work for 1879
