Daily Los Angeles herald. [microfilm reel] (Los Angeles [Calif.]) 1876-1884, 1880-11-04
The SUN FOR 1880.

THE SUN will deal with the events OF
| the year 1880 In its own fashion, now pretty
we'll understood by everybody. From Jam
| uary until December 81 it will be con-
Quoted Is newspaper, written in the Eng
lsh language, and printed for the people.
As . newspaper, THE Sun believes in
getting all the news Of the world promptly,
and presenting it in the most intelligible
shape-the sh ape that will enable its read
ers to keep we'll abreast Of the age with the
least unproductive expenditure Of time,
The greatest interest to the greatest num-
ber-that is the law controlling it's daily
makeup. 1t now has a circulation very
much larger than that Of any other Amer
lean newspaper, and enjoys an income
which It is at all times prepared to spend
People Of all conditions Of life and all WAYS
Of thinking buy and read THE Sun; and
they all derive satisfaction of some sort
| from its columns, for they keep on buying
| and reading it.
| In It's comments on men and affairs,
THE sun believes that the only guide OF
policy should be common sense, inspired
by genuine American principles and
backed by honesty Of purpose. For this
reason 1t Is, and will continue to be- abso-
| iutely independent of party, class, clique,
organization or interest. 1t is for all, but
Of none. 1t will continue to praise what
is good and reprObate what is evil, taking
care that its language is to the point and
plain, beyond the possibility Of being mis-
understood. 1t is uninfuenced bv motives
that do nOt'appear on the surface: it has no
opinions to sell. save those which may be
had by any purchaser with two cents. 1t
hates injustice and rascality even more
than 1t hates unnecessary words, 1t abhOrs
fra ia
poops OF every species. 1t will continue
throughout the year 1880 to chastise the
first CLASS, instruct the second and discount
teuance the third. All honest mon, with
honest convictions, whether sound or MIS-
taken, are It's friends. And THE SUN
makes no bones VI telling the truth to its
friends and about its friends Whenever oc-
easiOn arises for plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which
year to come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no
patriotic american can afford to close his
eyes to public affairs. 1t is impossible to
exaggefate the importance OF the political
events which it has in store, or the neces-
sity Of resolute vigilance on the part of
every citizen who desires to preserve the
Government that til founders gave US.
The debates and actsHof Congress, the ut
Sofahco1 VI no Presbs tuo eAcitnB CONTESTS
OF the Republican and Democratic parties,
now nearly equal in strength throughout
the country, tie varying drift Of public
sentiment, will all bear directly and etfeot-
lively upon the twenty-fourth Presidential
election, to be held III November. Four
years ago next November the will of the
nation, as expressed at the polls, was
thwarted by an abominable conspiracy, the
promoters and beneticiaries Of which still
hold the offices they stole. Will the crime
Of 1876 be repeated in 1880? The past dec
ade of years opened with q corrupt, extrav-
agant and insolent Administration in
trenched at Washington. THE Sun did
something toward dislodging the gang and
breaking its power. the same men are
now intriguing 10 restore their leader and
themselves to places from which they were
driven by the Indignation Of the people.
Will they succeed2 Che coming year Will
bring tue answers these m0mentous
questions. THE SUA will be on hand to
chronicle the facts as they are developed,
and to exhibit them clearly and fearlessly
in heir relations to expectancy and right.
Thus, with habit OF philosophical good
humOr in looking at the minor affairs Of
Ii 0, and in great things steadfast pur-
pose to maintain the rights Of the people
and the principles of the Constitution
against all aggressors, THE Sun is pre-
pared to write truthful, instructive and
ut the same time ntertaining history of
1880.
