THE SUN FOR 1880.

/ Tax srN will deal with the events of the
/ year 1871 IN It's own fashion, nowspretty well
Understood by everybody. From January /
until December 81 it will BE- conducted as a

Snd printed for the people.
/ As newspaper, THE SUS believes in getting

sentag 1t in the most Ineligible shapc-the
shape that will enable its readers to keep we'll

In its comments on men and affairs, THIS
SuN believes that the only guide of policy
should be common sense, inspired by genuine
American principles aud backed by honesty
OF purpose. For this reason il Is, aud viii

party class, clique, organization, or interest
IL Is for ALL but OF none. 1t will continue to
praise what is good and reptobate what is
point and plain, beyond thu possibility of
being misunderstood, II is uninhuenced BY
modyes 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 Ii

IL hates unnecessary words Ii abhors frauds

every species. IL will continue throughout
the year 1880 TO chastise the frst-class instruct

honest men, with honest convictions, whether
sound or mistaken, are its friends. And THE
sun makes no bones of telling the truth TO It's
friends and about its friends whenever ocoa.
sion arises for plain speaking.
These are the principles upon which THE
Sun will be Q nducted during the year to
come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no patri-
otto American can afford to close his eyes TO
public affairs, il is impossible to exaggerate
the Importance OF political events which IL
has in store, or the necessity Of resolute vigil
ance on the part Of every citizen who desires
TO preserve the Government that the founders
gave us. The debates and acts OF Congress,
the utterances of the press, the exciting con-
tests Of the Republican and Democratic par
ties, now nearly equal in strength throughout
the country the varying drift Of public sem
timent, will all bear directly and effectively

thing toward disloding the gang and breaking

places from which they were driven by the
indignation of the people. Will they sue
coed The coming year will bring the
answers to these momentous questions The
Sun will be on hand to chronicle the facts ms
they are aeysllafsd and to exhibit them clear
ly and fearlessly in their relations to expedi-
ency and right.
Thus with habit of philosophical good
humor in looking at the minor affairs Of lie,
and in great things a steadfast purpose to
maintain the rights of the people and the
principles of the Constitution against all ag-
gressors, The SUN is prepared TO write n
a truthful, instructive, and at the same time
entertaining history of 1880.
