The Indianapolis leader. (Indianapolis, Ind.) 1879-1890, 1880-05-22
THE SUN FOR 1880.

THE SUN will deal with the events Of the year 1886
10 its own fashion, now pretty we'll understood by
everybody. From January until December 81 il
will be conducted a newspaper, written in the En-
lish language, and printed for the people.
As newspaper, the Sun believes getting all the
news OF the world promptly, and presenting IL in the
most ineligible shape-the shape that will enable it's
readers to keep we'll abreast Of the age with the
nproductive expenditure Of the time. The greatest
interest to the greatest is the law
trolling its daily makeup. 1t now has a circulation
very much larger than that of any other American
times prepared to spend literally for the benefit Of its
readers People of all conditions of life aud all ways
Of thinking buy and read The SUM- and they all de-
rive satisfaction of sort from IL columns for
they keep on buying and reading il.
In its comment on men and affairs, The SUN be-
leves that the only guide Of policy should be
and backed by honesty of purpose. Fer this reason
IL is and will continue be- absolutely independen
OF part class, clique, organization, or interest IL
Is Tor Gil, but OF none. II will continue to praise
what is good and reprobstes what is evil taking
that its language is to the point and plain, beyond
the possibility Of being misunderstood. 1t Is unin
nueuced by motives that do not appear the Bur
face. IL has opinion to SELL those which may
be had by any purchaser for two cents 1t hates in
justice and rascality than ii hates unnec-
essary words. 1t abhors frauds pites FOOLS and de-
plores nincompoops of every species 1t will
tnue throughout the year 1880 to chastise the first
class, instruct the second, and discountenance the
third. All honest convictions, whether sound mis-
taken, are it's friends. And THE sun makes no bones
OF telling the truth to it's friends and about its
friends whenever occasion arises for plain speaking
These are the principles upon which the THE sun
will be conducted during the year to come.
The year 1850 will be one in which no patriotic
American afford to close his eyes to public af-
fairs. 1t is impossible exaggerae the import
Of the political events which IL has in store the
necessity of resoute vigilance the part Of every

gress the utterances Of the press, tle exciting
tests of the Republican and Democratic parties,
nearly equal in strength thrc ughout the country
~ a hear
directly and effectively upon the twenty fourth
Presidential election to be held in November. -Four
years ago next November the will Of the nation,
expressed at the polls, thwarted by abomni-
able conspiracy, the promoters and benefciaries Of
which still hold the offices they stole. will the crime
Of 1876 be repeated in 1880? The past decade Of
opened with corrupt, extravagant, and insolent
Administration intrenched at Washington. The sun
did something towards dslodging the gang and break
ing its power. The same men are now intriguing to
restore their leader and themselves to places from
which they were driven be the Indignation of the
people Will they succeed, The coming years will
bring the answers to these momentous questions.
The Sun will be on hand to chronicle the facts as
they developed, and to exhibit them clearly and
fearlessly In their relations to expectancy and
right.
Thus, with a habit Of philosophical good humor in
looking at the minor affairs of life, and in great
things steadfast purpose to maintain the rights Of
the people and the principles of the Constitution
against all aggressors THE Sun is prepared to write
q truthful instructive, and at the same time enter
tanning history of 1880
