sion arises for plain speaking,
These are the principles upon which THg
Sun will be nducted during the year to
come.
The year 1880 win be one in which no patri.
otto American can afford to close his eyes to
public affairs, Il is impossible to exaggerate
tho 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
-pon the twenty-iourth Presidential election,
to be held in November. Four Tears ago next
November the will ofthe nation, as expressed
az the polls, was thwarted by an ahominahc
conspiracy, the promoters and bcnehciaries OF
which still hold the Offices they stole Will
the crime Of 1876 b. repeated in 1882 The

thing toward dsloding the gang and breaking

to restore their leader and themselves I,

Thus with a habit of philosophical good

and in great things a steadfast purpose tC

principles of the Constitution against all ag-
gressors, The suN is prepared TO write 0
