THE SUN FOR 1880.

TIE SUN will deal with the events Of the
year 1880 I'm its own fashion, now pretty we'll
understood by everybody. From January
until December 81 1t will be conducted as a
newspaper written In the English language
and printed for the whole people.
As q newspaper, THE SUN believes In yet
ting all the news Of tho world promptly, aud
presenting II in the most intelligihle Shape
The shaBe that will enable its readers to Keep
well abreast Of the age with the least unpro-
ductive expenditure Of time. The greatest
interest to the greatest number-that Is the
law controlling its daily makeup. 1t now
has circulation very much larger than that
of any other American newspaper and enjoys
an income which It is at all times prepared TO
spend literally for the heneft Ofits readers.
People of oil conditions Of life and all ways of
thinking buy and read The SUM and they
all derive satisfaction of some sort from its
columns, for they keep on buying and read
ing It.
In its comments on men and affairs, THE
SUN believes that the only guide of policy
should be cOmman sense, inspired by genuine
American principles and backed by honesty
of purpose. For this reason II is and will con
tinue to be absolutely Independent Of party,
class, clique, organization, or interest. 1t is
for all, but ofnOne. 1t will continue to praise
what is good and reprODate what is evil TAX
ing care that Its language is to the point and
plain beyond the possibility of being misun-
derstoOd. 1t is uninhuenced by motives that
do not appear on the surface; 1t has no Opin-
ions to sell, save those which may be had by
any purchaser with two cents. Ii hates in
Justice and rascality even more than It hates
unnecessary words 1t abhOrs frauds, pities
fools, and nincOmpoops of every species 1t
will continue throughout the year 1880 to
chaSttse the first class instruct the second md
discountenance the third. All honest men,
l. with honest convictions, whether sound or
mistaken, are its friends. And THE sun
makes no bones of telling the truth to its
friends and about its friends whenever occa-
sion arises for plain speaking.
Il tal uNtru
| sun will be conducted during the year to
come.
The year 1880 will he one in which no patri.
otto American can afford to close his eyes tC
| public affairs. IL is impossible to eXaggerate
the importance of the political events which
II has in store, or the necessity of resOlute Wig
ilance 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 senti.
ment, will all bear directly and effectively upon
the nty-fOurth Presidential election, to be
held in November. Four years ago next No
Vember. the will Ofthe nation, as expressed at
the polls, was thwaTted by an abominable con.
spiracy. the promoters and benehciaries Of
which still hold the offices they stole. VIII
the CRIME of 1876 be repeated in 1850? The
past decade OF years opened with a corrupt
! extravagant, and insOlent Administration in.
trcnched at Washington. THE SUN did some.
thing toward dislodgng the gang and break
ing its power. he same men are now in.
triguing to restore their leader and them.
selves to places from which they were driven
by the Indignation of the people. VIII they
succeed? The coming year will bring the
answers TO these mOmeDtous questions THE
| SUN will be on hand to chronicle the facts IS
they are developed, and to exhibit them clear
ly and fearlessly in their relations to expedi-
ency and right.
Thus, with n habit of philosophical good
humOr in looking at the minor affairs of life,
and in great things a steadfaSt purpose to
maintain the rights of the people and the
principles of the Constitution against all ag-
gressors, lHE sun is prepared to write Il
truthful, instructive, and entertaining history
OF 1880.
