THE SUN FOR ISSi.

Everybody reads THE SUN. In the editions
~ of this newspaper throughout the yeau
to come everybody will find:
L. All the world 3 news, 80 presented that
the readers will get the greatest amount Of
information with tue least uaprofitabe expen-
dIture of time and eye-sight. Ths Sun long.
ago discovered the golden mean between re-
dundant fulness and unsatisfactory brevity.
H. Much OF that sort OF news which lie.
ponds less upon its recognized Importance
than upon its interest to mankind. From
morning 10 morning The Sun prints eontinu-
ed story OF the lives of real men and women,
and OF their Deeds. plans, loves, hates, and
troubles. This story is more varied and more
interesting than any romance that was ever
devised.
III. Good writing in every column, and
freshness, originality, accuracy, and decOruna
i'll the treatment Of every subject.
Nv. Honest ceinment. The Suns habit IL
to speak out fearlessy abeut men and things.
V. Equal cander in dealing with each pc.
iitical party, and equal readiness to commend
blamable in Democrat or Republican.
vi. Absolute Independence of partisan or
CARNATIONS, but unwavering loyalty TO- true
Democratic principles. The Sun believes thut
the Government which the Constitution gives
us is good one to keep. Its notion of duty is
TO resist to Its utmost power the efforts of men
in the Republican party to set up another form
OF government in place of that which exists.
The year 1881 and the years immediately fol-
lowing will probably decide this supremely
Important contest. The Sun believes that tho
victory will be with the people as against tho
Rings for monopoly, the Rings for plunser, and
the rings for imperial power.

For the Daily Sun, fOurpage sheet of %

Reflections on Trade Matters.

Following up our article of last
week, relative to the vast improve.
ment, within the past few years, in
the business and business prospects
OF Bellevue, we remark now, touch
ing upon another branch of this sub
Ject, that We have large field for
business enterprise in our midst. IF
we scan the commercial world we
are struck with the fact that those
who occupy pre-eminent positions
have almost invariably reached the
heights only by a close and con-
tinuous application of the rules of
honor-strict and minute honesty
impartiality and intelligent energy
IN the prosecution of their several
lines of business. 1t is folly to talk
OF the chances that have occurred
to some men as the sole cause of
their fortune. The success Law in
their Selling the chance and using
it intelligently. Not location, but
mind; not only mind, but energy;
not only energy, but honorable con.
sideration for both buyer and seller,
make the successful merchant. Let
the citizen know that he can abso-
lutely rely on the dealer and he has
formed connection that will remain
intact as long as the conditions of
formation are changed.
We are glad to say that these
words of ours are, by reason of the
facts, applicable to many of our fell
low citizens as truthful compliments.
Yet, We urge on all the duty of be.
ing ready to use and foster this Nile
rising OF business which promises
to make our town and section fruit.
full and powerful center of trade.
