THE SUN.
1888. NEW YORK. 1882.

More people have read THE SUN during
the year just now passing than ever before
since it was first printed. No other news
paper published on this side OF the earth has
been bought and read in any year by SO many
men and women.
We are cretlibly informed that people buy,
read, and like The SUN for the following
reasons, among others:
Because its news columns present in at
tractive form and with the greatest possible
accuracy whatever has interest for mankind /;
the events, the deeds and misdeeds, the wis.
dom, the philosophy, the notable folly, the
solid sense, the improving nonsense-all the
news OF the busiest world at present revolv.
ing in space.
Because people have learned that in its
remarks concerning persons and affairs THE
SUN makes practice Of telling them the
exact truth to the best of lite ability three
hundred and sixty five days in the year, be-
fore election just as well as after, about the
whales as well as the small fish, in the face
of dissent as plainly and fearlessly as when
supported by general approval THE SUN
has absolutely no purposes to serve, save
the information OF its readers and the further
ance Of the common good.
Because it is everybody's newspaper No

rich that it can allow injustice to be done.
| No man, no association OF men. is powerful
enough to be exempt from the strict applica-
cation of its principles of right and wrong.
| Becaue in politics it has fought for dozen
years, without intermission and sometimes
almost alone among newspapers, the fight
that has resulted in the recent overwhelming
popular verdict against Robesonism and for
| honest government. No matter what party
| is in power, THE SUN stands and will con-
| tinue to stand like a rock for the interests OF
! the people against the ambition of BOSSES
| the entertainments of monopolists, and dis
honest schemes o. public robbers.
| All this is what we are told almost daily

SUN is the best religious newspaper ever pub.
lished, because its Christianity is undiluted
with cant. Another holds that il Is the best
Republican newspaper printed, because il
has already whipped half of the rascals out
| of that party, and is proceeding against the
other half with undiminished vigor. A third
believes it to be the best magazine of gen
eral literature in existence, because its read
| ers miss nothing worthy of notice that is
current in the world of thought. So every
| friend of THE Sun discovers one Of its many
sides that appeals with particular force to his
| individual liking.
II you already know THE SUN, you will
observe that in 1883 it is little better than
ever before. II you do not already know
THE SUN, you will find it to be a mirrar o.
