THE SUN /faH EfN a
The S,sn for 1882 VIII make its fifteenth
annual revolution under the present manage
ment, shining as always, for all, big and
little, mean and gracious, eontented and
unhappy, Republican and Democratic,
depraved and virtuous, intelligent and
obbIse. The Sui's light is for mankind aud
womankind of every sort but it, genial
warmth Is for the good, while it pOuFs hot
discomfort on the blistering backs Of the
persistently wicked.
The Sun of 1868 was a newspaper Of a new
kind. II discarded many Of the forms and a
multitude of the superiluous words and
phrases Of ancient Journalism. IL undertook
toifeport IN a fresh, succinct unconventional
way all the news of the world, Omitting no
event Of human interest, and commenting
upon affairs with the fearlessness Of absolute
independence The success Of this expert
ment was the success of The Sun. Itefiected
a permanent change in the style of American
newspapers. Every important journal
established in this country in the dozen
| years past has been modelled after The San.
4 Every important journal already existing has
been modified and battered by the force Of
| The Suns example.
The lSuh of1SS2wlllbe be thesame outspoken,
truth-telling and Interesting newspaper.
| By liberh pee Of the means which an
abundant Eaosperity affords, we shall make
| il better Than ever before. We shall print all
the news, putting Il Into readable shape, and
measuring its Importance, not by the
traditional yaxdgfiek, but by It's real interest
to the people. Distance from Printing House
square is not the first consideration with
The San. Whenever anything happens worth
reporting We get the particulars, whether It
happens IN Brooklyn or Bokhara.
In politics we have decided opinions; and
we are accustomed TO express them IN
language that can'be understood. We say
what we think about men and events. That
habit is the only secret Of The SIMS political
course.
The Weekly Sni gathers into eight pages
the best matter of the seven daily issues. An
Agricultural Department OF unequalled
merit, null market reports, and liberal
!, proportion ofIiterary, scientific and domestic
Intelligence complete the Weekly Se,t, and
MAKE Il the best newspaper for the farmers
household that was ever printed.
