NEW YORK, 1888.

More people have read THE Sun during the
year lust now passing then ever before since II
was first printed. No other newsTaper pup
lished on this side of the earth has been
bougbt and read in any year by so many men
and women.
We are credlbly informed that people buy,
read. and like THE SUN for the following
reasons, among others:
Because its news columns present In attrac-
tive form and with the greatest possible ac-
curacy whatever has interest for humankind
the events, the deeds and misdeeds the wisdom,
the philosophy, the notable folly, the sono
sense, the improving nonsense-ail the news Oh
the busiest world at present revolving In space.
Because people have learned that In It's re-
marks concerning persons and affairs THE Sun
makes a practice of telling them the exact
truth . the best of its ability three hundred
and sixty Eve days in the year, before election
as well as after, about the whales as well as
about 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 furtherance or the common
good.
Because it is everybody's newspaper. No
man is SO humble that The sun is Indifferent
| to his welfare and his rights. No man is SO
| rich that it can allow injustice to be done him.
| No man. no association of men, Is powerful
| enough to be exempt from the strict application
| of its principles of right and wrong.
| Because In politics 1t mas IougnI Ior u uozen
| years, without intermission and sometimes
almost alone among newspapers, the fight that
/ has resulted In the recent overwhelming popu-
/ lar verdict against Robesonism and Tor honest
/ government, No matter what party Is in
| power, THE SUN stands and will continue to
stand like q rock for the interests OF the people
| against the ambition OF bosses, the encroach-
| ments of monopolists, and the dishonest
schemes of public robbers.
| All this Is what we are told almost daily oy
| our friends. One man holds that Tue suN is
| the best religious newspaper ever puollsheo'
| because its Christianity is undiluted with can't
| Another holds that it is the best Republican
| newspaper printed, because II has already
/ whipped half the rascals out OF that party, and
| is proceeding against the other half with undi-
| minished vigor, third believes 1t to be the
best magazine of general literature in existence,
| because its readers miss nothing worthy oil
i notice that is current in the world of thought.
| So every friend of TIE Sun discovers one OF its
many sides that appeals with particular force to
| his individual liking.
II you alreads know The SUN, you will OBJ
serve that in 1888 it is little better than ever
| before If you do not already know The sun,
| you will find it to be O mirror OF all human
| activity, a storehouse OF the choicest producta
| of common sense and imagination, mainstay
| for the cause OF honest government sentinel
| for genuine Jeffersenian Democracy, a scourage
| for wickedness of every species, and an uncom'
/ monty good investment for tie coming year.
