The Sun.
NEW YORK. 1888.

More people have read TIE SUN during the
year just now passing than ever before since
it was first printed. No other newspaper pub
lished on this side of the earth has been
bought and read in any year by so many men
We are credibly informed that people buy,
read and like The sun for the following reas-
Ons, 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 mi$deeds, the wis
dom, the philosophy, the notable folly. the
solid sense, the improving nonsense-au the
news Of the busiest world at present revolv-
Because people have learned that in its re-
marks concerning persons and alta rs THE
SUN makes practice OF telling them the ex-
act truth to the best of its ability three hum
dred and sixt, five days in the year, before
election as we'll as after. about the whales as
well as about the small fish, in the face OF dis
sent as plainly and tearlessly us when supper
lutely no purposes to serve, save the illfor-
nation of its readers and the furtherance of
the common good.
Because il 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 pow
erful enough to be exempt from the strict ape
plication OF its principles Ut right and wrong.
Because in politics it has fought for dozen
years without intermisSiOn and sometimes al.
most alone among newspapers, the fight that
has resulted in the recent overwhelming pop
ular verdict against kobesonism and for non.
est government. No matter what party is in
power, The sun stands and will continue to
stand like ROCK for the interests of the peo-
pie against the ambition of bosses, the en-
croachments of monopoliSts, and the dlshon-
est schemes of public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily by
our friends. One man holds that The SUN is
tbs best religious newspaper ever published,
because its Christianity is undiluted with
cant. Another holds that it IS the best RepuO-
lean newspaper printed, because it has al
ready whipped half of the rascals out of that
party, and is proceeding against the other
half with undiminished vigOr. Il third be-
lieves it to be the best magazine Of general lit
erature in existence, because its readers 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 in-
dividual liking.
If you already know The SUN, you observe
that in 1885 it is a little better than ever be-
fore. If you do not already know HE SUN,
you will find it to be a mirror of all human
activity, a storehouse of the choicest products
of common sense and imagination, a main
stay for the cause of honest government, a
sentinel for genuine Jeffersonian Democracy,
scourRe for wickedness of every species,
and an uncommonly good investment for the
coming year.

THEY say Nillson will not sing "Swanee
River" any more, and that Patti recently
sang Sweet Home" in such manner as to
transport every listener into an ecstacy Of
delight. The critics and managers are not
in favor of these musical artists singing
these beloved home melodies. Why do
these old songs have such power over an
audience? Simply because the sentiment
is really and perfectly understood, and the
simple, loving words speak directly to
every heart

A BILL has been introduced in the Leg
islature to reduce the rate of interest on
sums due on school lands from to per
cent. The judiciary committee has re-
ported favorably on the bill. and it is
probable it will become law. Five per
cent. is high enough for 30-year loans.

A RAILROAD Black List" has been
published recently, containing names of
editors, members Of the legislature, and
others, who have abused the privileges
and courtesies bestowed upon them, by
selling or attempting to sell non-transfer
able passes. We are glad that the list
does not contain the name of any Austin
editor, and sorry that it does contain the
names of several Minnesota editors. We
hope this expose Of petty swindling on
the part of some Of the editorial fratern-
ity will have wholesome and purifying
effect. We believe it to be just as wrong
to cheat a corporation as an individual,
and a contract is just as binding if
made with one as with the other.

WILLIAMSBURG, once the seat of the
learning, wealth, fashion. and social posi-
ton of Virginia. seems to be fast going
to decay. The college has entirely gone
down. Last year there was only one stu.
dent-this year none. The president had
a splendid residence just out of town and
the buildings are quiet and lonely looking
and seem to hide within their walls much
of wisdom, but this is all that is left of
the once proud seat of learning, William

Il HAD rather speak five words with
my understanding than ten
thousand words in an unknown tongue. "
We take it that the object of county
paper is to give county news. We there
fore endeavor to confine ourself, in our
editorial writing, to matters that pertain
strictly to affairs in which our flock is
interested; not of the worlds news, be-
cause that is more fully discussed in the
worlds metropolitan papers, but for news
local, Of which the worlds papers wot
not. And this writing in little country
paper, on the management of Egyptian
affairs, or on England and Russia's latest
questions for instance, reminds US very
much of the speaking in unknown ton
CUES which the editor Of the epistle 50
pointedly condemns. 1t may be said that
it is harmless. True, but what . waste
Of valuable time. These country editors
feel that every day they must take up
their cross and write something. Know
ing nothing Of local interest. they read
and steal and rehash some stuff, the mean
ing of which is lost even to themselves;
and the reading Of which simply wears
out the muscles Of the brain-so to speak.
We could do that way too. But We
don't. 1t takes as much wisdom to know
when to keep still As when and what to
speak. We would rather speak five
words on local topic, in which al Now
er county is interested, than ten thousand
words in the unknown tongue Of frothy
editorials on European affairs. But to do
this, and keep our friends advised Of the
doings Of the people Of this county, We
must have = little help. We are willing
70 buy-we are willing to beg-our readers
to send us local news. None are more
welcome to our Office than those who
bring Us news items. Give US the facts
that Il all We want personally, By mail,
