THE SUN.
1888. NE w YORK. 1888.

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 credibly 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 a practice of telling them the
exact truth to the best of tie ability three
hundred and sixty five days in the year, be-
fore election just as well as after, about the
whales as we'll 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
man is so humble that THE SUN is indiffernt
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.
Becauc in politics it has fought for dozen
years, without intermssion 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.
tinuc TO stand like a rock for the interests OF
the people against the ambition of bosses,
the encroachments of monopolists, and dis
honest schemes o. public robbers.
All this is what we are told almost daily
by our friends One man holds that THE
SUN is the best religious newspaper ever pub
lished, because its Christianity is undluted
with cant. Another holds that it Is the best
Republican newspaper printed, because it
has already whipped half Of the rascals out
of that party, and is proceeding against the
other halt with undiminished vigor. 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 mirrar OF
