NEW YORK, 1883.

More people have read THE SuH du.
ring the year just now passing than
ever before since II was first printed.
No other newspaper published on this
side Of the earth has been bought and
read In any year by 50 many men and
woman.
We are credibly informed that peo-
pie buy. read, and like The Sun for
the following reasons. among Others :
Because its news columns present
In attractive form and with the
greatest possible accuracy whatever
has interest for humankind; the
events, the deeds and misdeeds, the
wisdom, the philosophy. the notable
folly, the solid sense, the improving
nOnsense-all the news Of the busiest
world 1t present revolving in space.
Bcause people have learned that In
its remafkS concerning persons and
a6ain THE Sun makes Q practice Of
telling them the exact truth to the best
Of its ability three hundred and sixty
i've days In the year, before the cleo
ton - we'll - after, about the whales
- we'll - the small fish. In the face of
dissent - plainly and fearlessly as
when supported by general approval.
The Sun has absolutely no purposes to
serve, save the information Gifts read.
ers and the furtherance Of the common
good.
Because Il IL everybody's newspaper.
No man II 20 humble that THE Sun Is
Indifferent to his welfare and his
rights. No man II % rich that Il can
allow injustice to be done him. No
man. no association of men, Is power
full enough to be exempt from the
strict application Of its principles Of
right and wrong.
Because In politics 1t has fought for
. dozen years, without intermission
and sometimes almost alone among
newspapers, the fight that has resulted
In the recent overwhelming popular
honest Government No matter what
party Is In power, THE Sun stands
and will continue Ia stand like rock
for the interests Of the people against
the ambition of bosses, the encroach-
ments Of monopOlists, and the dishon-
est schemes Of 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 published. because
its Christianity is undiluted with
cant. Another holds that il is the
best Republican newspaper printed.
because II has already whipped half Of
the rascals out of that party. aud is
proceeded against the other half with
un,liminished vigor. A third believes
Ii to be the best magazine Of general
literature in existence. because its
readers miss nothing worthy Of notice
that il 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 1888 IL is q little
better than ever before. II you do not
already know THE Sun, you will find
1t to be mirror of all human activity.
