- about men and things, and some people
don't; but everybody likes to get hold of the
newspaper which is never dull and never
afraid to speak its mind
Democrats know that for twenty years The
Sun has fought in the front line for Democratic
principles, never wavering or weakening in its
loyalty to the true interests of the party it
serves with fearless intelligence and disinter-
ested vigOr. At times opinions have differed

common purpose: it is not The Suns fault if it
has seen further into the milestone.
Eighteen hundred and ninety-one will be a
great year in American politics, aud everybody
should read The Sun.
