THE SUN FM 1879
THE SUN will be printed every day du
riug the proneut year. Its purpose and metli
od will be the same as in the past: lo
sent all the news in a readable shape, and to
tell the truth though tiro heavens fall
Tun Son has been. i«.aud will con»

The Sun is the newspaper tor the people
It is not for the rich man against the poor

but it seeks to do equal rostica to all interests
in the community. It u» not tiro organ of
any person, class, sect or party. There need
be no mystery about its love aud hares. It is
lor the honest man against the rogues every
time. It is for the honest democrat against
the dishonest republican, and for the boncst
republican against the dishonest democrat.
It does not take its one irunr the utterances
of any politician or political organization. It
gives its support unreservedly when men or
measures are in agreement with the consti
tution and the principles upon which this
republic was founded tor the people. When
ever tbe constiiatiou and constitutional prin
ciples are violated—as in the outrageous con
spiracy of 1876. by which a man not elected
was placed in the president's office, where li t
still remains—it Hpeaks out for the right
