FOR
1889
AND FOR THE DEMOCRACY.
The Sun believes that the campaign for
the election of a Democratic Congress in 1890
and a Democratic President in 1892 should
begin on or about the fourth of next March.
The Sun will be on hand at the beginning
and until the end of the most interesting
and important political conflict since tne
war, doing its honest utmost, as ever, to se-
cure the triumph of the Democrat# party
and the permanent supremacy of the prin-
ciples held by Jefferson, Jackson and Tilden.
The great fact of the year is the return to
absolute power of the common enemy of all
good Democrats—the political organization
for whose overthrow The Sun fought at the
front for fifteen years, the memorable years
of Grant and the Fraud Hayes, and Garfield
and Arthur.
it is the same old enemy that Democrats
now confront, and he will be intrenched in
the same strong position. It has been car-
ried once by brave and hopeful fighting. Do
you not believe with The Sun that the
thing can be done again? Wait and seel
The hope of the Democracy is in the loyal
efforts of a united press, cherishing no me-
mories of past differences in non-essentials,
forgetting everything but the lessons of ex-
perience, and that victory is a duty.
Probably you know The Sun already as a
newspaper which gets all the news and
prints it in incomparably interestingjshape;
which chronicles facts as they occur andtells
the truth about men and events with ab-
solute fearlessness, making the completest
and most entertaining journal pub’ished on
earth; and which sells its opinions only to
its subscribers and purchasers at two cents a
copy—on Sundays four cents. If you do not
know The Sun, send for it and learn what a
wonderlul thing it is to be in the sunshine.
