The Local Ministers Conference was held

were elected for the ensuing year: John

Conference will be held at Rutherford

An idiotic looking fellow who wore "a
dog ear," collar and" "store clothes" reques
ted us to pub'ish his name in our r papr.
We think that it would be of no interest to
the readers of tho DtADi to see th- . name
of such an upstart, therefore we decline.
Taking this fellow as a sample of mankind
we would be led to believe that Darwin's
thuory; that man descended from the mon
key, was correct as he has a decided apeish
dook, but he contradicts. Prof. Agassis'
theory that fish is a great braia food as
this fellow has eaten fish till he looks scaly,

Thx Sun will deal with the events of the
year 1 880 in its own fashion, now pretty
well understood by everybody. From Jan
uary 1 until December 31 it will be con

shape the ah ape that will enable its read
ers to keep well abreast of thead with the
ljast unproductive expenditure of tim e.
The srreatest interisf to the greatest num
ber that is the law controling its daily
make-up. It ii"w has a circulation v.-ry
much larger than that of ally other .imer

columns, for they keep on buying aad

In its cummcnts on men and affairs, tha
Sun believe thit the only g.iide of policy
should b common sense, inspire 1 by gen
uine American principles and backed by
honesty of purpose. For the reason it is,
and will cont nuto be, absolutely iudpn-

possibility ot being misun.ierstOaa( It is
uninfluenced by motives that do not appear
on the surface; it has no opinions to sell,
save thos which may be had by any pur
chaser with wo cents. It hates injustice
and rascality even more than it hates un
necessary words. It abhors frauds, pities
fools, and deplores niutompoops of every
speciss. It will continue throughout the
year 1880 to chastise the first class, ins trust
the second, and discountenance the third.
411 honest men. with honest convictions,
whether sound or mistaken, are its friends.
And the Sun makes no bones of telling the
truth to its friends and about its frieu Is
whenever occasion arises for plain speaking .
These are the principles upon which the
Sun will be conducted during the year to
come.
The year 1880 will be one in which no
patriotic American can fford to close his
eyes to public affairs. It is impossible to
exaggerate the importance of th i political
events which it has in store, or the neces
sity of resolute vigilance on the part of
every citizen who oesires to preserve the
Government that the . founders gave us.
The debates and acts of Congress, the utter
ances of the press, the exciting contests of
the Republican and Democratic parties
now nearly equal in strength throughout
the country, the varying drift of public
sentiment, will all bear directly and effec
tively apon the twenty-fourth Presidential
