This issue cléses the’ first year of of the Sun’s existence. We believe that we can say without fear of con- tradiction and with no undue self praize that the success of the Damy Sun daring its first year has been phenomenal in every respect. Its publication having been began in the heat of a political campaign, it was for some time considered by the pub- fic to be merely a campaign docu- ment, Jt was compelled to live down this idea and also to demonstrate that it was mot an imposstbility for a Republican paper to be a success in Paducah, The Swn is, however, a year old. All the obstacles put im its way by enterprising contemporaries bave been overcome, and now the permsnency ot the Dairy fon is fully recoguized by the public. Within this first year the Sun has built op abome advertising patronage unsurpessed and not even equaled by any paper in this city, We have every reason to beliese that our cir culation is the largest of any daily in Paducah, The Sew is the only pa- por in this city that has the courage to publish its actual circulation. In view of this fact and in view of our large circulation we unbesitatingly claim the largest circulation and shal! continue to do s0;*until this elain 1s disproved by the sworn affidavit of some other paper in this city. $B lhe success of the Sun is due to three facts: First.

While, however, suecess has crowned our efforts and the situation wblishment of the ScN, it is nevertheless most emphat- ically true that the great measure of success which has been meted out to the Sew is due to the liberality of the people of Paducah, Without regard to the political lines, the merchants o!

Therefore we take this means to convey to the citizens of Paducah our debt of gratitude for the liberal patronage that has been extended to us, for the encouragement that has been given us, and for the many ways in which the popular apprecia- tion of the Sun has been made known to us IN DL SEASON, “Can the Paducah Sun prove that Mr. Bryan is speaking for $1,500 a night?
