1'iir Controller.
Tho friends of Mr. M. H. Master, of Shen
andoah, are laying strong claims for his nomi
nation lor County Controller, and theio is
no doubt from a political point of view, .Mr
Master is entitled to the nomination without!
contest, lie was unanimously nominated
three years ago, and made a very cauditahle
light against gieat odds. Tho legality of tlie
law ci rating tlio ollico was then being con
sidered by the Supremo Court which made it
anything lint pleasant for him to enter Into
an extensive contest, and his opponent, Mr
Severn, having been elected by an over
whelming majority over bis previous Demo
cratic opponent, and then being ousted out of
olhco by reason of tho illegality of tho ollico,
created sympathy for him, nnd yet, with all
thobo odds against him, Mr. Master camo
within a few hundred votes of being elected
thus undoubtedly proving his popularity, hut
lie took his defeat like a man, and without a
murmur or lukewarmness helped to wage the
battles for tho Democracy since, and now as
he has patiently waited his turn, Ids many
friends have no doubt that tho Democratic
party will follow her honoiablo customs, and
give Mr. Master tho nomination samo as
otheis get, and give him a fair chance to cou
test at the coming I'all election for tho ollico
which is now fully established, and for
which bo made many sacrifices. Chronicle,

such good cll'ect that tho physician felt justi-
eeci iu retiring. At 11:10 o'clock tho attack
suddenly increised in cll'ect and tho patient
succumbed.

Former Captain General of the Philippines
Declares "the American Rag Shall
Never Float Over Manila."
Mnilrld, Hay 2S. In tho senate yes
terday Mmslinl Prlmo do Itlvera, for
mer cnptnln general of tlio Philippines,
defended his administration of tho col
ony, tfo unid lie could not bollovo Ills
ears when he was told of tlio dlsnstor
nt Cavite, lidding: "That rag called the
American flag slmll never float over
tho walls of Manila. Tho Philippines,"
he continued, "had" not had adequate
means of defense." lie had appealed
to tho government to supply them, but
tho government answered that tho
pono had intervened and there was no
fear of a rupture. Tlio naval commit
tee at Manila examined into the posi
tion carefully and reached tho conclu
sion that It was quite impossible to of
fer battlu to tho American squadron,
"The Yankees are deceiving them
selves," Marshal de Hlvcra declared,
"as to tho situation at tho Philippines.
It is absolutely impossible that thoy
should become masters of tlie islands,
for the natives, to un immense ma
jority, are determined to defend tho
territory to tin' last and to maintain
Spanish sovereignty."
Captain Aunon, minister of marine,
' said it wes inopportune to discuss tho
war nl present. He had neither np
pioval nor disapproval to express ot
Marshal de Hlvera's administration,
hut ho considered it necessary to exer
cise a certain reserve in tho interest ot
the country.
In tho chamber of deputies Senor
Itomoro Glron, the minister of tho col
onies, replying to questions respecting
tho authorization given the governor
of tho Philippines to concede adminis
trative reforms, said Captain General
Augusti had been authorized to act in
tlio manner ho doomed most desirable
to draw tho natives to tlio Spanish side.
