attack several times during the night;
at o'clock this morning entire lines en-
gagged; all attacks repulsed; at day
break adyanced against insurgents and
have driven them beyond the lines they
formerly occupied, capturing several
villages and their defense works; insur-
gent loss in dead and wounded large;
our OWE casualties thus far are estimat-
I'D at 175, very few fatal
Troops enthusiastic and acting fear
1essly. Navy did splendid execution on
fanks of enemy: city held in check and

them, DO SO at once. and further
that all persons using lots in the
future pay at least five dollars for
the same, and receive in return
deed to said lot. No deed should
be given for any lot until the money
has been paid, and no lot should
be considered the private lot of
any one unless the party so claim
ing holds a receipt for the same.
There should be house erected
on the cemetery grounds and a
keeper placed there who will sup
erintend under you these grounds
and see that everything is kept in
proper order
BURIAL CERTIFICATES.
also recommend that in this
connection you have printed
blank burial certificates which
should show the age, sex and cause
of death in each case, aud by or
dinance require the attending ply
sician TO fill out and sign the same
before burial. A penalty should
also be provided applicable to ply
sicians who may refuse to sign the
certificate at the proper time.
CITY PHYSICIAN.
1t seems to me that it would be
wise for you to appoint a city ply
sician, whose duty it would be to
render such advice and assistance
as might be necessary to the sani-
tary committee, and to attend such
other duties as the council might
from time to time see fit to require
of him.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1899-04-30
TAXATION.

On the subject of taxation |
would recommend that you place
the tax at a rate which will not
prove burdensome to the people
and at the same time be sufficient
to meet the real demands.
1t is my opinion that the rate
should not exceed one per cent
and if three-quarters of one per
cent be found sufficient to meet all
demands, then so much the better.
THE WATER QUESTION.
This question should be discuss
ed at an early date and some action
taken whereby the city may be pro-
vided with a plentiful supply of
water, at least for street and fire
purposes at an early date. The
comfort and safety of the city will
largely depend on prompt action
in this matter.
