SEVERAL parties have taken water as
furnished by the main laid by the Southern
Pacific railroad. Each person furnishes
their own pipes and fixtures, and pays So
per month in advance. This will give
quite little revenue to the company for,
having to fill their tank daily, the cost is
only that of running their pump while
longer. Judge Alexander, Mr.. Fitzgerald
and Mr.. Finlay have already introduced
the water to their premises. The Company
is not bound for constant supply Of water
and have no liability in case they choose
to stop it for a day or two We trust no
one will be so daring as to complain, they
may stop the water supply to all, as they
closed the bridge to every body because
some one complained Of being delayed by
the trains.
