and knowledge of the Board of Alder
men of Jersey City that the East Jersey

tto LIN O1R01 N-@I@
station and intake at Little Falls, and
laying pipes preparatory to diverting and
approprfating the water of the PasSaic
River to its own private use for COM
mercial purposes, thereby diminishing the
flow of said river; and that said com
pany proposes by this proceeding to take
possession OF this excellent and enormous
supply in order to acquire permanent
control thereof and by the exercise of
such control to make 1t impossible for
the population Of that section of the State
from the Passaic River or its tributaries
to obtain such supply otherwise than by
purchase from said company; and
Whereas, The said proposed diversion
of water by the East Jersey Water Com
pany is not only an usurpation of the
public right in said river and its tribu-
taries. and a violation of the rights of
this city as a riparian owner, and of
other riparian owners on the PasSaic
River below the said intake at Little
Falls. but is also an infringement of the
property and other rights in the said
river granted to Jersey City by an act
of the Legislature in the year 1852, en-
titled IAN act to authorize the c%onstruc-
ton of water works for supplying Jersey
City and places adjacent with pure and
wholesome water; therefore De it
Resolved. That it is the opinion of the
Board of Aldermen that the time has ar
rived for the city authorities to assert
and maintain the rights of Jersey City in
the Passaic River, and hat the said East
Jersey Water Company is hereby notified
that they will not be allowed to acquire
rights of any kind in the said stream adj
versely to the interests of Jersey City,and
that the City Clerk is hereby directed to
notify said company of the action of this
