in a letter to Carl +. KEGS, of the citi-
ems committee of Irvington, urges the

be limited to the length Of contract
tered into with the water company to
which they are transferred. The letter
follows:
1.-The commission having duly consid-
cred the communication of the commit
tee of the citizens of Irvington relative
to the proposed purchase of the dis
tribution system of the Clinton Water
Company, after discussion, it was re-
solv ID hat the questions presented by
the committee for consideration and
recommendation thereon were questions
involving solely business policy and
therefore not properly n subject of
recommendation by this commission.
$50 far, however, as relates to the
a~dvisabiity of the proposed grant by
the town to the water company of the
towns right to condemn the source of
water supply, the commission would ad-
wise the committee hat in their judg-
ment the exercise of the towns right
to divert by the water COM my shou !

entered into and thereafter be vested
