 No Complaints to Company.
 While some dissatisfaction has been the failure of the water company to discontinue the reservoir supply, get ting water from it's wells in Mountain View for the summer. Superlnten- dent Mckernan of the water com pany dclares that he has received no complaints.
 From some StretS are received re- ports that the water is unsatisfactory while people living in other sections claim they have no fault to find.

The superintendent says he | has received no complaints thus far. He invites fair criticism and this morning he told a Herald man that if 1 complaints show the necessity for re- 1 serting to the wells he will start the engine at the pumping station: aban- doning the reservoir for the summer.
