REPORT OF WATER COMMISSIONERS.
The Water Commissioners beg leave to submit the fol- lowing Report for the year 1887 :
It will be seen upon reference to the Treasurer's report of the receipts and expenditures that the receipts for water rates have increased over the year 1886, $672.61, and in two years there has been a gain of $1,657.73. This is a gratifying result, for it will also be seen that the running ex- penses have not increased but on the other hand are $356.90 less than last year.
