WATER Works FOR BosroX The Boston people
are in the last throes OF agitation about projection
Introducing water into theircy and their papers are
full of arguments pro and con, upon thesuhect they
have obtained an act from the Legislature autiiorlz
ing them TO bring in water either from Long Pend
which is pond in Natick, some ii miles from ihe
city--or from Charles River. The question Is 10
be pul TO the popular vote of the citizens on Mon
day next, whether this act shall be accepted and
acted upon. Their newspaper WRIT rs are now de-
batting woquesiions first, whether they need water
then whether the right source has been selected A.
to the latter we should imagine that the discus
sion they have had for twenty ycars-ihcir full vote Ct
last year of three 10 one-nsucting the City Council TO
Tor this very act and the result OF the legislative action


might be satisfactory AS the question Of the neccss
y OF water that city need further inquiry. No
supply OF in built up city from wells and rain water
New Yorker would give up the Cro;on even If he were
taxed for his proportion e the whole interest of its
hant There be money value set-eiiher in
Of the safety against FIRE Of domestic convenience
upon such supply. We glad to village neigh
bors are so near this Improvement that they have long
deferred.


While the Bostonians Guessing and calculating the
cos; OF water the antagonist element is burning up their
PROPERTY and thCir population have enough
wash their faces withal.


1t would seem as If they had money enough TO make
roads and build all OF factories hut they make
up their minds 10 procure water.
