AN EXPLANATION.
To the Editor. Sir, —In the correspondence between the Waterworks Company and the Corporation, published in this morning’s Star, and more particularly in the Council’s letter of the 9th May, therein recited, I am, intentionally or otherwise, made to say that the Council will apply to Parliament at the ensuing session for the repeal of the “ Company’s rating powers.” What I did say—and what the Council meant to say—was that the Council will apply for the repeal of the Company’s *' compulsory rating power:” for the repeal of the power by which the Company charge those persons who neither use nor want the Company’s water. " . I have been requested to explain this much.—l am, Ac., J. M. Massey, Town Clerk. Dunedin, May 28,
