1Opinion of the Court

Opinion by

Mr. Justice Simpson,

These six appeals are from judgments of the Superior Court, affirming a single order of the Public Service Commission, made after the hearing of appellants’ complaints, alleging certain rates of the Westmoreland Water Company to be unreasonable and excessive. Some of the complaints averred also inadequacy of supply and impurity of water, but these were wi thdrawn before the hearing. The cases raise the same question, were heard together before the commission and on appeal in the Superior Court and in this court, and it is admitted require but one opinion.
