IN DAXWER OF FLOODS.
I ears That the Old Muddy Will Do Dam
age This Spring.
j A flood of the Missouri now seems
inevitable and the only question is
how bad it will be. The present snow
is a b.id indication . One of the most
serious consequences of any great fall
of snow at this time would be its ef
fect on the river. Some trouble is an
ticipated from that source under the
most favorable circumstances and is it
highly desirable that the season
should reuifin open at this point. Ob
server Welseh, of Omaba, says that
while-he does not wish to pose as an
alarmist, it is certain that nothing
but most fortunate circumstances can
prevent serious floods when -the Mis
souri breaks away from the grip of
winter. The immense quantities of
ice and snow further north will be
sufficient to swll the current of the
river to tiemendous proportions. This
will be true in any case, but if the
tiood from the north comes before the
river is open at this point the conse
quences are bound to be serious. It
all depends, the observer says,
whether the river breaks up here be
fore the same transition takes place
further up. . The fact that the Eik
horn, Platle and other tributaries ure
beginning to move is encouraging.
If these are cleared of ice before the
big flood comes from the north much
of the danger will be prevented, but
if cold weather and snow continues
along this part of the river until the
thaw begins up along the headwaters
the coudilions are favoiablo for oue of
the biggest Hoods ever known in this
part of the country.
