The history OF levee work by the
Yszoo Mississippi Levee Board from
June, 1884, to June, 1895, has been BET
forth by chief Engineer I. G. Dabney
in a pamphlet which, though brief, is
full of interest, and succinctly recounts
the work accomplished by the various
boards, aided by the appropriations
made by congress.
While the efficacy aud utility ofthe
Levee system is generally acknowl-
edged few people stop to consider the
enormous amount Of work accomplish
ed by II, or even It's vital importance
In preserving the low land Of Missis-
sippi Louisiana and Arkansas from
rLin by annual floods. The levee OF the
lower Mississippi now extends over
1917 miles, aud protects scope Of coun-
try capable Of supporting the popula-
tion Of mighty empire, the soil aud
climate and natural advantages of
which, taken oil together, surpsss
those Of sny equal area of the
earth's surface. This immense re-.
gion owes lis reclamation 10 the
sy stem of lcvee protection, aud lis
prosperity aud population Is coevsl
with the establishment of It's dykes.
Within the last few years two im-
mense tracts of land in Arkansas have
been reclaimed, which, until this
was accomplished, were uninhsbited
and uncullivated wildcrnesses. They
are the White river and 81 Francis
basins The effect Of closing these great
waste weirs will be to increase the
height Of the water aud the pressure
against the levee Of the Yazoo Delta
district II Is very probable thai
IL will necessitate the raising and
strengthening of our levee to much
greater cxtont, and indeed serious con
sequence TO our side Of the river may
eHsue upon the completion of thii
work. The great st. Francis basin
Major Dabney states, will therefore
not be entirely closed until the efecl
upon the lower levee on the Mississippi
side Is apparent, aud measures hav,
Deen taken TO prevent disaster to th,
rich aud populous Delta country. TIT
st. Francis aud White river basins ar,
capable VI becoming as highly i'm
proved aud productive as any part o
the valley, but are as yet almost un
touched by the hand of man, Will,
much Of tho Mississippi Delta is in
state ofhigh culture aud thickly popu
lated by an intelligent aud rrosperou
people. Its interests and safety will o
course bo considered by both Leve
Boards aud government before ,hos
