THE MISSISSIPPI FLOOD.

The story OF the food in the Lower
Mississippi Valley Is 81 narrowing re-
cord of desolatior, wreck, ruin, and sur
fering. Fortunately. the loss OF human
life has been comparatively small. In
this day of weather bureaus ana teie-
graphic network. the people living on
the banks OF the Father OF waters are
afforded much more time in which to
make preparations for seeking, In case
OF overflow. places of safety. than were
their ancestors. who depended for warn
ing OF rains above and rush OF water
upon the cry. and the waving OF torches,
along the levees. But the value OF pro-
perty destroyed will mount up into the
millions. and thousands Of people have
been rendered homeless.
And the worst of 1t is that the end
is not yet in sight, and may not be for
some time. The flood, practically COM
menced In February, has already at
tanned proportions that render it one of
the most tremendous known for years,
and E fear is that the greatest rise
is still to come.
IT is also feared that before the pre-
sent volume of water materially de-
creases 1t will be augmented by the
freshets consequent upon the May rains
In that event the flood would probably
not subside until it was too late for the
planters to cultivate their inundated
lands. This would mean not only great
additional loss to the planters, but addi-
tional suffering for the plantation labor
ers. many of whom have lost their little
all'' in the flood.

no LEVEEs PROTECT.

The rayages Of the food upon the great
levee system of the Southwest has again
brought under discussion the question,
DO levees protect, and can they be made
safeguards against such disasters as the
one that has just overwhelmed the lower
Mississippi Valley?
The New Orleans Picayune vigorously
champions the affirmative side Of the
question, and declares that it is useless
TO talk of any other scheme Of protecting
the country along the Mississippi and
it's tributaries, that Is subject to over
flow. IT points to a number OF levees
that have resisted the pressure Of the
water, each Of which, 1t says, is monu-
ment to the protective powers of the
system, and brings out the interesting
fact that vastly more money has been
spent in rebuilding levees that have caved
into the river than in replacing those
that were swept away in crevasses. In
short, the Picayune contends that the
solution of the problem of thorough pro-
lection is not in substituting any other
system for the present one, but in an
improved method of construction of
levees, by which the banks supporting
the superstructure would be shielded
from caving in. Certainly 1t would seem
that the engineering skill of this age
ought to be able to supply that deside-
ratum,

The Democratic Primary.
Gynchburg News.)


Democrats. in the South at 1east.
appear to be getting together In nearly
every town of Alabama, where the d.
vision on the currency issue was sharper
perhaps. than in any other Southern Safe
the calls for primary elections have been
made broad enough to embrace all Demo-
Gratis who are willing 10 pledge their
good faith for an honest support OF the
party nominees.
This is as 1t should be. under the cir
cumstances, and II is pleasing to have
had a similar exhibition Of prudence and
conservation by the Democratic Execu-
tive Committee Of Lynchburg. The cali
for the primary election to be held on
the 18th instant gives the right OF partl-
cipation to every good citizen who has
been identified with the Democratic
party in State and municipal elections.
and Is willing to pledge his support to the
primary nominees. No Democrat need
stay out unless he prefers to perpetuate
animosities, or desires TO endanger num-
cipal good government.
