FEAR No DANGER OF LOSS
FROM OVERLOOKING RIVER

Although the Jordan river is now
carrying it's utmost capacity of water,
still there is no danger at present Of an
overflow inside the city limits which
will cause damage to property. At pres
ent the river has overflowed its banks in
North Salt Lake, near the old copper
plant but tine water is flowing into the
Warm Springs lake and is doing no
damage TO property.
Just outside the city limits on the
south the river has overf1owed. and the
residents of that district have asked the
county commissioners to raise the banks
OF the river so as to protect their prop
erty. Last year the city raised the banks
of the river two feet i'll the southwestern
part of the city. so thar therc is no dan
ger from floods in that district, and II
the county commissioners do the same
just outside the city limits all danger
would be avertcd
Street Supervisor Raleigh said Thurs
day evening that the banks OF the river
inside the city limits are in good condI-
tion, and that unless there was an un-
usual rise within the next two or three
days there will be no danger from the
overflow.
