Still Time to Vote Meanwhile, the voting continues to he heavy. There still is time for everyone to register his opinion. On this basis the “antis” have a chance to do more than protest.

Missouri river bottoms in the Bismarck area were warned Friday by the federal weather bureau to “be on the alert” for trouble if the level of the stream continues to rise. The river lifted 1.4 feet here during the last 24 hours to a height of 9.3 at 12:30. This was not regarded as a cause for alarm, however, as this still is 10.6 feet below the flood stage. Be- cause of conditions upstream predic- tion was made that there will be a further sharp rise here within the next day or so. The ice is breaking somewhat in the river at Washburn as a result of a rise of 4.8 feet there during the last 24 hours, the level now being 132 feet. The rise in the last two days DON’T LEAVE ANY LAMPS BURNING Missouri bottom residents are warned not to repeat what one settler did during the flood of 1910. Awakened at night by the lap- ping of fast-rising waters on the sides of his tarpaper shack, an Emmons county resident lit his kerosene lamp, took one look out the door and climbed to the top of his home, Slowly and inexorably the wa- ters rose and with them the table on which stood the burning lamp. When the lamp hit the roof of the - shack, it exploded setting the roof afire. However what threatened to be @ tragedy turned out happily be- cause the flaming roof attracted another settler’s attention: He had a@ boat and -saved his. luckless neighbor, has been 68 feet. Residents of the Jow lands in that area have been ad- vised to either move to higher ground or at least be prepared to do so, since the river there is only three feet be- low the flood stage and ice conditions can cause trouble in a few hours. Sanish Reports Drop Other up-river points reported lit- tle change. At Elbowoods the level rose only slightly in the last 24 hours while a drop of three to four inches was reported at Sanish. The ice gen- erally is holding in that area. Settlers in the valley of the Mis- souri river south of Williston Thurs- day night abandoned farms as new torrents of water poured into the lake created by an ice gorge eight!” miles southwest. The lower section of the city was menaced as the water, from the up- per reaches of the river in eastern Montana, rose & foot in a few hours, after having receded steadily during the day. Tracks of the Great North- ern railway “were imperiled. The swollen stream was reported crowding its banks at Wolf Point and Poplar in Montana, with the flood stage rising 8 feet at the former point. Small ice jams in that area caused flooding at several: points. Crest C Fast E. H. Bekkedahl, hydraulic engineer for the U. 8. geological survey at Hel- ena, Mont., predicted Friday the crest of the new flood would reach Willis- ton Friday night or Saturday. The massive ice barrier impounding the waters south of here was still holding securely, and the lake created above the gorge was choked with ice. Fears were expressed for farmers both above and below the ice jam. Those downriver, observers said, would be in serious danger should the barrier go out suddenly. At the Lewis and Clark bridge west of here, Bekkedahl reported, the flood level stood at 15 feet compared to the normal stage of 3 feet. Water, he PACKED WITH LAUGHS ... SPICED WITH SONGS!

Fear For Farmers Should a sudden rise occur in the newly created lake below Williston, observers pointed out, both livestock and farm famiiies now safe on high ground would be endangered. Increasing the flood menace was a heavy fall of wet snow during the night. The icy crests of unnumbered swollen streams plunged seaward Fri- day, leaving at least nine persons dead, endangering additional thou- sands and causing millions of dollars damage in eastern states:and Can- ada. Colder weather increased the mis- ery of refuges and torrents were in- creasing in fury in parts of Pennsyl- vania, New Jersey, New York and New England. Hundreds Homeless Hundreds of families were made homeless by swirling waters. Bridges and a dam gave way. Highways and railroads were inundated and fertile ee were scoured of their top- il. ‘Two died in New Hampshire, and one each in Massachusetts, Vermont, Maine, New York, New Jersey, On- tario and Quebec. Most of the threatened middle west was saved temporarily from flood danger by colder weather ana falling snow, but 100 families were forced from their homes in western Lowa. Snow and more rain fell during the night in many parts of the east, where temperatures dropped to or be- low freezing. Red Cross to Rescue The American Red Cross at Wash- CAPITOL Tonight and Sat.
