The High Water Croaker. With the singing of the bull rrogs comes the annual croaking of the high water pessimist. These pessimists can see in the signs of the times and in the floods of the Ohio, and the cyclones of Nebraska, a forecast of a higher water on the Fraser river this year than that of '94. The heavy snow fall not only in the Rockies but in the Allenganies will tend towards extreme water accord ng to their way of reasoning. Every year about this time the high water croaker makes himself miserable by his ranting fearsr of the flood bogey.
