ing the cost OF production, and ground
that WAS formerly Improbable is now
paying. Wages are fairly good, SIS per
day and board being the ruling pay,
and, while there are many idle men
complaining of dull times, one who
really wants work can get it.
The action of the Canadian govern
ment in prohibiting relocations ON all
the creeks and closing Bonanza and El-
dorado to locations, is driving out the
prospector and small miner, and re-.
tards Developments to that extent.
Capital is coming in. however, and
groups and blocks of claims are being
bought up for large workings. 1t is
the old story Of the individual miner
giving way TO the syndicates, and
hunting new prospects. Hundreds Of
these during the last spring have left
the Klondike and gone to American
territory, where, tits claimed, the poor
man has better chance than here.
Nome has taken the majority. but
manv have gone to nearer points.
An early rush went to the Koyukuk,
but late reports from there are very
unfavorable. Parties just returned say
that very little gold has been taken ont
in that camp, and the ground ..is ex-
ceedinglv difficult to work, ON account
Of glaciers which overlie the bedrock.
The Forty Mile and Birch Creek dig
gings, both OF which were practically
deserted in the rusn TO Dawson in 1897
and later in the Nome stampede last
TALL, are again coming into favor, FOR il |
as never been disputed that there is
much good ground there that will pay |
wages and more.
The latest candidate ~ popular ia.
vor is the Tsnana district. Reports
rom there are generally good. The
ground is three TO seven feet deep only,
iveriaying a slate and purphry bed
'ock, and there is plenty of water for
'luicing, all OF which makes it an ideal
,ounrty for summer working. 1t is

The recent action OF the United
