In soeaking of the weather in
Whitehorse, Dr. Keller sayg that
this has been an exceptionally mild
witter, thus far there having been
verv little severe weather.
"The business men in southern
Yukon," sa^ pr Keller, "are all
optimistic as to the coming season,
all o? them believing that with the
enuii'g of the *'ar, swid a satisfac
tory peace settlement in sight, the
copper mines in the Whitehorse dis
trict will attract the attention of
capital.
Or. Keller roport* that the Cop
per King mine at Whitehorse is
looking better with every ton of
01 e taken out and Manager Whitney
is now sinking another shaft and
expects to increas© the output a»
fast as men can be gotten and
