to disperse the mob, but) guarded the
palace and later in the evening the

DO WELL IN
THE IK10K0
Georg? Butler, a well known mining
man of the Innoko country, came out
on yesterday's train and will go south
on the Princess Royal. For the past
two years Mr. Butler has been con
nected with the development of the
Innoko and he has a firm faith in
the future of the country.
"There are now about 400 men in
the Innoko," Mr. Butler said today,
"and this spring they made a total
cleanup of about $269,000. The fall
cleanup will be fully as large, if not
considerably larger. The average
per man will be higher than $1,500.
That Is pretty good I think.
"The country is new yet, but the
gold Is there all right, and it will only
be a question of a few years before
the country has permanent camps and
a big annual output."
