SAYS PROSPECTS
LOOK COOD
Col. \\\ S. Thomas of Pittsburg,
owner of the Copper Kins mine at
Whltehorse, who left on the Princess
May, has a firm faith In the future
of the Yukon.
"There is lots of high grade ore in
the Yukon," said Col. Thomas today,
"but it hardly pays to mine It In the
present condition of the copper mar
ket. It is too much, like giving It
away. Then again the cost of ship
ping the ore out Is great. However,
1 think the country has a great fu
ture. When the shipments are heavy
enough the transportation will be
cheaper and the price of copper will
be up before long. The copper mines
In the Yukon will be a big thing In
the future."
