"Three children operating rocker at a gold mine on Dominion Creek, Yukon Territory, ca. 1898."
Good or bad situation, at least they had parental guidance.
That is probably not a well, it is a mine. The kids parents, or maybe brothers or sisters are most likely down there filling the bucket with what they hope is gold bearing rock. The boy on the left has a "prospectors hammer" on his shoulder.
Brings to mind the saying:
"Hard times make strong men(people),
Strong men make good times,
Good times make weak men,
Weak men make hard times!"
