JUDGE LARGENT
On The OUTLOOK
QUOTES MACKAY AS SAYING
BULLFROG is ONE OF
THE GREATEST.

RHYOLITE, May 13.-Judge Lar
gent, of the Rhyolite Board of Trade.
who is one of the best informed
judges of the mining situation in all
Nevada and who represents some of
the largest Eastern interests of the
state, quotes Clarence H. Maekay as
saying that the Bullfrog district is
the greatest in Nevada.
In a dictated interview upon the
present situation in Nevada Judge
Largent says:
AS usual, we should have touched
our high point of prosperity during
March and April of this year with
a gradual decline from those months,
varied by an occasional furry or so
during the summer, but the rich
mans panic in the East, the wash
outs of the Salt Lake & San Pedro
Railroad, and the labor troubles in
Goldheld, all combined to weaken
our securities and depres their value.
The natural result of this de-
ferring of the stock sales and active
market is that it must come later,
and those who have a keen concep-
ton of the present conditions and
take advantage of the same by buy
ing now, will reap immense profits.
The good day has been merely
put off a little, and we shall have
here what we have never had be-
fore-a summer market. Instead of
taking our vacations from June until
September, we shall be compelled by
public interest throughout the coun-
try to take them in August only. /
predict that you will see extreme ac-
tivity in Nevada in the next two
months.

our town nine shipping mines; the
largest roller mill in the state OF
Nevada completed; five other large
mills in course Of construction; ex-

In the Mayhower Bullfrog Consoli

a long, large vein twenty-five fee
