ILLUSTRATED ADDRESS ON
NEW MINING CAMP
Mine Operators in the BuIIfrog Dis
trict Desire. to Trade in Los
AngeIes-Special Train
to RhyoIite

The daily lectures generously illus
trated by stereopticon views given at
the Los Angeles chamber of commerce
assembly hall in the interest of the
Bullfrog mining district are having the
effect of enthusing the people of this
city to a point of interest in the South
ern Nevada gold camp that has never
before been reached. Throngs of inter-
ested people fill the assembly hall
daily and from the attention paid to
the lecturers and the questions fired at
the speakers from Rhyolite 1t is evil
dent that the excursion tomorrow to
the Bullfrog district will be large
one.
The crowd at yesterday mornings
session was particularly large and en-
thusiastic, and when Frank p. Man.
ming, editor of the Rhyolite Miner, who
was sent to Los Angeles by the Rhyo-
lite board of trade to relieve Mr.. Glenn
ems, finished his address he was sur
rounded by men and women VINO piled
all sorts of questions about Bullfrog;
about certain mines and stocks; about
the chances for this or that line of
business; about employment, wages,
the weather. etc.
Urged to Visit BuIIfrog
Mr. Mannix asked all who possibly
could spare the time and expense to go
to Bullfrog and see for themselves
whether or not the reports made about
the mines and conditions of that camp
were true.
Don't take my word for it," said
air. ManniX. Don't take anyone else's
word for it-not even that of your best
friend, but If ayou want to see what
Bullfrog offers to investors II you are
desirous of investing in mines, or
stocks, or real estate, or embarking in
the mercantile business, the thing to
do Is to see what you are getting. This
Is what you do when you are buying a
home in Los Angeles or when you or
der a suit of clothes or a bonnet. The
Bullfrog invites inspection. This is the
reptiles long suit. Familiarity breeds
respect for the mining camp on the
banks of the roaring Amargosa.
at is said, with some coloring of
truth. that Los Angeles is missing a
great opportunity by not working up
to the importance of the Southern Ne
vada mining camps, especially that one
which I have the honor of representing
and which l believe will be the great
est and most lasting mining district in
the world. The Comstock of nearly
half century ago made metropolis of
San Francisco. The Bullfrog of the
new Nevada can and may make a
greater metropolis of Los Angeles. The
trade of the camps in our section OF
the Sagebrush state and those in the
southeastern part of your own state
naturally belongs to Los Angeles. You
have the best of Salt Lake, as trans
portation facilities at present are af-
torded, by over hundred miles. Not
only this. but our people are favorably
inclined toward this beautiful city, its
commercial houses and it's people. They
want to buy their mining supplies here;
they want you to supply them with
their foodstuffs and raiment, as we'll as
with many of their necessary diver
sions and amusements. For all of
these we are willing to pay prevailing
prices and profits"
