Quotes 

• [after reading the bill of sale for the Sweetwater Mine] 

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : Well, it sounds legal enough.

  Blackie : It won't do you any good.

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : It won't do your boss any good, either, unless he can record it... so I think I'll keep it.

  Meade : Say, what's the deal?

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : Maybe a partnership. Tell your boss to look me up. I'll talk business with him.

  Blackie : We can always get another deed from Mrs. Durant.

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : [referring to Dan]  Then why are you kickin' this boy around? You tell your boss I'll be at the Sweetwater Mine around sundown.

  Dan McLeod : You're all a bunch of crooks.

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : The question is who's the smartest.

• Blackie : Meade, you and Skyball go back and tell the boss what's happened. If this fellow Nevada's got nerve enough to go to the mine, I'm going to be the reception committee.

  Meade : You're takin' a chance, Blackie, goin' up there alone. That mine's haunted!

  Blackie : [patting his rifle]  A ghost never walked that this won't take care of.

• [Nevada sticks a gun in Blackie's back and relieves him of the bill of sale to the Sweetwater Mine] 

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : Don't move. Don't make a sound.

  Blackie : You'll never get away with this.

  Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie : The ghost of Sweetwater Mine can get away with anything... including cutting a few throats.
