HON. GEORGE M. BOURQU|N
Pithy Quotations From His Speeches

Former Federal Judge George M. Bourquin, now completing a
statewide campaign as the Republican candidate for the six-year
term in the United States senate, has gained nationwide attention
through his ability as an orator. Throughout the present cam
paign, he has consistently addressed crowded auditoriums.
Here are a few interesting quotations from addresses that he
has delivered in virtually every city o. the state:
By insidious wiles and cunning legislation the brain trusters are
attacking the Constitution.
Whenever the people start to think, it is the kiss of death and
fatal to the Democratic party.
1t was the World War, now known as Wilson's folly, which
caused the depression.
The government had no more power to make you give up your
gold than 1t would to take the shoes off your feet.
gold deal.
If the government does not keep its promises, why should the
people?
When government repudiates its obligations, that is a worse
attack on fundamental institutions than all the communists put
together.
The Democratic platform was made to get in on, not to stand on.
I'll be just as respectful of Roosevelt as he will be of me when
l get to Washington.
There was never so much government money being distributed
before as there is now with the avowed purpose of influencing the
election.
The NRA codes are 10000 pages of law which may be enforced
l have heard of merciful murderers but never of a benign die
tator.
No one will starve when the Republicans come into power, no
matter what the Democrats say now.
Things are getting worse, not better. The administration con-
fesses that next winter will be the hardest one since the depression
started.
If ever I vote to pay a soldier a dollar it will be as good a dollar
Gates.
1 have sympathy for the sheepmen. I have been in the sheep
business with PenweH.
Republicans always have to pay the debts the Democrats incur.
Wheeler thinks he stands in the shoes of Walsh. They are a
poor fit and rattle quite a bit.
