- [seeing Nevada standing over Blackie's body]
- Dan McLeod: Did you plug him?
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Naw, he's been dead all the time. His throat's cut. There's no doubt about it - there's a fiendish killer running loose in this Territory.
- [to Jenny after spotting Twining and his men following them]
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: Look! If they catch us, it won't be healthy. Come on, Jenny, knock on it!
- [Sandy forces a couple of Twining's henchmen ahead of him at gunpoint]
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Sandy, looks like you got a pretty good collection of hardware there. How many escaped?
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: Well, that's accordin' to how you interpret "escaped". Several of 'em have given up the ghost already.
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Speakin' of ghosts, there's one we have to rout out.
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: He's routed already. Seems like he was the barber in that town when it was boomin'. His son got killed in that mine.
- Chief Marshal: If I wasn't all snared up with work here, this is one job I'd handle myself.
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: It must be serious.
- Chief Marshal: To me personally, very - that's why I picked you and Sandy to handle the assignment. Did you ever hear of Buckeye?
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Why, yes. If I recall it's over in the Indian Lodge territory - a ghost town.
- Chief Marshal: A ghost town with a haunted mine.
- [Sandy is undercover as Buckeye's town barber]
- Meade: Come on, Scissors. They want you for a lawyer over at the trial.
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: A lawyer? I ain't no lawyer.
- Meade: Yeah? Well, I saw your last eight haircuts. You ain't no barber, either. Come on.
- [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.
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: [after sneaking in through a hidden panel] Shave?
- Steve Twining: Where'd you come from?
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: Right through that door.
- Steve Twining: That door?
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: Yes.
- Steve Twining: Well, I don't know. Something must be wrong with my hearing.
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: Oh no, Mr. Twining. You were just admiring yourself in my mirror... .
- [under his breath]
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: I don't know why.
- Steve Twining: What?
- Marshal Sandy Hopkins: I said I don't know why... you don't grow a mustache.
- [first lines]
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Hello, Chief.
- Chief Marshal: How are you, Nevada? Sit down.
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Thank you.
- Chief Marshal: If you had wings, I'd have said you flew here.
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Well, your telegram said it was urgent.
- [last lines]
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Oh, ah, by the way, I'm a little behind on my fishing. What about that vacation I've got coming up?
- Chief Marshal: Well, let's see. I, uh... .
- Marshal Nevada Jack McKenzie: Thanks, Chief. I'll see ya when I get back.
- [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.
