George D. Pallade

George D. Pallade (January 20, 1857–May 27, 1903) was a Romanian politician.

Born to a craftsman in Bârlad, Pallade graduated from the law faculty of the University of Bucharest in 1880. After working as an investigating judge in Bucharest, he began practicing as a lawyer. He taught political economy and law at the Free school of political science. His contributions appeared in a number of newspapers, including Românul and Naționalul, and he edited Gazeta poporului. He was re-elected in 1888, 1891, and 1895. During his second term as Finance Minister, he did not increase the state budget, in order to help Romania out of a severe economic crisis; and also supported protectionist measures against foreign capital.

In 1903, aged 46, Pallade was addressing a public gathering in Bârlad. As he said the word "talisman", he dropped dead. He was buried at Bellu Cemetery in Bucharest.
