Wally Fraser comes to Juniper City to take revenge on the murderer of his father, whom he believes to be Dawson, a local banker. After rescuing the daughter of rancher Crawford from a runaway team, Wally warns Crawford that Al Meggs is cheating in a poker game; in a fight Meggs kills a man and seeks shelter with Dawson. Crawford hires Wally to help drive to the railroad a shipment of cattle, the funds from which are to pay off notes to Dawson. Wally forces Dawson to accept the money and give them a receipt, but they are robbed by Meggs; Wally finds Meggs dying, and before Dawson can shoot him, Meggs finishes off the villain. Wally wins the rancher's daughter, Mildred.
