Clifford has defeated the boss in all contests of wits and strength. Ruth Ann Baldwin is the author of the script and Henry McRae is the director. With the capable Bison cast and the wealth of natural scenery that is at hand out in California, where this picture was made, and the virile story which is told, assures this Bison feature a great success. When the new school teacher arrives from the east, a contest for her favor begins between Clifford and the boss. Then begins the delightfully amusing incidents which initiates the school teacher to western ideas and conditions. In this Clifford is also a victor. Paul, the teacher's brother, arrives from the east and falls in love with Mercia, the ranch owner's daughter. Bainbridge encourages Paul in gambling, loans him large sums of money, and then forces him to join his gang of cattle rustlers. Paul repents, however, and exposes the operations of the gang. The cowboys, led by Clifford, attack Bainbridge and his men in a saloon. They escape while Paul and Clifford are wounded. Bainbridge sends the members of his gang across the border, while he remains behind, with the intention of being avenged upon Clifford. He goes to the ranch house and takes a pot shot at the wounded man. He misses and Clifford shoots him dead. Clifford wins the school teacher. Written by Moving Picture World synopsis See less
