Plot

Cattle rancher Andrew Willard is upset that the state is building a highway across his land with labor provided by a chain gang. Willard's corrupt ranch foreman Devery is using the opportunity to rustle Willard's purebred cattle and replace them with inferior stock. Devery and Willard try to save the ranch by creating a series of crimes, starting on a dude ranch, that will shift the blame to the laborers. Highway engineer Roy Rogers tries to stop them, but his only ally is Willard's fair-minded daughter June.
