Plot



As described in a review in a film magazine, Hugh Nichols (Mix) is a wealthy tenderfoot idler who has never taken life seriously until a westerner demands that he complete a dam on his property that was promised by his father and is necessary for a score of ranches. As Hugh has already sent money to complete this project, he determines to investigate for himself, and disguises himself as a peddler of musical instruments. He finds that his agent is a crook, steals his own money back, and resists arrest until he can be identified. In the meantime he has fallen in love with Peggy (Bow), the leader of the ranchers. The villain dynamites the dam and Hugh saves the young woman.
