Synopsis

When upon her father's death, Mary Willard assumes the management of his railroad holdings, she finds that her major competitor is the unscrupulous Harvey Judson. To protect her company, Mary has Judson kidnapped and taken to the woods where he is completely helpless. Mary accompanies the group to the wilds and Judson, unaware of her real identity, finds himself falling in love with her. When he discovers that Mary is his principal business rival, the two race back to civilization to continue their competition. At the railroad station, they discover that the government has nationalized all their holdings, and so decide to battle together in the future as man and wife.
