Synopsis

Following a political coup in the Balkan kingdom of Roxenburg, young King Alexis and his American governess Janet Holbrooke flee to America but are pursued by two Roxenburg officers. Out west, Tom Potter, a rancher, gives them shelter. A neighbor, Henry Storne, holds the mortgage on the ranch but is lenient because of his daughter Cynthia's interest in Tom. Resentful of Janet's presence, Cynthia informs the Roxenburg officers about Alexis, whom they kidnap, but Tom overtakes their car and rescues the boy. Cynthia then induces her father to foreclose on the ranch. During Tom's absence, the Roxenburgians again abscond with Alexis and Janet, but in a desperate ride Tom overcomes the officers. The elder Storne relents in his foreclosure proceedings, assuring the happiness of Janet and Tom.
