Synopsis
An orphaned newspaper boy, Tadpole, eluding the authorities is aided by Andy Thorton, an ex-Marine, who acts as his guardian and takes him to his ranch in Idaho. A guest there, who introduces herself as Mary Regan, sister of Jim Regan, the half owner of the property who was killed in the war, manages the ranch along with Andy. Foreman Dave Lucas, who has been secretly manufacturing counterfeit money, tries unsucessfully to frame Andy, and to avoid suspicion, he and his men decide to leave town. Andy becomes suspicious, and Mary, discovering their secret workshop, sends word to the sheriff through Tad, but he is captured. Andy arrives before they are able to escape and is overcome by acid fumes; in an exciting chase, Andy follows the villains, leaping from his horse to their automobile, and captures them.
