Synopsis
In order to give Ruth Shelton's infant son a name, newspaper reporter Jack Bradley marries the young woman, who has been betrayed and discarded by another man. Years later, as an editor of a powerful metropolitan newspaper, Bradley is waging a campaign against "Big Jim" Garvan, the corrupt political boss of the town. Ruth's son Howard, who bears Bradley's name, is in love with Garvan's daughter May. While attempting to uncover some scandal that would destroy Bradley, Garvan finds Tom Leighton, Howard's real father. Garvan uses Leighton to blackmail Bradley, and as the election draws near, Howard discovers the truth of his parentage and, overcome with hate, kills his own father. At the trial, Howard is acquitted on the grounds that he was suffering from an inherited instinct of hate and was justified in the murder of his mother's persecutor. Bradley then defeats Garvan, and all ends happily as Howard marries May.
