Synopsis
Bert Manerube interests Lige Melberne in a scheme to capture a herd of wild horses by running them into a barbwire corral. Chane Weymer, a trail rider, realizes that this procedure will maim or kill most of the horses and convinces Melberne to change his plans. Manerube then joins up with the McPherson gang and persuades them to uses the barbwire trap. The men stampede the wild horses toward the wire, and Chane rides out in front of them, leading the horses away from the corral. McPherson is killed by an Indian seeking revenge for the death of his daughter. Chane weds Sue.
