Synopsis
By fighting for the rights of the underprivileged, lawyer Bill Madden has become friends with reform-conscious newspaper editor Eustace Miles, and has fallen in love with Eustace's daughter Mary. Meanwhile, growing wary of Bill's increasing power, political boss Phineas Brown has hired a man to kill him. The gunman arrives while Bill argues with Phineas' son Victor, who once tried to seduce Mary. The gunman accidentally kills Victor, and when Phineas finds out, he dies of a heart attack. Then, after he and Mary become engaged, Bill wins the nomination for district representative.
