Writer Peter B. Kyne wrote a series of stories for the Saturday Evening Post featuring a pair of Western characters, Sinful John and Snowshoe Sam. This picture was based on one of those stories. Marjorie Kincaid (Peggy Adams), the daughter of a prospector (Ivan Christie), is in love with Wallace Hyde (Chester Barnett), the son of a crooked promoter from the East (William Chatterton). The promoter swindles Marjorie's father, and he dies shortly afterward. She's destroyed by her father's death, and when Wallace returns to town as the hospital doctor, she refuses to have anything to do with him. But the girl has a pair of admirers, Sinful John (Russell Simpson) and Snowshoe Sam (William Wadsworth), who want to help her. So they turn the tables on the promoter and sell him a salted mine, then hand the profits over to Marjorie as payment for her father's loss. They also tell her that Wallace knows nothing of his father's wicked doings. After the couple is reunited, the old guys head off to another part of the West.
