Big-hearted John Kling, a stock raiser, made his money by struggling for it. He mingled with his "boys", shared in their joys and helped them through their sorrows. Anna, Kling's wife, longed for his personal devotion, thinking because he was so engrossed in his business that he neglected her, though he is working for her alone. Lemp is a tramp. He has but one redeeming trait and that is his personality. Kling receives a rush order from Drift & Co., the packers. The boys work with tireless energy for the man they love and the train starts for the East on schedule time. It is a long hard pull and the heavily taxed engine has all it can do to draw the train load of cattle to the summit. Kling's consignment almost reaches the top when the coupling, back of the engine snaps and the trainload of cattle starts down grade. The telegraph operator sees the runaway train and wires Kling. He and one of the men leave on a hand car, pumping their way toward where they suppose the wreck will be. The crew has deserted, but Lemp was on the train. Death stares him in the face, but Lemp is no coward. He climbs the ladder to the top of the train and works the chain brakes. When Kling comes up to the standing train, he thanks Lemp and gives him a chance to make good. Kling shares his business and home with Lemp, and Lemp falls in love with Anna. Anna repulses Lemp's profession of love. Kling's attention lags and Lemp's increases and Anna, discontented, finds some comfort in the only companionship offered, while Kling is working to earn money for her pleasure. Kling leaves one night to oversee his boundary posts. Lemp pleads with Anna to go away with him. Kilng's horse steps into a chuck and breaks a leg. Kling, returning to the ranch for another mount, through a window of the house sees Lemp and Anna together. He hears Lemp's entreaties and he sees Anna draw a gun when Lemp oversteps himself. Kling laughs bitterly but treats Lemp as though nothing had happened. He inveigles him into a stock deal, advances him money and takes his share in the ranch as security. When word comes that all is lost, Kling has his revenge, for he shows Lemp the cowboys driving his cattle onto Kling's land, and Lemp realizes that he is ruined. He pleads with King, but Kling taunts him. He locks the door and turning to Lemp, accuses him of trying to steal his wife, and forces him to fight. Anna, hearing sounds of the scuffle, beats upon the locked door and begs and pleads that they stop. But Kling was beating an everlasting lesson into Lemp and when he has finished, Lemp has learned his lesson well. Then Kling turns to Anna, tells her of his great love, and their reconciliation is complete. - Moving Picture World, February 26, 1916
