U. S. Marshal Steve Lawlor (Charles Starrett) comes to the aid of cattle-rancher Madge Conway (Iris Meredith) after her father (Edward LeSaint) is murdered by a gang of cattle rustlers, and she tries to carry on with the help of her ranch-foreman, Bob (Bob Nolan), and her loyal ranch hands (Sons of the Pioneers).
Aided by his friend and fellow lawman, U. S. Marshal McLain (LeRoy Mason), Lawlor, posing as an outlaw, suspects Matt Taylor (Dick Curtis) and banker Frank Parker (Robert Fiske) of being behind the rustling and killing.
Charles Starrett enters the shoot em up opera twenty minutes after the story is set up (the dastardly Dick Curtis shoots Meredith's rancher father and takes over the cattle business, and frames Meredith of shooting his banker). It's a nifty western with a strong plot and engaging characters.

When Hayes' gang kill Jim Carter, Dodie Cameron finds his money and hides it. Failing to find the money and seeing Dodie Cameron nearby, the gang chases her only to be run off by Steve Randall.
When they kidnap her to get her to talk, Steve breaks that up. But just as Steve is then recovering the money she hid, he is captured and arrested for the murder.
A fairly decent Starrett western, though a little confusing in places - it's quite action-packed and features a judge as a villain. Villainous regular Dick Curtis appears and gets shot by the judge and Starrett is framed -

Jim Endicott (Charles Starrett) has organized the ranchers into building a spur rail line so they can ship their cattle and avoid the rustlers.
Faro Jack (Norman Willis) gets banker Potter to lend them the money and then plans to sabotage the project so he and Potter can take over all the ranches in the valley.
But Jim has dealt with Faro before and he plans to see the line completed...
Charles Starrett straps on his gun in another formulaic shoot 'em up with a busy plot and decent action, but the villain having a brother who is innocent and used for his own ends is interesting -Can Starrett prevent the kid from getting involved?
