 Out-of-work cowboys Kansas Jones and Chito Rafferty are offered jobs at pretty Dusty Willis  ranch after saving her from a beating by saloon owner Clint Burrows. Dusty s good-hearted but weak-willed brother Harry, adding to his $3000 gambling debt to Willis, reluctantly agrees to pay it off by allowing the Ringo Kid, Burrows  vicious hired gun, to rustle cattle from his sister s ranch. Kansas intervenes, deters the rustlers and persuades Harry to confess his involvement to Dusty. Kansas, sent into town by Dusty to pay off Harry s debts, suddenly finds himself on the wrong side of the law, wrongly accused of murder and must rely on Dusty s belief in his innocence for his salvation.
