Plot

In 1893, a swarm of settlers descended on the town of Red Dust, located on the Cherokee Strip. Land agent Trent Parker (Frank Jaquet) was drowning in gambling debts. To pay them off, he accepts an offer from two swindlers (Roy Barcroft, Bud Geary) who have concocted a scheme to cheat the settlers out of their land. But then government agent Chad Stevens (Allan "Rocky" Lane) rides into town, promising the peaceful settlers that he will drive out the gang of thieves.
