Every available plot
The story, if there was a story, seemed to seize upon every available plot on which a drama could be based. There was love, jealousy, heroism, infidelity, revenge, mistaken identity or false accusation, and the inevitable happy ending. This was put on with an attempt at a fire scene, a rescue and some fast riding and display of cowboy attire to give it a Western flavor. Much of the acting was good, but somehow it failed to convince, as the jumbled situations had little in common and the producer failed to carry his story over the footlights by endeavoring to crowd in too much. The film will no doubt please many theatergoers. The bravado and the skillful riding of the cowboys, the chivalrous sentiment that prevails, will satisfy the average audience. But the story, as a specimen of the straining after effect in the modern picture drama, leads us to ask elsewhere, "What of the future?" - The Moving Picture World, March 19, 1910
