"American Empire" was originally released back in 1942.
Anyway - As the story goes - Dan Taylor and Pax Bryce are two entrepreneurs who run a freight company from a riverboat. When they encounter the duplicitous Dominique Beauchard (who is driving a herd of cattle to Louisiana), they offer to take his cattle to their destination for a fee. When Beauchard reneges on his deal, they change direction and go into the cattle ranching business.
