03:20MARSHAL I WAS JUST GOING TO APPLY FOR A JOB
03:22Sorry, son, but my deputy just went down there with all the men we need.
03:52I don't know.
04:22What's all the trouble, Marshal?
04:41What's all the trouble, Marshal?
04:43Who is he?
04:44Boys, get that man.
04:50I want him.
04:52Wait a minute.
05:04I'll get him.
05:04Watch this fella.
05:06I'll get him.
05:08I'll get him.
05:21I'll get him.
05:23I'll get him.
05:36Well, Marshal, I guess you got me.
05:48But I wasn't mixed up in that gang.
06:02I was trying to help you.
06:03Why, you darn fool.
06:04I knowed it.
06:05I just wanted to talk to you when you let out.
06:08I got a job for you.
06:10And ain't fighting fire's another.
06:12Say, I've been looking for a fella that can shoot and ride like you for months.
06:17Think I'm going to let you get away?
06:19Heh.
06:20No siree, Bob.
06:22Take a look at this.
06:24What's wrong with that?
06:25Nothing, Mitty.
06:26Seems mighty funny to me that every time this gang organizes a rodeo, their own men win all
06:39the first prizes.
06:53When it begins to look like an outsider's going to win, he gets sick.
06:56Two or three has even died from it.
06:57You can't arrest him for that, Marshal.
06:58No, maybe not, but it's mighty peculiar that when these outsiders fall off them those tough
07:03mighty peculiar that when these
07:05outsiders fall off in them tough
07:07broncs suffering from snakebite,
07:09I tell you, it just ain't natural.
07:12What do you want me to do?
07:13Get snakebitten?
07:14No. Now my idea is for you
07:17to trail over there and sign up for the rodeo.
07:20I'll come along
07:21after and do some private investigating
07:23while you work in with the gang.
07:26Of course, you don't have to
07:27know me when we get there.
07:28What do you say to that, son?
07:30Sounds great to me. When do we start?
07:32Right away. Fair enough.
07:38This game is getting pretty hot for us.
07:40It's near time that the law figured out
07:42that something crooked with this whole rodeo business
07:44and starts investigating. Now I've decided
07:46we'll make our next cleanup right here in Dalton
07:48and head for the border before something happens.
07:50We'll stick up the next stage from the mines,
07:52grab the rodeo receipts, and clear out.
07:54You're right, Spike. He acted mighty
07:56suspicious when that fella died over in Boulder.
07:59When do we start?
08:00Tomorrow. The law is to board the stage
08:02down at Sagebrush and give you boys
08:03the high sign that the money's aboard.
08:06With a woman passenger, the stage crew
08:07ain't liable to fight much anyhow.
08:09And I'm an amazing girl in Melbourne.
08:13And I'm an amazing girl in Australia.
08:14But we don't know what we're doing.
08:16department vouloze.
08:17So, again, I want to pick how
08:17you can do it again 42 minutes
08:19for those marchingching to train
08:23and really expansive floors on the road.
08:25You've made me in a city venue where
08:26the 小屋ides might sell
08:26энергом to von Cartwright
08:28in Russell, where an快 miedo
08:31in the city rooms
08:32and Berlin was formed until
08:33155 years that
08:35we're at the maximum
08:36between 1 to 2
08:37toy by 1 to 0.
08:37Well, well.
08:41Hi, Kramer.
08:43Meet my new deputy, John Weston.
08:45Hi, Weston.
08:46How do you do?
08:47Kramer, I want you to paddle Western over to the shortcut trail, the one that leads
08:53to Dalton.
08:54Save them a whole day's journey instead of going by the way of the desert, and give them
08:57a horse.
08:58I'll see if there's another cent to you.
09:00Sure thing.
09:01You better get going, then, right now.
11:11Howdy, Miss Carter.
11:12Going home for the big roundup?
11:13Why yes.
11:14I promised dad I'd be there.
11:16I'll bet he'd be mighty glad to see you.
11:17Yeah.
11:17I'll be glad to see him too.
11:22Pardon me.
11:29Do you mind if I sit on this side?
11:32Why, no, certainly not.
11:34It's quite all right.
11:45Get in.
11:46Ha!
11:48Ha!
11:52Ha!
12:14Ha!
12:15Ha!
12:16Ha!
12:17Let's go.
12:47Let's go.
13:17Let's go.
13:47Let's go.
14:17Let's go.
14:24Looks like we're getting some help from back there.
14:26Get out of there.
14:56Let's go.
15:03Let's go.
15:04Let's go.
15:10Let's go.
15:17Let's go.
15:20You sure got us out of a jam that time, stranger.
15:23Nice riding.
15:25You don't happen to be going to the Dalton Rodeo, do you?
15:28Yes, I am.
15:29Well, tie your horse on behind and ride in with us.
15:31Thanks.
15:32I'll do that.
15:33Thanks.
15:34I'll do that.
15:38Let's go.
15:39Let's go.
15:40Let's go.
15:41Let's go.
15:45Let's go.
15:46Let's go.
15:47Let's go.
15:48Let's go.
15:53Let's go.
15:54Let's go.
15:56Let's go.
16:00Let's go.
16:01Let's go.
16:02Let's go.
16:03John Weston, ma'am.
16:04John Weston, from Utah.
16:05I came over for the Rodeo.
16:07I saw your distress signal from the top of the ridge.
16:10When I saw those men riding by, I thought I'd better come down and investigate.
16:14My distress signal?
16:15It was mine.
16:16I saw the men coming and waiting for help.
16:20Well, that's kind of an unusual place to expect help, wasn't it?
16:23Why, I saw you on the ridge.
16:26Oh, I see.
16:28You're going to Dalton, ma'am?
16:34Yes.
16:35I'm Marjorie Carter.
16:36My father is Judge Carter, president of the Cavaline's Bank in Dalton.
16:39I want you to meet him when we get there.
16:41He'll want to thank you, too.
16:42You see, the bank had a large shipment of money on this stage.
16:51Yeah, there was about 50 of them after us.
16:53But this fellow from Utah comes along single-handed and knocks them all off the horses.
16:57I've never seen Fitch riding.
17:00Can you tell me when I'll find Weston?
17:02I just went in the bank there, Mr. Carter.
17:11Oh, hello, Miss Carter.
17:13This is Mr. Weston, the man who saved us from the bandits.
17:16Mr. Weston, my father, Judge Carter.
17:18Mighty fine piece of work, young man.
17:20I hope you're staying in Dalton.
17:22Yes, I'm going to enter the Rodeo.
17:24That's fine.
17:25Drop into my office after you get settled.
17:27I'd like to have a talk with you.
17:29I'd be glad to.
17:30That's it.
17:41You can't blame me if poor man couldn't take care of him.
17:43She's right.
17:44He just outsmarted you, that's all.
17:45I don't like the looks of him.
17:46He came up behind us and tipped the boys off with their horses.
17:49He say he will enter the Rodeo.
17:51We're going to have to take care of him.
17:53He's liable to spoil our plans.
18:01Hi, young man.
18:02Hello, Judge.
18:03Come in.
18:05Miss Carter?
18:06How do you do?
18:07Sit down.
18:08As justice of the peace of this township, I've been doing a little investigating.
18:18And it appears to me that this Rodeo gang ain't just exactly on the level.
18:23If it ain't, we're going to need all the good men we can get on the side of law and order.
18:28Why, it would be mighty disastrous, son, if anything happened to this Rodeo.
18:33Nearly all the money in this valley is tied up in it.
18:35So we've just got to keep it honest.
18:38You mean to say these people have tied up all the money in the valley on a proposition put on by outsiders?
18:43Yes, every cent.
18:45They think it'll bring people and prosperity to Dalton.
18:48And they're all mighty proud of this little valley.
18:51That's why I'm offering you the job of deputy sheriff.
18:54I figure that with a man like you representing us, they won't dare to pull any of their tricks.
19:01Well, I appreciate your confidence in me, Judge, but I couldn't accept.
19:05It would interfere with my plans.
19:07Plans?
19:08What plans?
19:09My plans to enter the Rodeo tomorrow.
19:13Oh, I see.
19:15Well, I'm sorry, young man.
19:18So am I, Judge.
19:20Good day, Miss Carter.
19:22Good day.
19:23You're right.
19:28I'm afraid I was talking to the wrong man.
19:29Oh, I think he's nice.
19:30Oh, I think he's nice.
19:32THE END
20:02THE END
20:32THE END
21:03Ladies and gentlemen, it gives me great pleasure to announce the first annual Johnson Valley Roundup.
21:11Two days of controversy consisting of riding, roping, and horsemanship.
21:17Featuring Dynamite, the only one ridden horse on the race.
21:21Better be careful, son.
21:23A lot of men have lost their lives mixing up with this game.
21:26Oh, I don't think they'll try anything today.
21:28By tomorrow, I may have this thing figured out for you.
21:31I hope so.
21:31I still say you ought to be careful.
21:36The trick riders, ladies and gentlemen.
21:38Next on the program, ladies and gentlemen, will be the trick robbing contest.
21:49Featuring Jack Harlister.
21:50Featuring Jack Harlister.
22:20Next, ladies and gentlemen, we introduce that world-renowned holder of the All-Round Championship,
22:48Cheyenne Kent and the calf roping contest.
22:50Let her go!
23:20New record for this contest, ladies and gentlemen.
23:25Fence time with 15 seconds left.
23:27Let's go!
23:28Let's go!
23:29Let's go!
23:30Let's go!
23:32Let's go.
24:02Let's try, but Kent's record still stands.
24:05However, we have a dark horse with us today.
24:09A man from Utah will try his luck.
24:12Turn the boots!
24:32A new world record, ladies and gentlemen.
24:39A man from Utah roped and tied his cap in 14 seconds left.
24:43There's one that got away.
25:13Better luck next time.
25:21That's three events he's taken today, that guy from Utah.
25:24He looks like a ringer to me.
25:26Yeah, we got to do something about it.
25:29Now, I don't want to pull anything too rough unless we have to.
25:31Kent, you take the boys up at the cabin and Dolores will get them up there.
25:35Just work over in Jantley.
25:37Enough so he'll be out of the running tomorrow.
25:39Leave that to us.
25:40Leave that to us.
25:49Leave that to us.
25:50Are you ready?
26:14Where do you lose?
26:34Dolores, you got it.
26:35You met on the stage.
26:36She's in with the gang.
26:38Let's play up to her and see what you can find out.
26:41I'll meet you this soon.
26:42Let's go.
26:50Let's go.
26:51Let's go.
26:53As concludes today's events, ladies and gentlemen, don't forget, tomorrow is the big day.
27:23Oh, oh, you were wonderful.
27:28Well, thank you, Miss Carter. That means a lot coming from you.
27:31Oh, flatterer. I'd like you to come to the house dinner tonight.
27:35I told father that maybe we could get you to reconsider his offer.
27:38He needs somebody like you.
27:40Oh, Mr. Westwood, it was wonderful the way you win today.
27:44My brother, he is a big rodeo star also, and he would like to meet you.
27:48Won't you come now?
27:50Oh, well, uh, I, uh, well, yes, uh, goodbye, Miss Carter. I'll see you tomorrow.
28:03Here's the cone, Kent.
28:18You boys get out the back way.
28:20This is my brother, Chai and Kent.
28:31How do you do, Kent?
28:32Pleased to have you accept your hospitality, Mr. Weston.
28:35Sit down, Dolores will fix us a drink.
28:38Thanks.
28:39I watched your work out at the show today and thought you were great.
28:42Well, you did some mighty fine work yourself.
28:44Poor one.
28:49No thanks. I don't drink.
28:56Well, here's looking at you.
28:57Well, Weston, tomorrow's going to be a big day.
29:14Now then, if you want to throw in with us...
29:16one, zwei, two, three, one...
29:18One, two, one, two...
29:31One, two, three, two, one...
29:33One.
29:33Two.
29:36Two.
29:37One.
29:40Two.
29:42Two.
29:43Two.
29:43Three.
29:43Two.
29:43Two.
29:43Two.
29:44Two.
29:44One.
29:44Two.
29:45Two.
29:46He got away.
29:57We better go tell the boss about this, and he'll be plenty sober.
30:10Say, Sheriff, a gang just jumped me up at the Spanish woman's house.
30:13I got a hunch that if you go up there, you can pick up some of the gang that were mixed up in that stagecoach holdup yesterday.
30:18Yeah? Well, you don't look to me like you'd been in any fight.
30:22You don't get me out of here in no wild goose chase, either.
30:25I'm staying right here to guard this money.
30:27Well, suit yourself.
30:29Oh, Utah, I got some prize money for you.
30:38A lot of money there, Judge.
30:40Yes, we're doing pretty well.
30:42Took in $8,000 today and expect more tomorrow.
30:45We'll have close to $30,000 in this bank by tomorrow night.
30:48$30,000?
30:50You're taking an awful chance, aren't you?
30:53I'm still guarding this bank, young fella.
30:56Oh, pardon me, Sheriff.
30:59Thanks, Judge.
31:04Hello, Miss Carter.
31:05Hey, buddy.
31:24Hey, ain't you the young whippersnapper that won most of them events out there today?
31:30Oh, I won a prize or two.
31:31Sit down.
31:33Hey, you look like the young fella that won the belt, Cheyenne, last summer.
31:37No, that was my granddad.
31:38I've been nosing around.
31:41It is to me like we'll have to get to this fella Barton.
31:44After what you've done today, he'll probably be glad to know you.
31:48Go up to the bar and make a bet on yourself.
31:51You rookie up.
31:51All right.
31:54If you can't fix him, I'll have to buy him off.
31:57If you're wrong what work, I'll use my brave.
31:59That bird has put it over on you twice.
32:02Fine bunch you are.
32:05This Utah bird's out there.
32:06He just came in.
32:07Fine.
32:08I'll take care of him.
32:09Right now.
32:14What does he beat?
32:16He's brought a place a bet.
32:18$1,000 on Weston to win.
32:21He's a one-to-two favorite.
32:30That's right.
32:31But it's an easy 500.
32:33Beg Barton.
32:34You're Weston, aren't you?
32:36My name's Barton.
32:37I'm head of the Rodeo Committee.
32:39I'd like to talk to you privately.
32:41Certainly, Barton.
32:51I want to apologize for that little altercation some of my boys had with you.
32:55They thought you were somebody else.
32:57They found out their mistake, and they're sure sorry.
33:00I'd like to have you meet them.
33:02The fact is, I'd like to have you join up with us, Weston.
33:05You'll never get into the big money in this game unless you play with a gang.
33:09I guess you know what I mean.
33:11Well, it sounds good to me.
33:13I've always heard you had to be on the inside to be anything.
33:17What's your proposition?
33:18Just this.
33:19Right now, you're a one-to-two favorite.
33:22That means you're going to win on a $1,000 bet, $500.
33:25The thing for you to do is to let me place $2,000 for you on Kent at two-to-one.
33:29And if you should be off form tomorrow and can't win, you stand to make $4,000.
33:39Now, that's a lot better than $500, isn't it?
33:42Well, I'm afraid you're right.
33:44That's fine.
33:45I'm glad you see it our way.
33:47Come in the back room.
33:48I want you to meet some of the boys.
33:49Weston here is going to join up with us.
34:00I want you all to treat them right.
34:01Weston, meet Cheyenne Kent.
34:03Yeah, I think we met before.
34:06Oh, Senor Weston.
34:08We will see a lot of each other now that we're friends.
34:11See?
34:11I'm kind of green at this racket.
34:14I suppose there's a lot of things about the Rodeo business you could tell me.
34:19Well, boys, see you later.
34:21So long, Barton.
34:21So long.
34:28Well, we'll just make that $2,000 on Weston.
34:34All right.
34:49You see, boys, it just takes a little brains to handle a guy like that.
34:57Yeah, well, how do you know he won't cross us up?
34:59Well, if he does, we can still give him the needle.
35:01We're clearing out after this hall anyhow.
35:06How'd you make out, son?
35:08You had the right hunch, Marshal.
35:11This promoter Barton is a brains of the gang, all right.
35:13But I placed that bet like you told me, and he made me a proposition to join the outfit.
35:21Did he tip?
35:22Sure, I accepted.
35:25He took me right in and introduced me to the rest of the gang.
35:28I met them all.
35:31Barton told me that he'd placed $2,000 bet on Cheyenne Kent for me.
35:35And that if I should lose the events that I was entered in, why, I'd stand to win $4,000.
35:43So I don't think we have much to worry about from them until I start winning.
35:48And then maybe it'll be too late for them to get organized.
35:51Well, I don't know, son.
35:53It strikes me you better be mighty careful.
35:56Remember what happened to them other fellas.
35:59This gang's a tough bunch when somebody crosses them.
36:02I don't want to see you took down with snakebite.
36:05Did you get anything out of that Spanish woman?
36:09No, she wouldn't talk much.
36:11She took me up to that shack on the hill and introduced me to Cheyenne Kent.
36:16She said he was her brother.
36:20Before I could get either one of them to fill anything, the whole gang jumped me,
36:23and I had to carve myself a fast walking stick.
36:26I didn't get you into this job to get yourself killed.
36:29You got any ideas how they work this snakebite proposition?
36:32Not yet, but figuring from past performances,
36:35they can't do much until that bronc riding.
36:38That's one of the last events tomorrow.
36:40So I have until then to figure it out.
36:42And besides, it's going to take them some time to get wise
36:46that I'm not going to lose this rodeo.
36:48Son, I'll never forgive myself if anything happens to you.
36:53No, nothing's going to happen.
36:55Come on, let's turn in.
36:56Tomorrow's a big day.
37:17I want to announce at the time that the high man in yesterday's events
37:20was the man from Utah.
37:21Cheyenne Kent is a runner-up,
37:23and it looks like a close race.
37:26In the event for today,
37:27the contesting will consist of riding, roping, and bulldogging,
37:31ending in a thrilling demonstration of horsemanship
37:34when both the man from Utah and Cheyenne Kent
37:37will try their luck on dynamite.
37:39May the best man win.
37:43For the first time, ladies and gentlemen,
37:45you will see the Indians from the Dalton Reservation
37:49in full regalia.
37:51Let her go!
37:53Let her go!
38:23I'm sure going to give it to you today.
38:26Think you got it doped out?
38:27Well, I don't know for certain, but I got a good hunch.
38:30And you hadn't ought to take any chances.
38:32Well, that's the only way to get that dope on it.
38:34Say, have you got that snake bite medicine?
38:36Sure.
38:37Herald on it.
38:39That's what I thought.
38:40Here, take this outfit with the needle.
38:45What are you thinking about, son?
38:48Well, timer, I think I got this thing figured out.
38:51Come on, I'm in the next event.
38:53Next is the bulldogging, ladies and gentlemen.
38:57Watch closely.
38:58This is going to be good.
39:23How are you thinking about, son?
39:26Come on.
39:26How are you thinking about, son?
39:27Come on.
39:27What is your salary changing, son?
39:33Look at that.
39:36Here, it's heard.
39:37Let's go.
39:42Let's go.
39:43Let's go.
40:44And now, folks, Cheyenne Kent will drive to the bulldogging record.
40:51Let her go!
40:51It's time for 13 seconds, the best so far.
41:12John Weston, a man from Utah, is next up.
41:17I've got to leave, Marjorie.
41:19The receipts are in by now.
41:20I've got to check them over and put them in the vault.
41:22All right, Dad.
41:23I'll be in late.
41:23Look up another one for the man from Utah, folks.
41:47We better catch time by two seconds.
41:50Or 11 seconds left.
41:57We've got to stop that guy right now.
42:00If he wins the bronc riding, we're licked.
42:02When that double crosser comes up for a bronc, you boys give them the needle.
42:05And make it strong.
42:06I'll get going.
42:07Ladies and gentlemen, Cheyenne Kent will attempt to ride dynamite.
42:38And written for three years.
42:40Letterboxd.
42:41Let her come in.
43:07All right, let's go.
43:37Well, you'll find everything all right.
43:43Ladies and gentlemen, a man from Utah will try his luck on dynamite.
43:48Write him, cowboy!
43:51Hurry up there, Weston. You're next.
43:53Just a minute.
44:07Come on.
44:21All righty, you're free.
44:26Free loose. A man from Utah on dynamite.
44:31Where am I?
44:47That guy's wise. He found the needle.
44:49And now he's riding the bronc.
44:51We've got to get moving. We clean out the bank and get over the line.
44:54What about me?
44:55That's for you to figure out.
45:01Let's go.
45:27Erodo!
45:29Erodo!
45:31What a lie!
45:43Peter Weston.
45:45What's the matter?
45:46Spike and the boys are holding up the bank and they left us behind.
45:59Who won't take off.
46:01Who won't take off.
46:07Who won't take off.
46:09All right.
46:10Oh, my God.
46:40Put up your hands.
46:54Why, Sheriff, I...
46:56Robbery and murder, eh?
46:58Well, you didn't get away with it.
46:59I thought you acted kind of suspicious last night when you were looking over that money
47:02and tried to get me out of there.
47:05But, Sheriff, I...
47:05Save your breath, young fellow.
47:10Hold on.
47:22Are you...
47:22You are...
47:23Just a minute, Sheriff.
47:25I'm the United States Marshal.
47:27That young fellow's working for me.
47:29We're after a gang of rodeo crooks, and you almost let the biggest one get away.
47:32Now I've got to organize a posse and go after them.
47:35We're after a gang of rodeo straits.
47:47We're after a gang of rodeo carta.
47:50And today I've got to sew it.
47:54owej
50:25They couldn't prove anything on them.
50:27I know there was a mystery about this Summers.
50:30By a cracky, it took you to figure it out.
50:32Well, you see, Miss Marjorie's like this.
50:37He had to play up to that gal so he could get in with the gang.
50:40Well, in that case, I'll have to forgive him.
50:46Sir, young fella, how about that deputy sheriff job?
50:49Sorry, Judge, but I can't accept.
50:52Does it interfere with my plan?
50:54Plans?
50:54Judge, what are you planning now?
50:56Well, Dad, you see, he's promised to stay away from these beautiful senoritas, and we've got
51:02to plan our honeymoon.
51:04Well, well, so long, Judge.
51:11Well, so long, Judge.
51:11Well, I'm going to take you.
51:16Well, I've got to go ahead.
51:19Well, here we go.
51:21Well, I'll be right back.
