Synopsis by Hans J. Wollstein
First National's cowboy star Ken Maynard gave Fox's Tom Mix a run for his money in this above-average silent Western about the rivalry between travelling Wild West shows. When Colonel Beldan (veteran matinee-idol Maurice Costello) loses his star rider to an unscrupulous competitor, young Bob Mason (Maynard) and his horse Tarzan get their chance to shine. The competitor attempts to sabotage Beldan's successful new act by stealing some of the colonel's wagons, but Mason recovers them in time for the Big Show. Australian leading lady Marian Douglas (formerly known as Ena Gregory) played Costello's daughter and Maynard's love interest.
