Rio Ed comes down from the mountains and invites all the men in the saloon to drink with him. They are all afraid to refuse, excepting Dick Wayne, who tells Rio he is particular with whom he drinks. This infuriates Rio and he forces Dick to the bar and orders a drink for him. Dick throws the drink on the barroom floor, and deals Rio a stinging blow across the face with his open hand. Dick is pretty far gone with consumption, as a result of his dissipation, and the exertion is too much for him. He falls back weakly into the arms of the man nearest him, coughing violently. Rio, seeing Dick's weakened condition, does not continue the fight, but says he will get Dick into condition to fight with him. He takes Dick forcibly to his cabin in the mountains and there proceeds to nurse him back to health, with the one idea in view, that of getting Dick into condition to fight with him. Dick's sister comes to the town to search for her brother. When she finds him in Rio's cabin she is under the impression that Rio is nursing Dick for friendship sake, and neither man undeceives her. She tells Rio she will now take care of Dick and Rio allows Dick to depart with Madge. Dick's health improves fast and he is at last able to go to the village. On his first trip there he sees Rio and they go to the back room of the saloon to fight it out. Mercidio, a low white man, owner of the saloon, covets Madge, but has been ordered by Dick to keep away from her. Mercidio determines to get Dick out of the way and during the fight between Dick and Rio, Mercidio stabs Dick in the side with a knife which he has previously dickered for with a half breed in the presence of Rio. Dick is taken to his cabin and all are under the impression that the stabbing has been done by Rio, who is unable to prove otherwise. Dick's wound is not fatal and he is recovering when Mercidio comes to the cabin and forces his attentions upon Madge. Rio, who has at last recollected seeing the knife in Mercidio's possession, is on his way to the saloon when he sees Mercidio near the cabin. He tracks him there and through the window sees Madge struggling with him. He goes into the cabin where he forces a confession from Mercidio as to the stabbing. In a fight outside the cabin Mercidio is shot. The story ends with a pretty love scene between Madge and Rio.
