Ike loves Louise. She accepts him without consulting her mother. Therefore when the mother chooses the sheriff for her son-in-law, Ike is forced to win the girl by other means than gentle words. Ike, in a field one day, stumbles across a scarecrow. It recalls to him the description of a one-armed bandit for whose capture a reward is offered. He plans to use the dummy in a manner which will bring discredit upon the sheriff. He props up the scarecrow against a barn and runs a hose from the dummy to the interior of the barn. Ike then stations himself inside the barn and holds up all those who pass, delivering his commands through the hose. The sheriff is notified of the presence of the hold-up man, but he is awed and shrinks from the bold, bad man. At the psychological moment, Ike struts upon the scene. He gives the dummy battle and captures him. Ike becomes the hero of the hour and the idol of Louise. At the height of Ike's popularity a farmer appears and accuses Ike of stealing his scarecrow. The rest is soft and plaintive music.
