Plot

Steve Holden is brought in to be a mediator to bring peace between the US Cavalry and the Indians. A local businessman is against the idea so he can continue to sell large amounts of rifles to the warring tribes. He uses the Regiment's Scout Cronin to assassinate the Indian chief and stir up a war. The film's climax reuses the stagecoach attack footage from Stagecoach (1939).
