Written by Dorrell and Stuart E. McGowan, the film is about a "ditch rider" and his sidekick who set out to find out who has been causing the accidents at a dam construction site.

Jealous of Mary's attention towards Gene, Conway joins Moore in his scheming actions and hires Bull Dural and his gang to dynamite the water gates and kill the ditch riders.

On his first night on the job, Gene and his friend Frog Millhouse (Smiley Burnette) are almost killed.

Conway and Bull then rob the payroll, accuse Gene of the crime, and encourage Baxter's workmen to revolt by destroying the dam.

Conway and Moore steal the train in a desperate attempt to escape, but they are killed riding into dynamite.
