Heinie is in love with Gale, the constable's daughter, and she returns his love, but the constable does not like Heinie. Bill, a traveling salesman for a fake jewelry house, arrives and dazzles Gale. Heinie proposes to Gale and is accepted. Heinie and Bill fight. Bill licks Heinie and Gale shifts her affections to the victor. Her father receives word that there is a white slaver around, whose method of carrying country girls to the city is to lock them in a trunk. Seeing Bill asleep on the porch, Heinie slips up behind him and cuts his belt. Bill is busy holding up his pants and cannot fight back. Gale, in cleaning Bill's room, finds a lot of jewelry. She hears Bill coming and hides in the trunk. Heinie decides to commit suicide and, placing the gun to his head, fires. But the shot hits the horses attached to Bill's wagon and they run away. The trunk, with Gale in it, falls off the wagon, and rolls off down a cliff. It is smashed and Gale gets out. The constable misses his daughter. Hops into a flivver and starts for the depot. Bill misses his trunk and starts back to the hotel for it. Gale tries to pull herself up the cliff. Heinie determines to end his life by hanging and throws a rope over a tree. The end of it goes down the cliff to Gale. Poor Heinie is pulled off the ground, and is saved just in time by Gale. Bill and the father meet and the latter demands his daughter.
