^B AMES MORLEY, Superintendent of the Crown Hill Oil Refinery, is unable to cope with the
rough element in the works. Jack Hartway asks for a position, and Mr. Hastings discharges
^J Morley. Hartway is duly installed as the new Superintendent and his first act is to put up
again a sign that Rooney, the "bully" has formerly resented. Rooney tears the sign down,
goes to the Office to confront Hartway, is knocked down, and made to nail the sign up again.
But Rooney swears revenge, and sends his tool, Old Grogan, to Hartway with a note, telling him
to leave town in twenty-four hours. Hartway only laughs at the implied threat, and answers that
they can go "as far as they like." They plan to have Old Grogan fire the works.
Hartway has met Hasting's daughter and fallen in love with her.
He is spending the evening with her, when he hears that the plant is on
fire. Hartway rushes away. He finds Rooney in a saloon, accuses
him of the crime, and Rooney tries to escape, but is overtaken by
Hartway and given a thrashing. Jack is about to be knocked down by
two of Rooney's gang, when Mabel, who has seen the fight, shoots one
of them. They get away, but Rooney is arrested and sentenced to prison.
