Plot

A scheming newspaper publisher, Crawford, conspires with the wealthy Madison Pike and a pair of henchmen, Jackson and Case, to make the New Mexico Territory's citizens of Bitter Springs pay a toll to use a private road. Pike is then ambushed and killed.

Red Ryder's aunt, a rancher known to all as The Duchess, believes herself to be Pike's only legal heir. When she sends Red to stake her claim, Crawford and others attempt to ruin her, then kill her, but Red and sidekick Little Beaver head off her runaway stagecoach.

Red is appointed town marshal and attempts to get to the bottom of a scheme. Little Beaver is kidnapped by Jackson, but by pretending to be shot with a gun filled with blanks, Red is able to surprise the killers and thieves and restore order to Bitter Springs.
