Speaker 1 (00:00):
H un Tier Towns, the saga of the Roaring West,
(00:21):
hon Tiertown, Help Haco, Diane, Calgary, Tomson.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
Huntier Town.
Speaker 3 (00:39):
Here is the adventurous story of the early West.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
The Tames and the Untamed on.
Speaker 3 (00:43):
The Pecos, the Powder River, Dad's City, the Poker Flat.
Speaker 2 (00:46):
These are the towns.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
They fought to live in and lived to fight for,
seeming crucibles of pioneer freedom.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Un Tier Town.
Speaker 4 (01:38):
They say the Frontier is pretty tough, But I live
smack dab in the middle of the Frontier in a
rough and ready countdown known.
Speaker 5 (01:46):
As Ghose Wheels.
Speaker 4 (01:48):
Now I think it's half.
Speaker 5 (01:49):
As tough as folks say.
Speaker 4 (01:51):
Who am I, Well, I'm about the only lawyer in
the county and my handle is Chad Remington. Of course,
I'm not trying to tell you that we don't have
our fair share of trouble and sudden death. But what
I am nam when to say, is Frontier or not.
The troubles we have we know how to handle. Well. Now,
(02:11):
I guess it's up to me to back up what
I said by giving you a case in point. It
was just a few weeks ago that Cherokee old Man
and the ex medicine man was with me riding back
from Eldorado to the county seat where I just tried
the case and lost it. Now I was feeling pretty
good about Cherokee, in his heartiest manner, was trying to
(02:32):
buck me up.
Speaker 6 (02:35):
Had my down passed, and Gloris brand I risk recall
to you that famous old motto.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
At first you don't succeed, why try again.
Speaker 4 (02:43):
And I'm sure your advice is well, man, Cherokee, but
this is one case I can't.
Speaker 5 (02:48):
Try try again.
Speaker 4 (02:50):
I'm afraid that the jury was right, that my client
actually was guilty.
Speaker 6 (02:55):
So I guess that's the difference between us. Any case
I get, I keep working on.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
He get.
Speaker 4 (03:00):
She'll right about that. The case is you get, You
work on until there is a one bottle left.
Speaker 3 (03:06):
Ah. Yes, yes, indeed that's one of the See look
at that.
Speaker 6 (03:12):
That's like the days of forty nine with those lumbering
big wagons coming down the path up ahead.
Speaker 4 (03:17):
Yeah, except those aren't kind of stogo wagons. From here.
They look like freighters. Now, it wouldn't surprise me. And
if they were hauling supplies up to where they're building
the new railroad that's gonna come into Eldorado. Yeahs, you're
probably right about that, Chad, And that's a different I
think it's a rotten shave.
Speaker 6 (03:33):
You don't make Dosrias railroad junction point instead.
Speaker 4 (03:36):
Of El Dorado. Oh, mister, I can't agree with you
there the first place. Elderado is a larger town. It's
a county seat. They do three times of business. They're
compared to what we do in our little one horse town.
Speaker 2 (03:48):
Yeah right, say, Chad, what do you think happened to
those wagons? I can't see him now.
Speaker 4 (03:54):
The road through that pass winds down through the little
canyon the other side of the Santa Rogan Solly Blue.
Speaker 2 (04:01):
Plays his tad what it stops?
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Coming from the canyon those wagons went into.
Speaker 2 (04:05):
You see the little puffy gun smoking.
Speaker 4 (04:07):
Yet I do see I do. It's a long haul
and we may not get there in time to do
any good, but come on, at least we.
Speaker 2 (04:12):
Can always try it.
Speaker 4 (04:25):
By the time we got there, there was nothing to see.
That is, there was nothing to see but signs of
what had happened. I was born on a ranch and
owning a small one. The signs were fairly unmistakable. The
Cherokee and I had to smilet it and poked around.
Speaker 2 (04:44):
Out tad.
Speaker 4 (04:45):
Hey, do you know what the treaty was all about?
I don't. Yeah, I'm not saying it's as plain as
the those on your.
Speaker 5 (04:51):
Face, but or not.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
But it's just about his red Sir, I said, that
is so knowing something tended Cherokee. Look here, you see
these these feathers.
Speaker 5 (05:00):
On the ground.
Speaker 4 (05:02):
If I'm not mistaken, those feathers came out of some
Indians war dress.
Speaker 6 (05:05):
You mean to stand there, but your egal eyes sprinted
up and tell the Indians ambush those waggings.
Speaker 4 (05:10):
I mean to tell you that they were Indians here,
and judging from the feathers, comanches th battles me though,
First apparently the wagon Theirs didn't fight back, and second,
after the Indians rode off, the wagons apparently proceeded as
usual somehow or other. This attack looks like it might
have been re arranged.
Speaker 2 (05:31):
And it beat me. Those wagons were raiders hauling railroad supplies.
But what Indians want with stuff like that?
Speaker 4 (05:38):
And it beats me too, jerkie. But since he's coming
the sundown, I'm not gonna waste any more time standing
out here speculating yep, I'm climbing back on that broken
down mustang. I ran it from the old Liberty stable
and heading home for Gustriels. Well with all I had
(06:04):
to do in dos Rios after a five day absence,
must admit I didn't give the unexplained wagon attack much
more for it. In fact, nobody in dos Rios was
particularly interested, because everyone was talking about the new man
who'd moved to town chat from Kansas, or so he said,
by the name of Doc stone Bender. Not only had
(06:25):
he moved to dos Rios, but he leased a store
building with a large store room and immediately started to
option property all over our valley, except for a few
pieces that he bought up. Well, I hadn't been back
in town more than twenty four hours when Doc Stonevender
came to call on me.
Speaker 7 (06:41):
If I make a long story short, runnington, if we
can get together on the price, I'm prepared to take
an option on your range and pay.
Speaker 4 (06:48):
You three hundred dollars for it. Well, a stone Vender,
this is sheer curiosity on my part, but you must
have a mighty good reason for wanting to tie up
all the property. I've heard you here in Dostrial stan,
I sure I have if he When I operate, I
operate bag.
Speaker 7 (07:05):
That's how I've made my money, and that's all I
happen to.
Speaker 5 (07:08):
Operate on the scale I do.
Speaker 4 (07:10):
Yeah, I see. But what's your reason? From the wagonloads
of that stuff I've seen being unloaded and taken into
your store, You've got a heavy investment already in this valley.
Speaker 7 (07:20):
I'll tell you my reason. I've done a lot of
looking around. I've decided Dosrios Valley is gonna boom.
Speaker 5 (07:28):
Neither does well.
Speaker 7 (07:29):
It's gonna make me a rich man, a very rich man. However,
you haven't given me your answer yet about your own place.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
I'm afraid the answer isn't wrong. Perhaps I'm a little
sentimental about it. My father homestead of the ranch now,
I was born there. But on the other hand, looking
to get married someday. If there's any easy money to
be made here, I'd like to make it too.
Speaker 7 (07:52):
Certainly, a lawyer doesn't have to make his money out
of a few acres of land.
Speaker 4 (07:57):
When the boom.
Speaker 5 (07:58):
Comes, you'll make find me out of your profession.
Speaker 4 (08:01):
That's right. If the boom comes. Now a man of fact,
in my opinion, any land boom in these part sort
of hit Eldorado with the lilroad coming in there, not dosrios.
Speaker 5 (08:11):
Oh, I think they'll have a quick spurted Eldorado.
Speaker 7 (08:14):
But well, i'm a busy man runnington. I'll raise my
offer the five hundred for the option if that'll interest you.
Speaker 4 (08:23):
No thanks, mister stone Lender. If you're going to get
rich out of those.
Speaker 5 (08:26):
For yours, sow my.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
I'm glad you came down here to the stable.
Speaker 4 (08:41):
Chad saw that stranger what's his name, stone vendor upstairs?
Speaker 2 (08:45):
You off?
Speaker 4 (08:46):
Did you get him as a client? Oh?
Speaker 5 (08:47):
No, such luck.
Speaker 4 (08:49):
I wanted to take an option to buy my ranch.
Offered me five hundred dollars for the option. It'd probably
take me a fortune for the ranch if he ever
bought it.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Five hundred dollars just for an option. But that man
must be made of money first, as I think of
it as a lovely thinking be made of For.
Speaker 4 (09:06):
He may be made of money, but I don't think
too much of his brains.
Speaker 6 (09:10):
Hi, dear young man, heity man with the money he
must have, must have brains to spare the business act
humans sticking out of his ears.
Speaker 2 (09:18):
A man like that doesn't have to drink whiskey. He
can drink champagne.
Speaker 4 (09:21):
Well, if my ranch is ever worth what Doc stone
Vendor thinks it's going. But you can have all the
champagne you want to drink at my wedding, which reminds
me Libby and the Jeudge of good nuts and bite
me for supper. It just about time I was getting
over there.
Speaker 2 (09:35):
You lucky young devil, having a beauteous damasell like Libby
interested in you.
Speaker 6 (09:40):
He's here to con play to her or follow my
sinceris reguards if he can so to.
Speaker 2 (09:45):
Date for that wedding party soon.
Speaker 6 (09:47):
I must admit I'm getting printed thirsty for champagne.
Speaker 4 (10:01):
I miss the god Chad. But no thanks, Judge, I'm
afraid your daughter really doesn't approve miss certainly don't.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
That's a bad one. Daddy smokes them outside like he
changed light.
Speaker 7 (10:11):
But I'm sick and tired of sweeping up ashes off
the parlor rug ten times a day.
Speaker 2 (10:16):
Young lady.
Speaker 8 (10:16):
Don't forget who paid for that parlor rug.
Speaker 4 (10:19):
Don't let the judge scare you. Let me by all
that talk about playing for rugs. When I get married,
I'm not gonna have a rug in the house.
Speaker 5 (10:26):
I probably can't afford it.
Speaker 4 (10:28):
Well, that's a fine way to make an impression on
your perspective. Excuse me, I think I see someone coming.
I'm not mistaken. It's Cherokee, Ol'd Brannon.
Speaker 2 (10:37):
Hey, Cherokee, is that's you?
Speaker 4 (10:39):
Yes, it is Dad.
Speaker 2 (10:40):
Certainly glad you're steven Town.
Speaker 4 (10:42):
Nothing wrong, Kagy.
Speaker 6 (10:43):
Even jud he been miss living. And to answer your questions,
I don't know if something's wrong, if it's just my imagination,
but if you excuse Dad, I'd like.
Speaker 2 (10:53):
Him to come with me.
Speaker 4 (10:54):
Good night, Cherokee. We just finished up with us. You
know it's not polite to eat and run.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
I haven't eating.
Speaker 6 (11:00):
I run all the way here because I think I
found something to tie right into what happened to those
freak wagons the other.
Speaker 4 (11:05):
Day on the way home from Eldorado Great Wagons, Chad,
I'll tell you about it later, George. Cherokee is right.
I better believe it now. Cherokee grabbed me by the
arm and practically ran me three blocks back to town, then,
(11:26):
turning down the alley behind his Libery stable, walk me
another few hundred feet until we were right behind the
back door to the storeroom. With a big building dark.
Stone Bender had went it two doors away from Dos
Rios's biggest and noisiest saloon. There, Dad must.
Speaker 2 (11:47):
See you those wheel packs there.
Speaker 5 (11:50):
In the dirt.
Speaker 4 (11:51):
Yeah, I could make them out.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
All those nail marks shoes are fastening of the wheels.
Speaker 4 (11:57):
Those aren't the same wheel mark he saw in that
canyon near the there.
Speaker 2 (12:00):
No, or you found the Indian hunters. I don't drink
a quartermell the very party postes mes Cheroke.
Speaker 4 (12:05):
Can you have be dog gun? If I don't think
you're right? Why should those frank wagons we heard being
shut up the other day suddenly appear here in the
alley behind stone Vender's store.
Speaker 2 (12:16):
I knew I wouldn't have gone and gotten you.
Speaker 4 (12:18):
You got me answers? No, not really answers, certainly something
to think about. Come on, I'd hate to be found
snooping in his alley. Let's take a walk, and I.
Speaker 5 (12:28):
Think it's all.
Speaker 4 (12:35):
Well said?
Speaker 2 (12:36):
Got an answers?
Speaker 4 (12:37):
Yet? No, we thought those wagons were haunting railroads. Surprise.
But if stone Bender is interested in the railroad over
old run, oh, why should it be optioning all it? Hey, Cherokee,
you see that buckboard coming toward us. They could he split. Yes,
I do find one thing about horses.
Speaker 2 (12:53):
That team running away.
Speaker 4 (12:55):
Good, great Cherokee with the craves in town to night,
and all the horses at the hitch rack that run
away and start a stampede.
Speaker 2 (13:00):
Billy Blue plays is tad. We've got to stop that
buck and back and come on.
Speaker 6 (13:09):
All right, He.
Speaker 4 (13:15):
Cherokee is a man on the season. Looks like he's fainting.
So here, help me tell you get a round. What happened?
Speaker 8 (13:22):
Is ter?
Speaker 4 (13:22):
All right? The road to get help? No road work
crew worked up?
Speaker 2 (13:30):
Yeah, road work crew.
Speaker 4 (13:32):
You mean it. Eldorado, Yeah, yeah, Eldorado.
Speaker 3 (13:36):
Indians hundreds of them, highte to suit the charity.
Speaker 2 (13:41):
This thing starting to look fit together.
Speaker 4 (13:42):
Look what were the indians? Comanches?
Speaker 6 (13:44):
Yeah, comanches, hundreds of crazy ones.
Speaker 4 (13:48):
Select her shooting rights. The fad is he is? He gone?
It's so shacky.
Speaker 5 (14:03):
He's good.
Speaker 4 (14:04):
What he told us is certainly gonna cost somebody something.
It wouldn't surprise me if it costs it somebody his life.
Speaker 3 (14:22):
We'll return to the second act of the Valley of
Lawless Men are exciting Frontiertown adventure in just a few minutes,
(15:05):
I'm a fum's here song.
Speaker 4 (15:17):
Well with that fellow riding in flado, with the news
that commands you said, attacking the railroad work party and
wipe them out. Not only could Doc Stone, under part
in this mosaic of mystery become more obscure, but with
the nearest cavalry post located much too far away to
be any help.
Speaker 5 (15:34):
I roused out the judge.
Speaker 4 (15:35):
And with Cherokee's help, we soon organized the meet.
Speaker 6 (15:44):
And everyone's trying to talk about no one can.
Speaker 2 (15:48):
Say anything now you know what the facts are.
Speaker 9 (15:53):
There's been an Indian uprising which wiped out the railroad
work Party.
Speaker 2 (15:57):
And we are here to find out what we can
do about it. Judge, I got a question I want
to ask him, all right, aid, although.
Speaker 4 (16:06):
I don't see that this is the time to ask questions.
Speaker 2 (16:09):
That's what I say. We called this meeting to get.
Speaker 4 (16:11):
Some action, not to answer a lot of questions.
Speaker 10 (16:14):
Yes, well when they can, and gets through in his questions.
Speaker 9 (16:18):
I got some questions on my own, All right, Morley,
you two way, let's get to the questions and get
them over with with this here in our railroad work
party being wiped out, can anybody tell me if the
railroad steal's.
Speaker 6 (16:32):
Gonna go ahead with their plans or running their.
Speaker 2 (16:34):
Rails in the old rado. How can anyone over here
answer a question like that, envy time? What difference does
it make with the comments on the warpath.
Speaker 10 (16:49):
Again, I call you a lot difference that can make
judge so happens. I own a lot of land over
here and goes for you.
Speaker 2 (16:57):
So to some of the other folks here, I'll mean,
if I want.
Speaker 10 (17:00):
To see us go out and get shot up fighting
them commission just to help the railroad dild into some
other towel.
Speaker 4 (17:11):
Like sens you.
Speaker 9 (17:13):
Really mean that people have been killed and probably more
people will be killed, and you want to sit the
pilet buy.
Speaker 2 (17:21):
And do nothing about it just to line your own
pubby dead.
Speaker 8 (17:31):
You don't go blame well.
Speaker 3 (17:33):
Engine fighting is risky, it costs time, it costs money,
and I'll be blamed if I want to not only
take a chance on getting shot, but spend my money
when all I'm gonna get out of it. Listen in
an elder eight, don't get the railroad.
Speaker 10 (17:49):
Don't gone down, blame high road not It's not even
how different. Let the cavalry go fight the engine down.
We don't get stampeded in the That's like a lot
of meny. Maybe we'll get the railroad and end up
with some money in the bank. Consider some men nothing botney.
Speaker 6 (18:11):
I never had the argument with.
Speaker 4 (18:13):
All my boon name. You know what it says in
the lab about worshiping lemon.
Speaker 2 (18:18):
I'm friends, friends, I just can't believe folks who are
as decent as I know you are could even feel
this way.
Speaker 3 (18:26):
You'll leave your doors open, You'll beat grub line riders,
You'll boasted up how neighborly Westerners are.
Speaker 2 (18:34):
And still on the slim chance of making a power
for yourselves.
Speaker 3 (18:39):
Don't let those comanches are on slaughtering, keeaching people without
lifting a cake.
Speaker 2 (18:44):
H You know that in hard job, mine was right.
Hu's the cavalry fo r of good heavens. By the
time the cavalry could get up here, we might all
be slaughtered.
Speaker 4 (18:54):
Remington.
Speaker 3 (18:55):
I haven't heard anybody here say they wouldn't fight to
protect their own homes. So why keep threatening everybody by
trying to make.
Speaker 6 (19:05):
It up here that the Indians are lighting our own godsds.
Speaker 2 (19:12):
You got the gabble, you might as well use it.
Speaker 4 (19:15):
The only thing we getting out of.
Speaker 2 (19:16):
This meeting is completely disgusted with a human rights all right, boss,
this meeting stands a jerk.
Speaker 6 (19:34):
It's just like I always knew when I just a
sound like genuine Cherokee and didn't rattlesnake around.
Speaker 4 (19:39):
Yeah, what's that Cherokee?
Speaker 6 (19:40):
The genus hope won't set us is off? Really last
penny you can make? I think I could have sold
any life world for two bits if.
Speaker 2 (19:48):
I didn't tell them it was worth ten dollars.
Speaker 6 (19:50):
Oh, sir, That's why I always said, you say five
dollars is two much?
Speaker 2 (19:55):
You say you want go a few money?
Speaker 4 (19:57):
Very well, in there's a.
Speaker 3 (19:59):
Special advertising inducement. I'm going to offer this miraculous remedy
today for just twenty five cents.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
Sucks.
Speaker 4 (20:07):
I suppose Cherokee is right, Chad, But if those commands
I come over to those they wouldn't dare judge it's
safe around Eldorado because all the mountains and hills to
hide him. This valley's too flat. It certainly would be
a wait a minute, I think I got an idea
(20:28):
idea what Chad and I did to teach the folks
around Deseweos a lesson. You know, Chief gray Bear, don't
you judge the chief of the I don't want to
try years A few years back I got him out
of some trouble. Since I wouldn't may take a fee
for it, he made me promise it someday I let
him return the favor. Well, they all I wanted got
to do with this situation. Nothing right now. But if
(20:49):
you're right out and pay a call on Chief gray
Bear with me, Cherokee, I think we could teach our
friends and neighbors or lesson. They'll never forget. Now, do
(21:10):
you understand?
Speaker 3 (21:10):
She?
Speaker 4 (21:11):
Do you know what I want you to do?
Speaker 5 (21:13):
Me understand, Leamington.
Speaker 4 (21:15):
All you got to do is get your bus to
put on war place the kind of Comanches were, and
pretend you're raiding dost reels.
Speaker 2 (21:22):
That doesn't make good perssions out of it.
Speaker 4 (21:24):
Nothing well we'll do.
Speaker 7 (21:26):
But today Comanche has many white men's rifles, also got
plenty firewater.
Speaker 4 (21:36):
If you could dress up like a command mister, you
holds your horses, let me in your livery stable horses.
Do you know where the commands has got that firewater?
And those rifles?
Speaker 5 (21:48):
Do not know for sure? But here top white man,
give them whiskey and gun.
Speaker 2 (21:56):
I'm a great hornspoon fan. Hey, that's what they throw
it out those wagons.
Speaker 4 (22:00):
The other day. Maybe it's what they got out of
those wagons. But they never storm, they stole them. Why
were the wagons are driving off before we got there?
I'm sure I think it was pre arranged that they
stopped those wagons or did look good?
Speaker 2 (22:13):
And I'm starting to think you're right. But more I
think your friend dot.
Speaker 4 (22:18):
Stone Vendor is the coprit behind it all. Now you're
cook them with spring water. I'll bet that's why Stone
Vendors opts into all that land in those riels, hoping
the railroad to bill there.
Speaker 7 (22:27):
If you say cruise, this be plenty baden white motts
twenty bad.
Speaker 4 (22:34):
Chief, We're not gonna convince our neighbors are that way.
They still think they can make some money out of
it themselves. What a mile commentary on the disgusting weakness
of bortal man. You're right that Chief Gray there. I
have your promise to help, haven't I? Uh me? You
would me do good enough? It's a late moon tonight,
and if you hit those riels just about ten o'clock,
(22:56):
we'll teach those people a lesson they won't forget for
the rest of them their lives, if nothing else that visit.
The Chief gray Bear in the Ota Wander suddenly showed up,
big hearted, dark stone Bender for the miserable sneaking bulcher
he really was, but knowing he'd still have the town's support,
(23:20):
we didn't do a thing until Chief gray Bear engineered
his commanche attack just about ten o'clock, when half the
town was in bed and the other half of the
saloons the redskin Tadle Waves suddenly swept down the main step.
(23:45):
The whole attack didn't take much more in a minute
and went to Judge Jerokee and me trying to help
by blocking exits and getting in the way. No one
was hurt, that is, not physically, but there was a
mighty shaken proud of neighbors gathered in the street. When
the Indians are finally evented, well, Lady's Dreamer nick that.
Speaker 3 (24:06):
I was like, we needed, we need, I say the
time up and get after them, Sir.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
Testament. I'm positive, course.
Speaker 4 (24:16):
One not commands. Oh and what makes you so positive,
mister Stonevender.
Speaker 2 (24:25):
I guess I know what commands when I see one.
Speaker 4 (24:28):
Hey, I guess you'd do it there. But from what
you told me, you've only been out miss cut through
your short time. How come you're able to identify commands.
She's better than we are. Well, i'll tell you why,
because you've been dealing with a commands she were you.
Because you're the low down maverick who's been furnishing them
(24:49):
rifles and feeding them liquor. You've got them to attack
a railroad's work party just to force the railroad to
build here and make money for you.
Speaker 2 (24:56):
Don't don't listen to him. It's either crazy or he's
deliberately liar.
Speaker 4 (25:04):
I don't like that cad a lion.
Speaker 3 (25:07):
