In a picturesque canyon of the Rockies, Iron Arm. a young Indian chief, accidentally discovers a rich gold mine: this is overseen by Blake, a gambler and desperado, who plans with the Indian to buy the ranch on which the mine is located from its poor owner who knows nothing of it. The two schemers grow rich from the mine, but the Indian is unhappy for he has grown to love the beautiful daughter of the swindled owner. While dividing profits this letter arrives: "Jackson Blake: Sir, we thought you and Iron Arm honest, but find you knew of the mine and robbed us. We are starving and to be dispossessed tomorrow.

    A Western story of strong action based upon the love of an Indian for a white girl. There is a dishonest character in the play who takes all the income of a mine and allows the rightful owner to be dispossessed when the mine is producing thousands. There is a thrilling chase after a fight in a barroom in which the Indian gets a part of the gold and flees. He is captured, but escapes and succeeds in getting the gold to its rightful owners, and then he plunges into the forest and disappears. The writer does not remember seeing any of this firm's work before, and finds much to commend in this film. The action is good, and the photography in the main is quite satisfactory, though here and there weak places appear in the film. These could be easily remedied, however, and the remainder of the picture is sufficiently good to warrant it. If such pictures as this are released there will be no question about the value and interest of the service - The Moving Picture World, March 12, 1910
