This is a story of illicit whisky trade with the Indians, told in two interesting, carefully-produced reels. Many Indians and frontier soldiers appear and for a novel turn to the situations we are shown a running fight between the soldiers on a train and the Indians on horseback. The Indian maid, hopelessly in love with the young army officer who is engaged to the Colonel's daughter, is charmingly portrayed. - The Moving Picture World, November 1, 1913
