When settlers rush to stake claims in newly opened territory, Sheriff Hopalong Cassidy works to ensure fair dealing—but ruthless varmints have darker plans. After mysterious fires destroy the boundary stakes and claim records, Hopalong must uncover who's behind the sabotage before honest folks lose everything to land-grabbing schemes.

Cactus Brain sets out hunting for moose in country where moose don't exist—a scheme that backfires when the Sheriff gets roped into solving a far more pressing local problem. A quick-witted tall tale that turns the hunter into the hunted in this humorous 1948 Western tale.

When bank robberies plague a showboat, Tom Mix suspects the culprits are hiding in plain sight among the theater company's cast—using their offstage time between scenes to slip away and commit the crimes.
