That'’s an awful lot
of money, Dowd.

it'’s $40 a sack.

But $40?That'’s the price.

On account
of the flour situation.

00:03:55,278 --> 00:03:57,149
It'’s downright thievery,
that'’s what it is.

He'’s profiteering,
that'’s what he's doing,
63
00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,860
because he knows, on account of
the heavy snows in the passes,
64
00:04:11,903 --> 00:04:13,557
there ain'’t no flour coming in.
65
00:04:13,601 --> 00:04:16,517
But he'’s got plenty because I
saw it over at his place myself.
66
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,823
And he'’s selling it for as much
as folks can pay and more.

just gotta go hungry.

What you'’re saying
is serious business, Milt.

mind seeing get hurt.

Sure he does.
Just looks the other way.

00:04:38,365 --> 00:04:39,757
Guess I better get over there,

look the right way.
78
00:04:44,022 --> 00:04:46,895
Well, I'’m not asking that you
start arresting people, sheriff.
79
00:04:46,938 --> 00:04:51,682
I'’m only asking
that you head off
some real serious trouble.
80
00:04:51,726 --> 00:04:57,209
Well, can'’t rightly stop people
from selling what they got,

askin'’ what they want
for it, now can I, Ed?
82
00:04:59,647 --> 00:05:02,389
Course you can, if it'’s in
the public interest to do so.
83

Look good in print,
but that wouldn'’t stop nothing.

Are you saying
you'’re not gonna do anything?
87
00:05:14,009 --> 00:05:18,013
I'’m saying that if a man
wants to sell something
that belongs to him,
88
00:05:18,056 --> 00:05:20,058
he'’s got the right to ask
a million dollars for it
89
00:05:20,102 --> 00:05:21,669
and you got
the right not to buy it,
90
00:05:21,712 --> 00:05:23,192
and that'’s all I'm saying.
91
00:05:23,235 --> 00:05:27,370
Look, Sheriff, if those passes
are blocked with snow,
92
00:05:27,414 --> 00:05:30,982

we'’re gonna have trouble here
this winter.

And it'’s gonna keep
getting worse.
96
00:05:36,553 --> 00:05:39,295
The people know we'’ve gotta
have law and order here.
97
00:05:39,339 --> 00:05:41,558
When people get hungry,
they forget a lot of things.
98
00:05:41,602 --> 00:05:44,518
Now, all I'’m suggesting
is that you confiscate the flour
99
00:05:44,561 --> 00:05:47,608
that'’s being hoarded and
sold at highwaymen'’s prices.
100
00:05:47,651 --> 00:05:49,218
Then split up what
you'’ve taken in and sell it
101
00:05:49,261 --> 00:05:51,873
to the people who need it,
at the regular price.
102
00:05:51,916 --> 00:05:55,659
Then, if you have to,
throw the profiteers
who resist in jail.
103
00:05:55,703 --> 00:05:57,792
Won'’t work.
Why not?
104
00:05:57,835 --> 00:06:00,577
Ain'’t nothing in any
of my books that says
105
00:06:00,621 --> 00:06:03,058
that I got the right
to confiscate property.
106
00:06:03,101 --> 00:06:06,191
Now, I know the law
and I'’ve got no precedent.
107
00:06:06,235 --> 00:06:09,151
And as long as
I'’m sheriff here, I'm gonna
be a law-abiding sheriff.
108
00:06:09,194 --> 00:06:11,414
Sometimes you have
to make a precedent.
109
00:06:11,458 --> 00:06:14,025
I'’ll face up the law-breaking
if I have to.
110
00:06:14,069 --> 00:06:17,333
In my time, Mr. Cullen,
I'’ve gunned down men
111
00:06:17,377 --> 00:06:19,727
because the law
was on my side.
112
00:06:19,770 --> 00:06:23,600

there ain'’t nobody
breaking the law.

what'’s got to be done.

we'’ve got a right
to take action.

And let this be our flag.

Since now
you'’re a provisioner,
you'’re gonna get $25 a sack.
128

That means that
you made a profit.

is gonna be distributed and sold

Aww, he did--Ah, Milt, let me
speak for myself.
139

Maybe you'’re right, Sheriff.
140
00:08:08,009 --> 00:08:09,967
Maybe these men
have no legal right
to do what they'’re doing.
141

there are other laws,

with hungry women and kids.
143

Ain'’t you gonna arrest them

Our families are hungry,

[ horse whinnying ]
339
00:20:14,300 --> 00:20:15,649
No, no, no!
340
00:20:15,692 --> 00:20:17,390
No, no, no, Cullen,
let me out of this.
341
00:20:17,433 --> 00:20:18,782
Save--I'’ll give you anything
you want. Anything.
342
00:20:18,826 --> 00:20:21,002
Save your prayers.I'’ll give you a new newspaper.
343
00:20:21,045 --> 00:20:22,264
Why don'’t you tell them
that at the trial?
344
00:20:22,308 --> 00:20:24,223
Look, can'’t I square this?
345
00:20:24,266 --> 00:20:26,486
Sure, later.
346
00:20:38,802 --> 00:20:41,065
[ crowd grumbling ]
347
00:20:51,554 --> 00:20:53,774
Where are you men going?
348
00:20:53,817 --> 00:20:56,646
There'’s flour being hoarded
in this town, sheriff
and we'’re gonna find it.
349
00:20:56,690 --> 00:20:59,475
And we'’re gonna search
every store, house, and barn
'’till we get our hands on it.
350
00:20:59,519 --> 00:21:02,130
You can'’t do that.Can'’t we though?
351
00:21:02,173 --> 00:21:04,828
Move aside.You start invading
people'’s homes
352
00:21:04,872 --> 00:21:07,744
there'’s gonna be shooting
and bloodshed and I won'’t
stand for that.
353
00:21:07,788 --> 00:21:09,964
You'’re just
a little too late, sheriff.
354
00:21:10,007 --> 00:21:11,487
Cullen'’s to blame for this.
355
00:21:11,531 --> 00:21:13,968
He goaded you into taking
the law into your own hands.
356
00:21:14,011 --> 00:21:16,231
Because the law wouldn'’t
do nothing itself
357
00:21:16,275 --> 00:21:18,668
Gallagher and Dowd,
they know where the flour is.
358
00:21:18,712 --> 00:21:20,757
[ crowd chattering ]Looks like real trouble.
359
00:21:20,801 --> 00:21:23,325
Sheriff'’s standing upto them.
360
00:21:23,369 --> 00:21:26,154
This is our chance to get
on the side of the law.
361
00:21:26,197 --> 00:21:28,548
What'’s going on then?
362
00:21:28,591 --> 00:21:30,289
Didn'’t you deliver
Mr. Cullen'’s message?
363
00:21:34,293 --> 00:21:36,382
Sheriff, Ed Cullen--Never mind Ed Cullen.
364
00:21:36,425 --> 00:21:37,905
He'’s caused enough damage.But--
365
00:21:37,948 --> 00:21:39,733
Started
this whole ugly mess.
366
00:21:39,776 --> 00:21:42,213
He'’s on his way here
with flour. Tons of it.
367
00:21:42,257 --> 00:21:43,432
How do you know?
368
00:21:43,476 --> 00:21:44,868
I was in Salt Lake with him
when he got it.
369
00:21:44,912 --> 00:21:47,349
That'’s a tall tale.
How about the snow?
370
00:21:47,393 --> 00:21:49,438
Ain'’t enough snow to stop
flatbeds with runners,
371
00:21:49,482 --> 00:21:50,657
even some rolling on wheels.
372
00:21:50,700 --> 00:21:51,919
Ah, don'’t listen to him.
373
00:21:51,962 --> 00:21:54,008
They just sent him
over here to keep us quiet.
374
00:21:54,051 --> 00:21:55,966
Everybody knows that
the passes are high with snow.
375
00:21:56,010 --> 00:21:57,359
Nothing'’s coming in
for weeks.
376
00:21:57,403 --> 00:21:59,013
Ed Cullen got through
like I told you
377
00:21:59,056 --> 00:22:00,449
and he'’s on his way here.
378
00:22:00,493 --> 00:22:03,496
Told you,
they don'’t believe him.
379
00:22:03,539 --> 00:22:06,020
That ain'’t gonna stop them
from searching for that flour.
380
00:22:06,063 --> 00:22:08,022
Well, maybe we can.
381
00:22:08,065 --> 00:22:11,373
Kind of nice, bein'’
on this side of the law.
382
00:22:11,417 --> 00:22:12,505
Come on.
383
00:22:14,115 --> 00:22:15,551
[ crowd chattering ]
384
00:22:18,249 --> 00:22:20,034
We'’re here to help you,
sheriff.
385
00:22:20,077 --> 00:22:21,775
No need for that.You got a couple
386
00:22:21,818 --> 00:22:24,517
of loud-mouthed troublemakers
over here who need shutting up.
387
00:22:24,560 --> 00:22:27,607
Ain'’t that it?I can handle it, Gallagher.
388
00:22:27,650 --> 00:22:28,956
Well, we think
maybe you can'’t.
389
00:22:28,999 --> 00:22:30,784
I tell you,
Cullen'’ on his way.
390
00:22:30,827 --> 00:22:33,569
And I can handle him
and I will too.
391
00:22:33,613 --> 00:22:35,615
Now all of you,
go on back to your homes.
392
00:22:35,658 --> 00:22:36,703
MILT:
We want that flour!
393
00:22:36,746 --> 00:22:37,921
[ crowd shouts ]
394
00:22:50,107 --> 00:22:51,848
Put that gun down,
Gallagher.
395
00:22:53,197 --> 00:22:54,024
Do as he says.
396
00:22:57,637 --> 00:23:00,814
[ crowd buzzing ]
397
00:23:07,995 --> 00:23:09,039
All right, let'’s have
all of them.
398
00:23:12,695 --> 00:23:15,524
Now, these men with me
are deputy marshals.
399
00:23:15,568 --> 00:23:17,047
They'’ll take real good care
of the gougers,
400
00:23:17,091 --> 00:23:18,875
but it'’ll be done legally.
401
00:23:18,919 --> 00:23:21,704
I was wrong
when I told you...
402
00:23:21,748 --> 00:23:24,228
"Take the law
into your own hands."
403
00:23:24,272 --> 00:23:25,142
Mob rule isn'’t the answer.
404
00:23:27,101 --> 00:23:28,319
But I hope we can build
the kind of town
405
00:23:28,363 --> 00:23:30,017
in which that never
has to happen again.
406
00:23:30,060 --> 00:23:31,801
Now, there'’s enough
flour here
407
00:23:31,845 --> 00:23:32,715
for everyone
for the whole winter.
408
00:23:34,500 --> 00:23:35,762
All right,
line up and get it.
409
00:23:35,805 --> 00:23:37,764
Regular prices,
$25 a sack.
410
00:23:37,807 --> 00:23:39,983
[ crowd shouting ]
411
00:23:40,027 --> 00:23:42,072
Hey wait, wait a minute men.
Wait a minute.
412
00:23:42,116 --> 00:23:43,944
I say we pay double
413
00:23:43,987 --> 00:23:45,641
and the difference goes
to raise money
414
00:23:45,685 --> 00:23:48,122
for a new press
for Ed Cullen.
415
00:23:48,165 --> 00:23:50,341
Well, I'’ll chip in my share.
How about the rest of you?
416
00:23:50,385 --> 00:23:51,342
[ crowd shouting ]
417
00:23:54,215 --> 00:23:56,565
Still looking for a job?I sure am.
418
00:23:56,609 --> 00:23:58,480
Well, I'’ve got an opening
for a printer'’s devil.
419
00:23:58,524 --> 00:24:00,308
Printer'’s devil?
420
00:24:00,351 --> 00:24:02,484
Don'’t exactly know what
that is, but I'’ll take it.
421
00:24:02,528 --> 00:24:04,617
Folks always said
I was going to Hades.
422
00:24:06,532 --> 00:24:07,794
In no time,
with the help
423
00:24:07,837 --> 00:24:09,796
of just about
everybody in town,
424
00:24:09,839 --> 00:24:12,538
except Doughy Lucas,
Dowd, and Gallagher
425
00:24:12,581 --> 00:24:14,278
who were sent to jail,
426
00:24:14,322 --> 00:24:16,890
Ed Cullen rebuilt
his newspaper.
427
00:24:16,933 --> 00:24:19,153
For years, as long
as Cullen published,
428
00:24:19,196 --> 00:24:22,548
a flour sack flew over
his newspaper building
429
00:24:22,591 --> 00:24:26,290
and appeared on the masthead
on page one.
