Synopsis: After Sabra marries cowboy Yancey Cravat against her parents' wishes, the newlyweds travel to Oklahoma to participate in a land rush for territory taken from the Indians. Settling down in their new community, Yancey becomes locally prominent as the editor of the town newspaper. When he turns down an offer to run for governor because his oil-money backers would demand more property from the Indians, Sabra's disapproval drives Yancey to leave.
