With his faithful Indian companion Tonto, the daring and resourceful mask writer of the plains let the fight for law and order in the early western United States. Nowhere in the pages of history can one find a greater champion of justice. Return with us now to those thrilling days of yesteryear. From out of the past come the thundering hoofbeats of the great horse Silver. The lone ranger rides again. Come on silly, let's go big fella. Are you silly? After the lone ranger and Tonto captured an outlaw named Hans Albert, the mask man's Indian friend took the prisoner to jail in Casper City. As soon as he saw the hand bill describing the outlaw, Sheriff Tom Cherry put hands behind bars. Then he returned to his desk and compared the serial numbers of the paper money Tonto gave him with a long list on another hand bill. Hans Albert have that money in saddlebag when we capture him this morning. Oh God, every bill I've looked at so far is on the list. We think all money on list there, Sheriff. If you're right, this accounts for $5,000 of a stolen cat. I hope we could find the rest. Well, maybe Luke Moody and gang have rest of money. That's scum. Color named Hans work with gang. That's true, we might be able to make him talk. He'll already talk. He'll draw map and tell mask friend and Tonto where find Luke and gang. What mask friend are you talking about? Mask friend called Lone Ranger. The Lone Ranger? Ah, him on way to hide out now. Well, you mean to say you know the Lone Ranger? Ah, me, no long time. You said your name was Tonto. That's right. Now, me, me, no, Sheriff. Hold on. What's your hurry? Let me go after Lone Ranger. If you wait for a few minutes, I'll get a posse and go with you. Well, me wait. Good, good. Get him up scout. Fifteen minutes later, Sheriff Cherry left deputies to guard the prisoner in jail. While he and five picked possemen rode out of town with Tonto. How much of a stark does the Lone Ranger have on us? About four hours, Sheriff. We'll have to ride hard to catch up with him before he reaches the hideout. How far is the hideout? Lone Ranger, show me map. You take one day to get there. Spare your horses, boys. As soon as we join the masked man, the better I like it. Get him in there. Come on, get him. Shortly after noon the next day, Luke Moody and the two men with him stood in front of the well-concealed shack in the Dakota Hills. The outlaws named Rome and Webb listened for the sound of approaching hoop beats, while Luke Moody threw a half-smoked cigarette to the ground, grinding the tobacco into the rock-screwed soil with a heavy foot. We muttered. Hands should be back here by this time. Hey, listen. Well, Ryder's coming this way. Maybe it's Hans. Hans had come from the east. That Ryder's coming from town. It's Muley. Bringing supplies from town. He's traveling fast. Yeah, too fast. Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Stay there. What's the idea of traveling so fast, Muley? A pace like that could kill a horse. I was in a hurry to get here, boys. What's wrong? Someone in town recognize it? No, no. No one in town knows me, Luke. They shouldn't. You're the only one of us who hasn't been written up in any handbills. I've got good news. A web. Take the saddle off my black while I go inside and tell Luke and Rome about it. All right, Muley. After I bought the supplies we needed, Luke, I stopped in the cafe in town. That's no surprise. A soldier was there asking the barkeep to let him buy on credit. Nothing new about that, Muley. I know. But when the barkeep turned him down, the soldier said he'd have plenty of cash to pay what he owes on Thursday. What happens then? He and all the soldiers in this part of the country collect the wages due to them for the last six months. How do you know? I bought the soldiers some drinks and started asking questions. He told me all about the payroll. Hey, a payroll would be worth going after. You've gone right. Hey, is that coffee hot? Yeah. Well, I'll get a cup. How is the payroll being sent to the forts? Well, on the express car of the Northern Pacific. Well, that means a train robbery. Shooting our way into an express car won't be easy. We'll not have to rob the train to get it, Luke. All right. The payroll will be unloaded at the finally station. The army will pick it up there tomorrow afternoon and take care of getting it to the forts and the territory. The soldiers in Fort Abraham will get it there after tomorrow. How will the army move it? In a wagon with grub and ammunition. Well, then all we have to do is stop the wagon. There's the right room. There's only one trouble. Robbing the army is a lot different from any other kind of holdup. Federal agents will be on our trail. Yeah. For a share of the payroll, I'd risk a tangle with federal men. We'll not tangle with them if we can help it. I figured we'd come back here after the robbery and hide out, Luke. No one will be able to find us. No, no. That's out, Muley. When we get the payroll, we'll keep going. We're going away. Across the Badlands to the Canadian border. There isn't a lawman alive who could track us through the Badlands. You know how to get through them? Sure. I've heard of fellas that got lost in the Badlands and died there. We'll not die there, Rome. I know the way through them, too. Well, in that case, it's all settled. By this time tomorrow night, we'll have the army payroll. At 3 o'clock for next afternoon, Tato, Sheriff Cherry and the posseman drew rain outside the upload hideout. They dismounted and looked around. On the place that's deserted, John. Maybe the lone rangers already captured the gang. the gang know him not capture gang well how do you know and you look at tracks for riders left here a long time ago here book with the silver alone rangers horse not right in here about our goal leave indian sign here and ground do pebbles arrange like that mean something fine mean lone ranger want me following will you be able to follow us tracks from here me follow and let's go hit the saddle boy we'll continue our lone ranger adventure in just a moment sheriff sam is a boy of ten he busts right in the robbers den and gets his man

Muley six soldiers put the payroll in a covered wagon and left town they're heading west we'll go after him Luke and his men followed the wagon tracks for several miles then the outlaw leaders signal to hold boys the wagon tracks are heading for dead man's cancer yeah you're right those soldiers are jug heads to go through there we're lucky they don't know anybody there's a shortcut through the hills and by taking it we'll reach the canyon ahead of them I will wait on the rim for that wagon getting a payroll will be as easy as falling off a cliff get up when the outlaws who reign on the canyon rim they saw a dust cloud in the distance Muley studied it for a moment then said it's a wagon Luke with rifles ready Luke and his men concealed themselves until the wagon entered the canyon then get him boys before the surprise soldiers could return the fire four of them were seriously wounded as the other two sought cover Luke brought them down that does it boys they're all down let's ride to the canyon for and get the payroll Luke Moody was in the lead when the gang entered the canyon leaving his horse at ground hitch he walked toward the wagon when suddenly a wounded soldier fired the shot that struck him Luke went down but as he fell his gun roared the soldier dropped to the ground while you collect their guns I'll see how bad Luke after disarming the wounded soldiers web and Rome smashed the lock on the chest containing the payroll they put the money into their saddlebags and joined Muley at Luke's side you'll not be able to travel boys you gotta get me to a doctor no no no take it easy Luke I saw bones as in Pines station I'll die I'll die if I don't get help but he's unconscious good leave him there but but he planned to hold up it was his idea to clear out of the country you know how to get through the badlands Muley well yes well ride through them just as we planned we've got the payroll I hit the saddle Muley all right half an hour later the lone ranger drew rain on the canyon room a few minutes later he entered the canyon two of the disarmed soldiers had sufficiently recovered from their wounds to help their comrades when they saw the mask

town right after riding hard for several hours Muley Rome and web reach the bad land for a moment Muley looked from the familiar landmarks to the darkening November sky I don't like the looks of those clouds boys I've been watching them too nearly storms blowing up and might be a bad one this time of year might need children before we're through the badlands well there's only one place I know of to find it but we'll have to ride harder reaches all right then come on get up one of the worst storms in the history of Dakota territory swept across the badlands that night in the beginning it was a fine rain then as the temperature dropped rapidly the rain changed to sweet and icy pallets of driven snow that stabbed like sharpened nails Muley and the two men will follow him walk their way grimly towards shelter how much farther do we have to go Muley oh 10 15 minutes on her bring us the chimney rock there a camera there just a free-sided rock formation with a lot of overhang and rocks that'll shield us from the storm but I'd settle for a hole in the ground if I could find one boy so it is to live here I miscalculated we've already reached chimney rock come on here the outlaws dismothered under an overhang at the base of a steep cliff huge rocks on both sides shielded them from the wind and storm Muley took a stubble candle from the saddlebag and lit it for a moment the flame flickered then burned brightly this is as good as being in a cave a lot of travelers must use this place for shelter there's some wood some cow folks might have left it there are there ranches in the badlands yeah sometimes riders come this way looking for straight stock a bunch of blights to him for leaving wood I'll get a fire going how long you figure the storm will last well there's no tellin web sometimes it's sudden other times the last couple of days just have to wait it out later that night the storm began to subside but the roaring wind was loud enough to drown the sound of Silver's hooves at the mighty silver brought the lone ranger close to chimney rock the mask man saw the outlaws camp fire he drew rain the thinning snow revealed three men in the fire life the lone ranger dismounted and guided silver to a giant boulder leaving the stallion in its meager shelter he advanced on foot he stopped and dropped with a cover of a big rock a short distance from the outlaws with a gun in each hand he shouted web newly rolled your comment on your gun the startled gang snatched guns from their holsters but before they could fire the masked man's colts blaze newly staggered and fell with a bullet in the arm as web dropped his gun and collapsed with a wounded shoulder for a moment Rome's pistol wavered uncertainly as he tried to see through the darkness beyond the fire you're a perfect target stop a bullet not a chance of your gun a silver bullet shattered Rome's gun as the outlaw looked around for another weapon the lone ranger called raise your hand break your arms you've been I won't fight a man. I can't see. I give up. What about your pals? They hurt too bad to make any more trouble. It's a crime. Auto! He brings Carol from Cossie from Casper City. We met the soldiers you helped. They told us you were heading for the bad land. Just in time Sheriff. The last of Luke Moody's gang are there beside the fire. Take care of them boys. Put handcuffs on them and then bandage their wounds. Right. Don't try a fast move you scouts. You're all covered. They stole an army payroll, Sheriff. It's in their saddlebags. The soldiers driving the wagon back to Piney Station told us about the ambush. Sheriff sent one deputy back to Piney Station with them to watch Luke Moody. Even though he was wounded I didn't want to take any chances with him. Good for you, Sheriff. Corporal Davis told us how you helped him and his buddies. He must have been. Yes. Him plenty surprised to learn you not outlaw. I told him I wasn't running from the law. Now he knows for sure you weren't. A storm almost ended. Yes, Tunnel. The sheriff and his men will have no trouble taking the prisoners back to town. Aren't you riding with us, mister? No, Sheriff. But before we leave I want to tell you I promised Hans Albert I'd let the law know he helped capture the gang. I'll remember that. Good. Adios, Sheriff. Adios. Goodbye, Tunnel and thanks. That all right. Maybe we meet again sometime. I hope it's soon. So long and good luck. Everything under control, boys? Full capture all handcuffs. As soon as Pete finishes bandaging their wounds we'll be ready to travel, Sheriff. Good. Who shot me? Who opened fire on us? You mean you don't know? We never got a look at the critter.
