Loner rider Singin' Sandy Saunders rides into town to discover local ranchers are being victimized by a land-grabbing villain who controls the water supply and wants their land.

Kincade controls the area's water supply and is about to force the ranchers into contracts at exorbitant rates. Government Agent Saunders has a plan that will open up the lost river and dry up Kincade's supply. So he gets the ranchers to insist on a clause that Kincade's land will revert to the public if he fails to deliver water.—Maurice VanAuken <[email protected]>
