IN BRIEF: Widow Lucy Marriott runs a meat store in Cherokee with her son Chip. One day a thug named Shep barges in and fires a rifle from the store window. He threatens them if they talk. Meanwhile, Hoppy and California are on a trip to pick up a hundred head of Aberdeen Angus from Ed Allison. While they generally raise whiteface Herefords, Hoppy wants to try the breed on one range. He buys the cattle but balks at paying a $2 trail insurance to Peaslee, the mayor of Cherokee. Allison says Stan Marriott was killed by Peaslee's thug, as was a Cattlemen's Association agent. Sheriff Fred Fancher, facing Peaslee in the street, was killed -- by Shep. Hoppy says he has rustler insurance, "It cost $50, two sixguns at $25 apiece." Hoppy meets Chip and Lucy and learns they have a secret petition signed by 50 ranchers calling for a new election. After Stan was killed, they promised not to produce it and jeopardize the signers. Hoppy wants to force a confrontation, though, and tells Peaslee he'll release the petition. Enlisting the help of ranchers, Hoppy puts away Peaslee. Chip, knowing Shep would again shoot, fills his gun's breech with hot tallow. The gun explodes in Shep's face. Allison is elected sheriff.
