A Romance of the Northwest

A good climax

The closing scenes bring this story up to a good climax, in spite of the rather conventional opening. The manner in which Jules pursues the card sharp and brings him back to justice was very realistically portrayed. This is somewhat stronger than the average offering of this type. - The Moving Picture World, March 21, 1914

Jules LeFevre. a young French-Canadian trapper, is in love with Alice, the factor's daughter. Alice admires Jules, but does not give her consent to the marriage. At this point Dick Phillips, a corporal of the Northwest Mounted Police, is sent to Caribou to establish a barracks. He and Alice become interested in each other and this interest soon ripens into love. Jules is too much of a man to entertain animosity against his rival. Bob Green, Alice's father, has a passion for gambling. In a game of cards with Dan Marks, gambler and bad man, Green is fleeced of all his own money. Desperate, he takes a large sum of money belonging to the Hudson Bay Company and loses that also. Too late he discovers that he has been tricked. In the dispute that follows Marks uses his revolver, wounding Green in the arm, and then makes his escape to the river bank. There he shoves off all the canoes but the one he himself is using, thus checking pursuit. Alice, agonized over the plight of her father, appeals to Jules and Dick for aid, declaring she will marry the man who returns the money and saves her father from disgrace. Dick starts the chase on horseback. Jules goes for his canoe. Luckily, he finds the canoe which had been set adrift, lodged against the bank on the opposite side of the river. He swims the river and takes up the pursuit in his canoe. Jules overtakes the gambler and after an exciting battle in the water, overpowers him. Dick arrives to find his rival the victor. Jules, however, seeing that Alice loves only Dick, gives up his claim on the girl.
