Law and Order on Bar L Ranch (1911)
The cowboys on the 'Bar L' outfit are disposed to disregard the orders of the boss and do very much as they please. His wife has a habit of dominating over him and between the boys and their hilarity, and his wife's peppery tongue, his lot is certainly an unhappy one. One day he comes upon the boys playing and wrestling in the ranch yard, when they should be attending to their duties, and he starts to remonstrate with them. They quickly rope him and suspend him from the ranch yard gate. His wife finds him in his predicament and, after cutting him down, proceeds to abuse him and give him a tongue lashing. Smarting under the sense of his wrongs, he determines to be avenged and employs a gun-fighter to subdue his rebellious cowboys. Concealing his ally in the barn, he goes among the boys and is immediately attacked by the fun-loving punchers. He whistles for his assistant, who now appears, and lines the cowboys up at the point of his gun, when one of the belligerent cowboys recognizes the gun-fighter as his own brother. The tables are turned and the cowboys, reinforced by the assistance of the new employee, carry the boss to the watering trough and give him a thorough soaking. They go away, leaving him stuck in the trough, where his wife finds him later and, she assaults her luckless spouse and then leaves him to ponder on "What's the use?"
