This is a good retelling of Rex Beach's novel, "The Spoilers." Roy Glennister (John Wayne) arrives in Alaska with Helen Chester (Margaret Lindsay) and is greeted by saloon owner Cherry Malotte (Marlene Dietrich) who has staked Flapjack (Russell Simpson) as a partner in Glennister's mine. Problems rise to the fore when the gold commissioner, Alexander McNamara (Randolph Scott), conspires to take over the rights to the mines in the area. A legal fight appears to be impossible, and the result is a bar-room brawl in which Glennister and McNamara fight for the rights to the mine.
