  Stagecoach owner Dan Hammond (Francis McDonald) is opposed to statehood for Idaho and will stop at nothing to influence the upcoming vote. He kills the editor of the town's newspaper, a statehood supporter. But now he must deal with the editor's sister, Barbara Meredith (Linda Stirling), who not only takes over the paper but also dons a black suit and mask to take care of the problem–just like her famous ancestor Zorro. This is a 12-episode serial with good "cliffhangers" between episodes.
