The town of Jawbone possesses two stagecoach lines, which makes for competition between the two lines, one represented by the "Trust" and the other by the "Independents." And, the "trust" line represented the worst element and the "independent" the best. Jed Black heads the 'trust" and is surrounded by a bunch of dis-reputables and dog-henchmen, and John Grayson, head of the 'independent' is about to get run out of business because he is less aggressive and more honest than his competitor, Jed Black.
