Looking to reform the corrupt government of his Old West town, newspaperman Jeff Rose is running for mayor against officeholder Nard Lundy (Edward Andrews). Jeff's campaign lacks the incumbent's muscle and money, and his quest looks hopeless until the arrival of his father-in-law, Capt. Oren Hayes (Pat O'Brien). Joined by three fellow former Texas lawmen (Walter Brennan, Edgar Buchanan, Chill Wills), Oren and his daughter, Hannah, help Jeff fight back against his antagonist's dirty tactics.

I remembered this being a lot better back in 1969 than it was this time around. It seems soooo made for television and although it was amusing, it wasn't hilarious or anything. Great cast.
