Because incriminating evidence of the judge's scandals falls into the hands of the chauffeur's wife, she is tailroaded to jail on a trumpd-up morals charge. The taxi driver, bent, on exposing the judge, discovers the latter's implication in a notorious murder charge and uses this infor- mation in forcing a confession from the judge relative to his indictment. Phillips Holmes is featured in the cast as the taxi driver; Walter Huston plays the crooked judge, and Anita Page has the most dramatic role of her career as the frame-up victim. Other prominent players include Lewis Stone, Mary Carlisle, John Miljan, Jean Hersholt, Tully Marshal and Noel Francis. The picture was directed by W. S. Van Dyke, who ac- complished such wonders with “Trad- er Horn” and “Tarzan The Ape Man.” The dramatic material on which the plot is based leaves room for a wide variety of powerful episodes such as the vivid sequence in which the “stool pigeon” forces his entry into the girl's room in order to “frame” her; the gruelling persecu- tion of the taxi driver when he at- tempts to interfere with court in- justice, and the exciting incidents which entail the crooked judge’s ulti- mate downfall.

The Fargo repeal advocate ran well in the cities but it was an- other case of “hearing from the country” in North Dakota elec- tions.
