This Hopalong Cassidy story has Hoppy and Lucky getting involved in a Range War where rancher Willard Robertson has a nice little racket going. He's got a strategically located ranch and charges tolls to anyone who wants to cross it with their cattle to market. So he has a vested interest in keeping the railroad from being built. Between the tolls and the sabotage of all kinds to the railroad Robertson is making life miserable all around.
Hoppy goes undercover with Britt Wood and when Wood is discovered to be a spy Bill Boyd has to think fast on his feet. He also captures a bunch of the outlaws also thinking fast on his feet and with no gunplay.
More than enough gunplay for the final shootout with Boyd, Wood, and Russell Hayden at Padre Pedro DeCordoba's mission. DeCordoba allows Hoppy to use the mission as a base for his operations. A most unpacific thing, but it's Hopalong Cassidy so you know you're right with the Deity.
