00:08:21,544 --> 00:08:22,806
Don't you figure you can win?
179
00:08:23,938 --> 00:08:26,810
But if Bob no win,
Bob no get money.
180
00:08:26,854 --> 00:08:29,596
Bob already lose money
by not working in mine.
181
00:08:29,639 --> 00:08:32,163
He's smarter than you are,
Jesse.
182
00:08:32,207 --> 00:08:36,733
Look, Bob, all we want to see
is this Pat Keenan lose once.
183
00:08:36,777 --> 00:08:38,605
Now, you can beat him,
184
00:08:38,648 --> 00:08:40,955
and we'll pay to see you do it.
185
00:08:42,522 --> 00:08:45,481
Ah, now Bob begin to listen.
186
00:08:45,525 --> 00:08:47,875
You come in to town
and race anybody
187
00:08:47,918 --> 00:08:49,659
Jesse and I
match you with Sunday,
188
00:08:49,703 --> 00:08:53,576
and we'll give you $25
each race you win.
189
00:08:53,620 --> 00:08:56,013
You give Bob guarantee?
190
00:08:56,057 --> 00:08:57,319
Guarantee?
191
00:08:58,363 --> 00:09:00,191
The way he say,
if Bob lose race,
192
00:09:00,235 --> 00:09:01,671
Bob not get money.
193
00:09:02,629 --> 00:09:04,892
Okay, Bob.
We'll guarantee you $40--
194
00:09:04,935 --> 00:09:06,763
50.
195
00:09:06,807 --> 00:09:09,287
$50, win or lose.
196
00:09:09,331 --> 00:09:12,595
Aaron:
And that's more than you'd make
working your mine all day.
197
00:09:12,639 --> 00:09:14,902
And this will only take
a couple of hours.
198
00:09:14,945 --> 00:09:16,120
Good.
199
00:09:16,164 --> 00:09:18,645
Bob race for you next Sunday.
200
00:09:18,688 --> 00:09:19,950
Now Bob go work mine.
201
00:09:24,868 --> 00:09:26,870
Nothing but pure money.
202
00:09:30,787 --> 00:09:35,052
[ chatter ]
203
00:09:35,096 --> 00:09:37,185
Now listen careful, Bob.
204
00:09:37,228 --> 00:09:41,493
Don't go winning
this race by too far
205
00:09:41,537 --> 00:09:44,845
because we don't want Pat Keenan
to know you can beat him.
206
00:09:44,888 --> 00:09:46,803
You know, just make it close.
207
00:09:46,847 --> 00:09:48,500
Now, you understand?
208
00:09:48,544 --> 00:09:50,502
Boys!
209
00:09:50,546 --> 00:09:51,808
Boys?
210
00:09:51,852 --> 00:09:53,767
When are we gonna
start the race?
211
00:09:53,810 --> 00:09:56,030
Oh, you hear that, fellas?
212
00:09:56,073 --> 00:09:58,336
Old Jess just
can't wait to lose.
213
00:09:59,555 --> 00:10:01,731
I ain't figuring
on losing this time, Gopher.
214
00:10:01,775 --> 00:10:05,648
Matter of fact is,
I got a $20 gold piece here
215
00:10:05,692 --> 00:10:09,217
says that Cherokee Bob
takes Big Jim Lakin.
216
00:10:10,479 --> 00:10:12,568
Money burning a hole
in your pockets, huh?
217
00:10:13,700 --> 00:10:15,919
No, I feel lucky this time.
218
00:10:15,963 --> 00:10:18,835
I really feel lucky.
This is my lucky day, Gopher.
219
00:10:18,879 --> 00:10:20,097
I feel it.
220
00:10:21,533 --> 00:10:22,665
You know,
221
00:10:22,709 --> 00:10:25,537
I could retire
off your lucky days.
222
00:10:27,670 --> 00:10:30,542
You gonna let me bet
with your partner, Aaron?
223
00:10:30,586 --> 00:10:33,589
I reckon he's old enough
to do what he wants.
224
00:10:33,633 --> 00:10:37,549
Gopher, here's my
$20 gold piece.
225
00:10:37,593 --> 00:10:39,987
Now, put up, or shut up.
226
00:10:41,205 --> 00:10:42,685
Bring it here, Jesse.
227
00:10:42,729 --> 00:10:44,992
It's probably got
my name on it anyhow.
228
00:10:46,907 --> 00:10:49,170
Bob. Come here, Bob.
229
00:10:49,213 --> 00:10:51,128
Now, Constable Taylor,
be easy.
230
00:10:51,172 --> 00:10:53,565
Bob ain't never run over
here in Moores Flats before.
231
00:10:53,609 --> 00:10:56,046
I thought maybe you'd kindly
go over the course with him,
232
00:10:56,090 --> 00:10:58,658
you know, kind of brief him up.
233
00:10:58,701 --> 00:11:00,572
You know,
Injuns are such good trackers,
234
00:11:00,616 --> 00:11:03,488
I figure he could probably
follow Big Jim's trail.
235
00:11:05,577 --> 00:11:08,319
No offense, Bob, it's just
that you ain't got a chance.
236
00:11:08,363 --> 00:11:09,451
No offense.
237
00:11:09,494 --> 00:11:11,671
Now, Bob, the race
is going to start
238
00:11:11,714 --> 00:11:13,411
right down here
at the livery stable,
239
00:11:13,455 --> 00:11:15,283
and it's going to end
right in front of the saloon.
240
00:11:15,326 --> 00:11:17,502
Now, when I wave my hand,
241
00:11:17,546 --> 00:11:18,852
that means you get ready.
242
00:11:18,895 --> 00:11:23,204
Now, when I fire my gun,
then you start running.
243
00:11:23,247 --> 00:11:24,466
You ready to run?
244
00:11:24,509 --> 00:11:25,641
Bob ready.
245
00:11:25,685 --> 00:11:26,990
Big Jim?
246
00:11:27,034 --> 00:11:29,471
Sure am.
Come on, let's go.
247
00:11:29,514 --> 00:11:31,560
All right, Bob. Let's get
on down to the livery stable.
248
00:11:33,605 --> 00:11:35,390
Say, I ain't never seen
that Injun
249
00:11:35,433 --> 00:11:36,783
around here before, Jess.
250
00:11:36,826 --> 00:11:38,480
Just how fast is he?
251
00:11:39,742 --> 00:11:41,613
It don't make
no difference, Dusty.
252
00:11:41,657 --> 00:11:44,051
There's only one man around
can beat Big Jim.
253
00:11:44,094 --> 00:11:46,227
Oh? Who's that?
254
00:11:46,270 --> 00:11:47,532
Me. Pat Keenan.
255
00:11:47,576 --> 00:11:48,751
And that's a fact.
256
00:11:48,795 --> 00:11:51,449
Well, now, I ain't
no miner like you boys,
257
00:11:51,493 --> 00:11:54,757
but I'd just like to make
a little wager on Big Jim.
258
00:11:54,801 --> 00:11:56,454
Anybody here want to take Bob?
259
00:11:56,498 --> 00:11:58,239
Jesse:
I'll take it, Dusty.
260
00:11:58,282 --> 00:12:01,503
A Pony Express man's money's
just as good as anybody else's.
261
00:12:01,546 --> 00:12:03,679
Just chunk it right in there.
262
00:12:03,723 --> 00:12:04,811
How about me, Jess?
263
00:12:04,854 --> 00:12:06,769
I got $20 to put on Big Jim.
264
00:12:06,813 --> 00:12:10,599
Well Pat, I guess I ought
to back my partner.
265
00:12:10,642 --> 00:12:11,643
I'll cover your 20.
266
00:12:13,036 --> 00:12:17,649
All right, boys,
let's go out and watch 'em run.
267
00:12:17,693 --> 00:12:19,913
I'm taking all bets.
I'm betting on...
268
00:12:37,234 --> 00:12:40,368
Not too fast, Bob.
Not so fast.
269
00:12:47,549 --> 00:12:50,378
Thank you, boys. Thank you,
boys. Thank you, boys.
270
00:12:56,036 --> 00:12:58,865
You were just great, Bob.
Just great.
271
00:12:58,908 --> 00:13:00,127
For a minute I thought
you wasn't
272
00:13:00,170 --> 00:13:01,519
going to be able to slow down.
273
00:13:01,563 --> 00:13:03,086
Bob remember.
274
00:13:03,130 --> 00:13:05,785
Just great. Now, we're going
to set them up for the kill.
275
00:13:11,051 --> 00:13:14,968
Yesiree boys, that Cherokee Bob
is right speedy.
276
00:13:15,011 --> 00:13:17,492
You know something?
I believe he can take
old Pat Keenan.

Just can't stand prosperity,
can you, Jesse?

Hey, nobody ever beat Pat,
Jesse.

trying to beat ya.

at nothing twice in a row.

Maybe you wasn't ready.

that first race for a warm up.

There's your $50,
and for doing so good,

with another 20,

I'd see a time

Ain't he something?

00:15:37,675 --> 00:15:40,200
That is one fast Indian.
331
00:15:40,243 --> 00:15:42,680
Yep, that Injun
is right speedy, Jesse,

as Soda Bill.

Who's this Soda Bill?

Well, he runs a claim
up near Nevada City,
335
00:15:49,644 --> 00:15:50,993

He said Soda Bill can outrun
Cherokee Bob.

00:16:06,704 --> 00:16:09,272
You find a man you think
can outrun that Injun,

and you got a bet
with me, Dusty.

who the fastest is.Good.

Let me see, now.
352
00:16:29,379 --> 00:16:31,164
Dear Nevada City,
353
00:16:32,426 --> 00:16:35,907
we hear tell ya'll got
a miner over there
354
00:16:35,951 --> 00:16:40,434
by the name of Soda Bill
that's pretty fast.
355
00:16:40,477 --> 00:16:45,047
Well, we got one here
we think can run his legs off.
356
00:16:46,483 --> 00:16:49,834
Now why don't you boys
over there in Nevada City
357
00:16:49,878 --> 00:16:54,056
get together and bring
Soda Bill over here
358
00:16:54,100 --> 00:16:58,495
and let's settle this thing
once and for all?
359
00:16:58,539 --> 00:17:02,412
Signed, the boys
from Moores Flats.
360
00:17:02,456 --> 00:17:03,457
How does that sound, fellas?
361
00:17:03,500 --> 00:17:06,155
[ approving cheers]
362
00:17:06,199 --> 00:17:07,417
Okay, Jesse.
363
00:17:07,461 --> 00:17:09,680
I'll be riding back this way
next Tuesday,
364
00:17:09,724 --> 00:17:11,421
and you'll get your answer then.
365
00:17:11,465 --> 00:17:12,944
Yeah.
366
00:17:12,988 --> 00:17:14,163
Gopher,
367
00:17:15,556 --> 00:17:19,038
this is going to be easier
than it was fleecing you, huh?
368
00:17:24,478 --> 00:17:25,696
Atta boy, Bob.
369
00:17:29,787 --> 00:17:32,399
You really serious about all
this training stuff, huh?
370
00:17:32,442 --> 00:17:34,357
Huh, don't you know I am.
371
00:17:34,401 --> 00:17:36,577
When they have horse races,
they train horses,
372
00:17:36,620 --> 00:17:38,274
run them up and down
like this, don't they?
373
00:17:38,318 --> 00:17:39,710
Why not people?
374
00:17:39,754 --> 00:17:42,931
How's Bob taking all
this running around them hills?
375
00:17:42,974 --> 00:17:46,108
Well, I guarantee him
$200 to win
376
00:17:46,152 --> 00:17:48,241
and $100 if he loses.
377
00:17:48,284 --> 00:17:51,461
But, between you and me Aaron,
he ain't too fond of it.
378
00:17:51,505 --> 00:17:53,985
He thinks he ought to be
working his claim.
379
00:17:54,029 --> 00:17:56,640
Well, naturally.
That's what you
ought to be doing.
380
00:17:56,684 --> 00:17:58,773
You know, don't do me
no good having a partner
381
00:17:58,816 --> 00:18:00,253
if he ain't around
to share the work.
382
00:18:00,296 --> 00:18:02,864
Aw, Aaron,
it's just until tomorrow.
383
00:18:05,214 --> 00:18:06,389
Atta boy, Bob.
384
00:18:06,433 --> 00:18:07,738
Oh, it's just
until tomorrow, huh?
385
00:18:07,782 --> 00:18:09,479
Then the big winner
is going to come back
386
00:18:09,523 --> 00:18:11,568
and work his claim
for his poor old partner, huh?
387
00:18:11,612 --> 00:18:13,135
Oh, come on, Aaron.
388
00:18:13,179 --> 00:18:15,529
Besides, I don't know
if I like being a big winner.
389
00:18:15,572 --> 00:18:17,400
Oh, I thought you was all upset
390
00:18:17,444 --> 00:18:19,359
'cause the fellers laughed
at you when you lost?
391
00:18:19,402 --> 00:18:21,970
Well, they ain't laughing
at me anymore.
392
00:18:22,013 --> 00:18:23,754
Matter of fact,
they ain't even friendly.
393
00:18:23,798 --> 00:18:26,453
Last week, I had a town
full of friends,
394
00:18:26,496 --> 00:18:30,152
and now, when I josh them about
losing, they just walk away.
395
00:18:31,501 --> 00:18:33,155
So, you don't like
being a winner, huh?
396
00:18:34,504 --> 00:18:36,332
Well, I don't know.
397
00:18:36,376 --> 00:18:39,553
Maybe when Bob wins this Sunday,
might change me a little bit.
398
00:18:39,596 --> 00:18:41,337
Might make me feel better.
399
00:18:41,381 --> 00:18:43,426
At least I hope so.
400
00:18:43,470 --> 00:18:44,688
Atta boy, Bob.
401
00:18:45,689 --> 00:18:46,995
I'm telling you, Aaron,
402
00:18:47,038 --> 00:18:49,258
if things keep up like this,
403
00:18:49,302 --> 00:18:51,565
I'm going to be
more miserable than ever.
404
00:18:51,608 --> 00:18:53,567
Well you ain't half as miserable
as you're going to be
405
00:18:53,610 --> 00:18:55,482
if Soda Bill whips Cherokee Bob.
406
00:18:55,525 --> 00:18:56,700
You know there's going to be
407
00:18:56,744 --> 00:18:58,746
half this town's dust
riding on Bob?
408
00:18:58,789 --> 00:19:01,227
Yeah, I know it.
409
00:19:01,270 --> 00:19:03,620
I just don't even
like to think about it.
410
00:19:07,668 --> 00:19:09,452
Hey, men?
411
00:19:09,496 --> 00:19:12,194
These here is some of the boys
from Nevada City,
412
00:19:12,238 --> 00:19:14,414
and this here is the feller
I was telling you about,
413
00:19:14,457 --> 00:19:16,198
Soda Bill.
414
00:19:16,242 --> 00:19:17,634
Hello, Bill.
Hey, Dusty,
415
00:19:17,678 --> 00:19:19,549
take the boys up the bar,
buy you all a drink.

[ excited shouts ]
417
00:19:21,638 --> 00:19:23,901
Howdy. My name's Jesse.Howdy.
418
00:19:23,945 --> 00:19:26,426
Want to welcome you
to Moores Flats, Soda Bill.
419
00:19:26,469 --> 00:19:27,383
Can I buy you a drink?
420
00:19:27,427 --> 00:19:29,211
No thanks.
421
00:19:29,255 --> 00:19:30,821
I don't drink when I race.
422
00:19:30,865 --> 00:19:34,521
Oh. What's these nails sticking
in your shoes like that for?
423
00:19:34,564 --> 00:19:35,565
Don't they hurt when you walk?
424
00:19:35,609 --> 00:19:37,132
These here's racing shoes.
425
00:19:37,176 --> 00:19:39,482
These spikes
dig into the ground,
426
00:19:39,526 --> 00:19:40,657
make me run faster.
427
00:19:40,701 --> 00:19:43,182
Yeah? Well, Soda Bill...
428
00:19:44,792 --> 00:19:46,750
I wonder if you'd--
429
00:19:46,794 --> 00:19:49,492
if you'd be interested
in a little proposition
430
00:19:49,536 --> 00:19:51,146
that might mean
some money to you?
431
00:19:52,930 --> 00:19:54,105
I might.
432
00:19:54,149 --> 00:19:56,369
Well, let's you and me
just mosey out
433
00:19:56,412 --> 00:19:58,022
on the side walk
and talk a spell.
434
00:20:02,026 --> 00:20:05,160
[ inconspicuous whistling ]
435
00:20:07,293 --> 00:20:09,599
All right, Cherokee Bob,
Soda Bill,
436
00:20:09,643 --> 00:20:11,775
this race is going to be
for all the money.
437
00:20:11,819 --> 00:20:13,647
Now, we're going to start
down the livery stable
438
00:20:13,690 --> 00:20:15,431
and finish right here.
439
00:20:15,475 --> 00:20:19,348
Now boys, whenever I wave,
that means get ready.
440
00:20:19,392 --> 00:20:22,046
Whenever I shoot the gun,
the race is on.
441
00:20:22,090 --> 00:20:24,092
Now, any questions?
442
00:20:24,135 --> 00:20:25,615
All right, move on up
to start, boys.
443
00:20:29,315 --> 00:20:31,142
Well, you boys
got your bets down?

Don't you worry.

We'll know soon enough.

Come on, Bob.
449
00:21:04,219 --> 00:21:05,655
He lost.
450
00:21:05,699 --> 00:21:07,527
He wasn't supposed to.
He couldn't.
451
00:21:08,615 --> 00:21:11,487
Appeared to me
like he did lose, Jesse.
452
00:21:11,531 --> 00:21:15,230
Yes, sir,
it sure looked that way.
453
00:21:19,843 --> 00:21:22,846
I'm sorry I lost that money
for all you fellas.
454
00:21:22,890 --> 00:21:26,850
Like I said, though,
that Soda Bill was mighty fast.
455
00:21:26,894 --> 00:21:29,418
Aw, it ain't your fault,
Dusty.
456
00:21:29,462 --> 00:21:31,986
Besides,
it was a real fine race.
457
00:21:32,029 --> 00:21:33,727
He just lost.
That's all.
458
00:21:33,770 --> 00:21:35,511
I didn't think
there was a man alive
459
00:21:35,555 --> 00:21:37,470
could beat that Cherokee Bob.
460
00:21:37,513 --> 00:21:39,907
Yeah, but he ran
a real fine race, though.
Didn't he, fellas?
461
00:21:39,950 --> 00:21:41,125
Yeah, he really did.
462
00:21:41,169 --> 00:21:42,649
Hey, I wonder
where he went to?
463
00:21:42,692 --> 00:21:44,781
I wanted to buy him a beer.
464
00:21:44,825 --> 00:21:47,523
Bob left town right after
Soda Bill paid him off.
465
00:21:51,484 --> 00:21:53,312
What does that mean?
466
00:21:53,355 --> 00:21:55,444
You saw the race.
Bob lost.
467
00:21:55,488 --> 00:21:58,229
I also saw Soda Bill
give Bob a sack of dust
468
00:21:58,273 --> 00:22:00,101
just before he left town.
469
00:22:00,144 --> 00:22:03,060
Are you saying
that Bob let him win?
470
00:22:03,104 --> 00:22:04,410
That's right,
471
00:22:04,453 --> 00:22:05,715
and it figures.
472
00:22:05,759 --> 00:22:07,630
Bob didn't like nothing
better than money.
473
00:22:08,718 --> 00:22:12,243
Now wait, that can't be.Why not?
474
00:22:12,287 --> 00:22:16,683
Because. Because I got
to worrying about this race.
475
00:22:16,726 --> 00:22:19,338
After I won the money
from you boys last week,
476
00:22:19,381 --> 00:22:22,297
well, you haven't even
been near as friendly,
477
00:22:22,341 --> 00:22:26,388
so I got to figuring,
if Bob lost this race,
478
00:22:26,432 --> 00:22:30,523
well, I wouldn't be wanted
around this town anymore.
479
00:22:30,566 --> 00:22:35,441
So I paid Soda Bill $200
to throw the race.
480
00:23:00,422 --> 00:23:01,554
Well, what are you laughing
at me for?
481
00:23:01,597 --> 00:23:02,990
I did it for ya'll.
482
00:23:04,513 --> 00:23:09,039
Jesse couldn't fix a race if
there was only one man running.
483
00:23:09,083 --> 00:23:10,867
We lost our heads, man.
484
00:23:10,911 --> 00:23:12,652
We should have laid
everything we had
485
00:23:12,695 --> 00:23:15,089
on the one Jesse bet against.
486
00:23:18,005 --> 00:23:21,574
He wouldn't know a double cross
if it had him surrounded.
487

They ain't mad at me.

00:23:31,018 --> 00:23:32,236
No, they ain't mad.

I'm right back
where I started.

00:23:39,374 --> 00:23:41,420
Yep. You're right back
where you started.

regarding Cherokee Bob,
so we can only assume

that he failed
to reach his goal
as California's richest Indian.

had what he wanted all along--
