Jilted as a mail order bride in California, Delilah Price is taken in by Sam Arbuckle, owner of a boarding house. Low on funds, Delilah makes her way by helping Sam at his establishment. Delilah receives offers from other men but refuses them but she does note the large amount of men and not as many single females.So she sets out to establish a business venture to lure females to California to meet prospective husbands; she plans to print the information on the men, send it to her father's paper back east and become self supportive. The men who run the newspapers in town will not go into business with a woman though. Help comes from Jack Dalton when he wins a newspaper office in a gambling game; although she finds him to be a womanizer and braggart, Delilah reluctantly uses his newspaper. Jack thinks of Delilah as prissy and bossy but agrees to help her, especially since he knows nothing of running a newspaper.
