Plot – Senator Stoddard returns to his town Shinebone to assist the funeral of Tom Toniphon and to the reporters he tells how his career started out. Stoddard was attacked by Liberty Valance, an outlaw, but he saved himself. Together with the director of a local newspaper, Stoddard conducted a campaign to restore legality and to give Shinebone a correct political representative, but Liberty Valance opposed his election and challenged Stoddard. The Senator managed to kill the outlaw in unknown circumstances and Tom took Stoddard's defences, until his girlfriend told him she had fallen in love with Stoddard. Because of the murder, Stoddard reconsidered his candidacy, but Tom revealed he killed Liberty Valance to let Stoddard embark his successful career.
