The Girl from Outside (1919)

Alone in Nome, Alaska in 1900 after her father dies en route from Seattle, June Campbell is befriended by the Curly Kid and his four friends "The Wags." They help her open a hotel through dishonest means, but she is unaware they are crooks. The owner of the hotel property, Harry Hope, the manager of a trading company, falls in love with her, as do the Wags, who steal furnishings and a cow for her. Gambler Jim Denton, the owner of the leading saloon, desiring June, forges a codicil to an option on Harry's profitable gold mine. The Curly Kid, realizing his love for June is hopeless since she loves Harry, destroys the option but is killed by Denton. The Kid's Chinese cook Chow coolly knifes Denton before the Wags arrive to take revenge. Through June's influence, the Wags reform, and Harry and June are happily united.
