I SHALL SETTLE WITH YOU WEEKLY.

OR, PERHAPS, MONTHLY.

YOU'LL SUM UP MY ACCOUNT--

I BEG YOUR PARDON, MADAM.

HE'S AN EXCELLENT SHAVE, MADAM.

OH, I'M SORRY, MADAM.

GOOD MORNING, MA'AM.

I WISH TO HAVE:

A TOOTH PULLED.

YES, MA'AM.

WILL YOU BE SEATED, PLEASE?

THERE YA ARE.

WHAT'S THIS?

IMBIBE, MADAM, OR SUFFER.

I DO NOT IMBIBE.

VERY WELL, MA'AM.

NOW, IF YOU'LL KINDLY PLACE YOUR

RIGHT KNEE AGAINST MY CHEST.

WHY, I'VE NEVER HEARD

OF SUCH A THING IN MY LIFE.

I'LL TELL MY HUSBAND.

JUST FOR LEVERAGE, MA'AM.

JUST FOR LEVERAGE.

[ Screams ]

SAY "AH. "

THERE WE ARE.

AH!

I TAKE A SHORT TRIP

OUT OF TOWN,

AND LOOK WHAT HAPPENS.

FOUR KILLINGS IN A WEEK.

IT'S GOT TO STOP.

FOUR?

DID YOU SAY FOUR?

THAT'S RIGHT, FOUR!

WELL, WE'RE GETTING TO BE

QUITE A TOWN, AREN'T WE?

I DOUBT IF THEY HAVE

THAT MANY IN DODGE CITY.

NO, I DON'T THINK SO.

WE AIM TO COMPETE

WITH ANY CITY IN SIZE,

BUT NOT IN LAWLESSNESS.

CERTAINLY, OF COURSE,

FOUR KILLINGS IS OUTRAGEOUS.

THE JUDGE WAS SAYING,

MR. McCLOUD, BEFORE YOU CAME,

THAT THE APPOINTMEN OF A MARSHAL IS OBVIOUSLY

IN ORDER.

IF I CAN FIND THE RIGHT MAN.

I HAVE A NEPHEW. HE'S A FINE,

UPSTANDING YOUNG MAN WHO--

WHO YOU'D LIKE TO SEE

ON THE CITY PAYROLL.

WELL, THE MAN WE NEED

MUST BE HONEST,

MUST HAVE COURAGE,

KNOW HOW TO HANDLE MEN.

HAVE YOU ANY SUGGESTIONS?

WAIT NOW,

THERE'S MY NEPHEW.

HE'S OUT!

WE REALLY FELT, MR. McCLOUD,

THAT YOU'D PROBABLY MAKE

A NOMINATION.

GENTLEMEN, I THINK I KNOW

THE VERY MAN.

LOOK OUT FOR THE RUTS, WILL.

"LOOK OUT FOR THE RUTS. "

THERE YOU HAVE:

THE STORY OF MY LIFE.

ONLY I NEVER DID LOOK OUT.

ALWAYS BEEN IN ONE.

LOOK AT ME NOW--

A SCHOOLTEACHER.

WHERE'S THAT GOING

TO GET ME?

WHERE DO YOU WANT TO GO?

I THINK I COULD GO

CLEAR TO THE TOP IF I THOUGH YOU'D BE THERE WAITING.

WHY NOT GO TO THE TOP

ANYWAY, JUST FOR THE CLIMB

AND THE VIEW?

- [ Chattering ]

- ALL RIGHT.

I'M FROM TENNESSEE.

WHAT OF IT?

WE AIN'T WANTIN' PEOPLE

AROUND HERE:

WHO SELL THEIR VOTES.

I DON'T HAVE TO SELL MINE.

I GOT A BUSINESS OF MY OWN.

SMART ALECK, HUH?

WHAT DO YOU SAY, BOYS,

WE GIVE HIM A LIFT OUT OF TOWN?

TAKE YOUR HANDS OFF OF HIM.

WHO MIGHT YOU BE?

NOTHIN' TO YOU. I JUST SAID,

KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF.

YOU TALK MIGHTY BIG FOR ONE MAN.

WHAT RIGHT DO YOU GO TO BUTT INTO THIS?

I'LL TELL YA,

YA PACK OF COYOTES.

A MAN BORN IN THIS COUNTRY

IS AN AMERICAN.

DON'T FORGET THAT.

IT'S HIS RIGHT TO...

GO WHERE HE PLEASES,

AND IT'S MY BUSINESS TO--

COME ON, MARY.

HIT HIM IN THE TEETH, BOB,

IN THE TEETH.

LET ME GIVE YOU A HAND, MISTER.
