Originally Aired: April 5, 1939The Lone Ranger #966, "Trouble At Gold King Mine,"At the Gold King mine near Pine Bluffs, young foreman Dave Munsey faces a crisis when troublemaker Bart sets off a reckless blast that collapses tunnel number three. When Dave tries to fire Bart for his deliberate sabotage, the miner and his crew turn violent, nearly mobbing the foreman until the Lone Ranger intervenes. Despite Dave's efforts to maintain order, mine manager Wilkins arrives and undermines his authority, dismissing Dave instead of the rebellious workers. Wilkins claims Dave lacks the experience to handle the crew, though Dave protests that Wilkins has consistently sided with the men against him, making it impossible to maintain discipline.Dejected and facing ruin in his career, Dave returns home to his wife Mary, who reveals hopeful news: Mr. Potter, the mine owner and an old friend of Dave's late father, is arriving in Pine Bluffs that very day. Dave sees this as his chance to explain how Wilkins' interference has sabotaged production and his authority, but dark forces may be at work to prevent the truth from coming to light.
