Fourth of July at Victoria Siding Ends in Fireworks Feud
Flicker Brown, a talkative freight agent at Victoria Siding on the Canadian Pacific, discovers a stray crate of fireworks. He stages a private Fourth of July display using the equipment, provoking a confrontational showdown with the Dominion Limited and railway officials. A patriotic clash ends with his resignation and a new British-identified station master arriving.
