This is an interesting newspaper adventure, told in two reels, and directed by F.A. Kelsey. Irene Hunt plays the role of the young woman who finds her opportunity to make good in uncovering the grafting schemes of the City Councilmen for the benefit of the paper by which she is employed. By means of a dictagraph placed in an adjoining room at a restaurant the conversation of a City Contractor with one of the honest councilors whom he believes to be his friend and to whom he is handing graft money, is recorded. It is at this point of the story that the young woman recognizes her former sweetheart through a hole in the wall, the man who is apparently receiving graft money for his own purposes, but who it afterward divulges, is preparing for the exposure of the graft system on his own account. One of the finest scenes in the film is that in the council chamber where the Councilman faces the Contractor with the charge of graft. - The Moving Picture World, January 9, 1915
