to give up his job and return to his
home, but men we're scarce and al
though Mcguire rendered his resigna-
ton he was not relieved until the
following spring.
Mcguire Is Warned
During this period the Indians were
friendly, but rumblings OF a break
began to be heard in the land. One
redskin, Dog Belly. with whom he was
particularly friendly, gave Mcguire his
first intimation of the war plans then
being formulated Riding up to. the
station one afternoon. Dog Belly told
the station tender that his tribe was
going to put on their war paint the
following spring and advised him TO
leave the country.
If I was you would not stay here
Indians are going to war in the
spring" said Dog Belly.
But I know the Oogallas and the
Bruelles and they would not hurt me, "
retorted Mcguire.
Me know" replied Dog Belly. The
Yanktown Sioux and the Minnesota
Sioux, the Cheyennes and the Arapa-
hoes go on the warpath next spring.
Dog Belly, would you kill me?" Ma
guire asked
mo, I would not I would ride
around you, but the other Indians
will kill the first white man they see
or have bad luck was the parting
shot of the friend as he rode away
Many Men Killed
The outbreak came as scheduled and
many of the men with whom Mcguire
had formed warm friendships were
dispatched to the happy hunting
ground. Charles Tegby, Bishop" West,
who had his feet frozen off: White,
Johnny Mayfield, division agents I'M
der whom Mcguire had worked, were
all killed in the fall or summer. The
man known as Red" who succeeded
Mcguire at the cattle station, was
scalped in one of the raids and his
body thrown down the we'll.
These Indian raids. together with
the losses sustained during the previ-
Gus winter, caused dissension among
the partners in the freighting enter
prise and as a result the combination
dissolved. Majors lost nearly every
thing he had put into the venture.
When the affairs of the company were
finally settled he went east and at
tempted to perfect patent. but never
realized his ambition He died in New
York about % years ago.
Maguire's trip home in 1864 kept
him there until 1866 and then he came
out on the Union Pacific. He brought
his outfit into Julesburg and followed
the line to Promontory point, Utah
From Ogden on to Corinne, Utah, the
c. P. and U. P. rights of way crossed
and recrossed many times, and were
the cause of many saloon fights be-
tween the various gangs. but no seri-
GUS shooting affrays occurred, accord
ing to Mcguire. The trip out was a
different proposition, however.
I'VE had trouble with the Indians
all the way" he said We had plenty
of soldiers but they were not worth
a damn. The Indians would come
down a ditch and the first thing you
knew they were on top Of you. They
swept off about one-third of the rail-
road stock, but they never got any
from me.
Every man had to do his own fight

duced Mcguire to quit Bryan and to
transfer his activities to Bonanza CITY,
Idaho. His advent to the new camp
was made when he brought in a boiler
and an outfit for Sheirin. At that
time the camp boosted Of three pro
ducerS, the Custer mine, a rich quartz
property: the Bonanza placer rich
but short-lived. and the Miners De
light, owned by Johnny Atchison and
man named Holdberg.
Both men were GREAT gamblers
said Mcguire. and when they got
down to water they left the camp
broke. I have seen them 20 out TO
their claim, time after time, and
scrape up bucketful after bucketful of
dirt and bet it without batting an
eyelash. Sometimes there was $1,000
worth OF gold in the bucket. They
gambled away 100000 and when the
town was abandoned four or five years
later, they left with the rest"
Seven years in the Sweetwater
country Of Idaho found Mcguire
freighting from camp to camp, driving
teams of nine span and four wagons
10 team, until the remuneration be-
came too small and then he headed
for Butte. the last of the big towns
in the west to succumb to the ad-
vance Of civilization. He arrived in
Butte in 1887 with what he called a
small outfit, two eight-span teams,
and started hauling wood from
Browns gulch to the Moulton mine
1T did not take a man long to get
around Butte in those days" he said.
She was q pretty lively place at
that time and everybody was going
pretty fast, with the comiques and
everything going at full blast The
laws did not amount 10 much"

ing" he continued. When they made
a charge us graders would get out
and fire. There were a lot of Indians
killed but don't know who killed
them. I was a pretty good shot,
though. The fighting continued up to
the other side of Fort Bridger in
Wyoming but stopped in 1863
Severing his connection with the
railroad, Mcguire took a stake Of
$4,000 and headed for Salt Lake.
When he arrived the city was making
preparations for the celebration in
connection with the driving of the
golden spike which marked the end
of construction on the U. P. The cele-
bration was held May 10, 1869. and
was marked by the shooting of cannon
and the usual festivities which char
acteriZed affairs of that kind in those
days.
Deciding to take a flyer at mining,
Mcguire sold his outfit and sunk what
he earned into mines around Salt
Lake, and after going broke he went
back to the mules and freight wagons.
This time his headquarters was at
Byran, Wyo. the center of hostile In
dian territory, where he spent the
greater mart of IA wears and where
he evnerienced adventures in which

1t was in this section that one OF
his greatest adventures was staged.
His brother had started out for the
Black Hills with an outfit and had
been gone more than a day when
word was brought to Mcguire that the
redskins on the route taken by his
brother had gone on the warpath.

Films. . Most folks know practically nothing about the production of films. They simply know, after viewing the finished product whether the picture is swell or lousy Film Facts for 1941 has great amount of technical detail about pictures which bothers the average movie fan For instance the average production record of the larger Hollywood studios is three minutes of fin ished film in eight hour day. For instance (again) the portion of scene where, perhaps, Rosaind Russell enters room, puts in bit of stage business like taking "Helo darling" is the work of one days filming. Hard to believe but true The actual showing of just that shooting (not with guns) and so on. Likewise the Film Facts bulletin tells us that the average film is made in thirty days and some take year Another film fact: In twenty of the larger studios there about 150 contract stars and about 400 feature players There also freeance stars who go from one studio to another We might go and on but perhaps you would like to enjoy your pictures in your fashion without giving any thought to production details.

westward, clear to the Rockies, a full 1000 miles away. taking in prac- tically all of Arkansas and okla homa, and big hunks of Louisiana, Missouri, Kansas, Texas, Colorado and New Mexico.
 All four of these rivers drain into the Mississippi, and they now com tribute an annual flood damage of around $9,o00,000. Checking this flood menace. is one of the first aims of AVA. But in addition there are the benefits of water power and navigation to be developed, as in IVA, plus further benefits to be derived from solving three problems which the Tennessee Valley doesn't have:
 l. Drainage of the Arkansas
 swamp lands, opening up thou
 sands of acres of new fertile land.
 ?. Irrigation of semiarid re- gions like southeastern Colo
 rado, and Oklahoma, and north Texas.
 3. Dust control and the
 checking of damage from wind
 erosion and dust storms over
 all this area, in dry years. Not all this development, to cost no one knows how many millions of dollars, will have to start from scratch. A start has been made. There are 36 dams within the area -big dans-built or under con. StIuction to get @ jump on the flood control and power develop ment. They stack up like this: Arkansas River: Seven dams un- der construction at a cost Of $66, 6,000,- 900. Six more dams authorized, to cost $50,000,0 900. Seven more dams recommended by chief of engineers to cost $84,000,o00. Total, $2oo, o,00o,- 900.
 Red River: Two dams under con. struction at cost of $49, 100000 Four more dams authorized to cost $6,- 100000. One dam recommended to cost $6,000000. Total, $6i GOO 900.
 White River: Two dams under cons truction at a cost of $26, ,000, ,000. Four more dams authorized, to cost $33 ,000, 900. Two dams recommended to cost $79,000,000. Total, $l38,000,- GOO.
 St. Francis River: One dam un- der construction, to cost $5O00,00O.
 That's Q $400, 1000, 900 start for U. s. engineer projects only, and not counting the myriad smaller re- clamation dams, irrigation systems and drainage systems, power hous- es, power lines, river locks, refores- tation, recreation, wild life propa- gation, economic planning and so

which would further make use of natural gas, coal and oil in the area for steam power development to supplement the hydro development in peak load periods.
 Idea for this AVA development is of course not new. It was first dreamed of as far back as 1912. It lay dormant for years, then was revived locally in 1892 when the state legislature took an interest. The Rural Electriflcation Agency of the federal government gave the idea new impetus from 1895 on. And in 1888 1t became rip-roaring issue.
 THE UP-AND-

 Prime mover of the AVA plan in Congress now Is a keen blue.eyed, young congressman named Clyde Ellis. He was born and brought up in the White River valley. He got the idea for developing the wasted natural resources of his state while still in college in Arkansas. He ran for the state legislature with this development as his big issue, fought for 1t, and carried his fight on to run for Congress and make 1t his big issue there.

Pile Up Seven TVA's---And You'll Have The AVA

& pair of enthusiasts you'll be hear ing from plenty, in the future.
 Senator Norris and the IVA art of course the Ellis inspiration. The AVA bill, in fact, is patterned after , the Tennessee Valley act. It pro- vides for the creation of an Arkan' sas Valley Authority corporation to be contr lied by three directort appointed the President. The corporation would be given full authority to take over existing dams, acquire property, build new dams, powerhouSes, transmlsSlon lines, and sell the power. Looking ahead to the idea of making the projects self-supporting, the AVA is authorized to issue up to Q tota of $l50, ,000,0 900 in 3M percent. bonds maturing in fifty years, with the government guaranteeing principal and interest.
 Getting around the tax-free ob- jections to projects of this kind, the authority Is directed to pay 5 per cent. of its gross receipts t0 the states in which 1t operates. Profits, If any, will be paid to the U. 6. Treasury.
 Passage of the AVA act won't be achieved without a fight. Governor Carr of Colorado has already begun to organize western states in oppo- sition to the act, on the ground that the authority might appropriate and misuse the irrigation rights Cobra da feels 1t has in the headwaters of the Arkansas River, which flows though southeastern Colorado, one of the worst-hit areas of the dust bowl.
 MAY BE ISSUE
 IN CAMPAIGN
 Right now, the idea of the Ar kansas crowd is to let Colorado write It's own ticket on those irrigation rights. The Arkansas river has no power development possibilities, but Its potentialities for flood damage are enormous, and any water im- pounded in Colorado for irrigation would merely help solve the flood menace down stream.
 The fight may be an issue in the coming Colorado senatorial election. Governor Carr is @ candidate for the seat now held by Senator Ed win Q. Johnson.
 And there will also be plenty of opposition from private power com panies, particularly Harvey Couch's Arkansas Power and Light Com pany, which is controlled by Elec- trio Power and Light Company, which is a subsidiary of the hold ing company, Electric Bond and Share.
