...running for sheriff in the town's first election while misanthropic magnate George Hearst (Gerald McRaney) is ruthlessly moving in on the mining operations. Saloonkeeper Al Swearengen (Ian McShane) sees Hearst's thugs as a threat to his crime-and-vice monopoly. "Bloodletting on my premises-- that I ain't approved--I take as a f__ing affront," he says.
