Charles McAllister served as Chief of Police in Bisbee, Arizona, during the volatile mid-1880s, a time when the town was rapidly expanding due to the booming copper mining industry. As chief in 1886, McAllister was responsible for maintaining order in a frontier community marked by lawlessness, labor unrest, and frequent violence. His tenure followed the infamous 1883 Bisbee Massacre, and he played a key role in restoring public confidence in local law enforcement. McAllister's leadership helped transition Bisbee from a rough mining camp into a more organized municipality, reflecting the broader efforts across the Arizona Territory to impose structure and authority in the face of rapid development and social tension. After his time in Arizona Charles McAllister briefly served as Chief of Police in Deadwood, South Dakota, during the early 20th century under Mayor McDonald, likely around 1906. His appointment came during a more settled period in Deadwood's history, long after its notorious gold rush days of the 1870s. Though his tenure was short, McAllister was known as a competent and respected lawman. Unfortunately, his service was cut short, possibly due to declining health, as he was reportedly suffering from tuberculosis at the time. His role in Deadwood marked one of several public service positions he held during a career that spanned the law enforcement frontier of the American West.
