CELEBRATING OUR 24TH YEAR!
816 S. Grand Ave., Las Vegas, NM 87701
from Wildest of the WILD WesT
by Howard Bryan
Tom Mix, cowboy movie star, filmed cowboy Westerns in Las Vegas. Las Vegas elders watched with silent amusement as stagecoaches once again rolled through streets now served by electric streetcars and members of the younger generation reenacted action scenes of the Western frontier that were all too vivid in their memories. They had seen it all - the violence and trauma of life in the frontier West - and now they were seeing it again, staged this time for the entertainment of paying customers in comfortable movie houses over the nation.

In some way, the society of Bandits could be called the Hispanic counterpart of the anglo american Dodge City gang that had brought so much violence to the Las Vegas scene a decade before. silva, like Hoodoo Brown before him, managed to maintain an air of respectability in the community, while his followers, like those of Hoodoo Brown, often were known by descriptive nicknames, such as The shrunken One, The Dull One, The Flat-Nosed One, The Hawk, The Owl, and Frog Legs, and included a few who were members of the local police force. Murder, robbery, thievery, and rustling were rampant in san Miguel County during silva’s reign of terror in the early 1890s, but the citizens did not connect silva, the businessman, with any of it. His name seldom appeared in Las Vegas newspapers during his lifetime.
