Childers then sought out his ***chief mine guard***, Jim Daniels, who had already learned of impending trouble and was organizing a ten-man posse to meet the truck at Verda.

At the first shot, the column jerked to a stop. One of the first men to leap out of the cars was Jim Daniels, **chief mine guard**, special deputy and one of the most hated anti-union officers in Harlan County. He immediately took cover behind an earthen mound, but when he peered over the top, a miner shot him in the head.

chief mine superintendent
A sort of amalgam of the first two answers
I don't think this person is simply a guard
More like a manager

I have no doubt that this person "manages shifts"
But I think that would be too restrictive
"Superintendent" covers the wide range of duties involved
