OMAHA
SELECTED AS EASTERN TERM
mus OF UNION PACIFIC BY
PECULIAR INCIDENT.
Southern Sympathizers Tore United
States Flag From Postoffiee Build
ing at St. Joseph, Which lncensed
Members of Congress When Site
Was Under Consideration.

The following from the St. Joseph
(Mo.) Gazette is of local interest. A
writer on this paper knew General
jeff Thompson well and for years
was the roommate of his brother,
Judge Broaddus Thompson, who was
Mark Twain's Colonel Mulberry Sell
ers' in THE Gilded Age"
One of the most stirring incidents of
the civil val time in St. Joseph was
the tearing down of the flag from the
postottice building, the outgrowth of
which was the loss of the eastern ter
minus of the Union Pacific railroad.
In the early days of 1861 excitement
ran high in St. Joseph, and there was
great u~neasiness, as the hot-headed
s~ecessionists nad uttered many threats
against the u%niunists, and particularly
those who had voted for Lincoln. 1t
was in the midst of this trouble that
occurred the incident which lost to st.
Joseph the opportunity of being today
a city of half a million people.
John l.. Bittinger had just been ap-
pointed postmaster by PRESIDENT Lin
coin, and over the postoffice, which at
that time stood lea Second and Fran
els streets raised a large American
flag.
This action was considered by the
secessionists as a great affront. The
flag was regularly raised every morn
ing and lowered in the evening until
one day, early in May, 1861, a mob
gathered in market square, and an
angry discussion of the affair took
place. Many were for attacking the
p~ostofice and tearing down the flag.
While the discussion was at its
height Colonel JEFF thompson, who
was then a real estate dealer in part
nership with Thomas Harbine, oppo-
site the p~ostoffice building, left his
office and joined the crowd. He mount
ed a box n addressed the mob. He
denounced the course of Postmaster
Bittinger. but counseleu moderation.
But, seized with a sudden impulse, he
jumped from the box, dashed through
the crowd. and, proceeding to the rear
of the postoffice building, he assembled
to the roof and tore down the flag.
The action was cheered and cheered
again by the crowd. Thompson stood
upon the edge Of the roof. waving the
flag to the crowd and excitedly blow.
ing n tin horn. The mob then charged
to the rear Of the building, and,
mounting to the roof, tore the Gag
to shreds, broke the Flagstaff from the
roof. and. returning to the street again,
carried it in a triumphant procession
to the river, where 1t was broken to
bits and thrown upon the water.
No resistance was offered to the
mob, and, cheered by its action at the
p%ostofice, 1t moved toward Turns
hall. where another nag had heeu
thrown to the breeze. Several msa;
] bers of the Turner society hastily n

suit.
The immediate result of this out.
burst Of rebellion was the sending Of a
company of United States dragons
from Fort Leavenworth, under the
command Of Captain Sully, for whom
old Fort Sully, built on q hill COM
manding Fort Leavenworth, was
named.
The after effect of the incident, how.
ever, was disasterous. Just at that
time the matter OF deciding upon the
eastern terminus of the Union Pacific
railroad was pending in congress. St.
Joseph and Omaha were the leading
candidates, with the chances all in
favor Of st. Joseph. Senators Wilson
and Henderson were pushing st, Jo-
seph, and success seemed assured.
but just at the critical moment, when
congress was infiamed with the dis
loyalty of the southern states, an On
aha champion arose, and In feryid elo-
quence recited the fact that the Ameri-
can flag had been torn from the St.
Joseph postofice building by a mob,
and the further fact that the constant
presence of federal troops was re.
quired to maintain order. In %conclud.
ing his speech, he said that such dis
loyalty deserved severe rebuke, and
that the proper way Of administering
1t was to start the eastern terminus
OF the Union Pacific from Omaha. He
rouse the passion of the congress-
men to such an extent that when the
matter came to a vote Omaha was Civ
en- the coveted prize.
1t was a blow that st. Joseph feels
TO this day. st. Joseph was then the
leading city on the Missouri river,
But for the flag incident, it would to-
day be a city of 100000 people, and the
commercial metropolis Of the great
western empire.
