The location ol Omaha at the gate-
wax of the trans continental trunk
line to the P.icllis. on the bank of the
Missouri , xx lib its ilnee thousand miles
of navigable'xv ater-xx ay betxveeti Fort
Henton and the Gulf of Mexico , has
given this city Miperior claim * a < a cen
tre for the distribution ol army Mip-
plies and the'qunrterlng of troops not
actvally employed on the plains , Dur
ing the war Omaha was Ibe headquar
ter * of n military district extending
over the then/terrilory of Nebraska ,
and including Ihe section of conn-
iry xvest of Nebraska located on the
, overland stage route this side of full.
Since iSd ; Omaha has been the
headquarters of a military division
known as the Department of the
Pintle , xvhich includes Nebraska , Wv-
ouiing , I'tab , and a poition of Dako-
, ta. A large share ol the commercial
and financial supremacy of Omaha in
the Missouri valley is due to the heavx
purchases and distribution of militarx
supplies at this point , and the band
ling of the ( pmrlerin.isier , eommissarx
and paymaster funds of the depart
iiient hx our banks. In 187 : the nu
