The Railroad, part 12
In 1844 Asa Whitney envisioned a railroad, stretching across the United States from ocean to ocean and began seeking possible routes that would reach from Lake Michigan to the Pacific Coast. Before Congress he proposes such a railroad, asked for a vast land grant, and assures Congress that the Indians will be of no concern. In the next ten years many Indian tribes are forced to concede thousands of acres with some tribes being removed to Indian Territory. The Union Pacific is given until July 1, 1876, to reach the western boundary of Nevada Territory, and God help anyone, white or red, who stands in its way.

Fort Simcoe, Washington Territory
Many western forts were built due to problems with the Native American tribes. Fort Simcoe was no exception. The Yakama, Cayuse, and others had been harassing white settlers in what would become south-central Washington State. Fort Simcoe was probably one of the shortest lived forts due to quick settlement of hostilities.
