Godina je 1903. Hrvatska je dio Austro Ugarske Monarhije. Provode se germanizacija i mađarizacija. Jedan od oblika mađarizacije je bio i pokušaj uvođenja mađarskog jezika kao službenoga na hrvatskim željeznicama. Podaci na putničkim kartama i oznake na pločama trebale su biti ispisane na mađarskome, a vlada iz Budimpešte na rukovodeće je pozicije postavljala isključivo svoje ljude, koji nisu govorili hrvatski. Sve je počelo na Veliku subotu, u travnju 1903. U trenutku kada su čuli da je na željezničkom kolodvoru izvješena mađarska zastava, zaprešićki su se seljaci nalazili u Stanišakovoj krčmi, te su se okrijepljeni rakijom, zaputili na mjesto događaja predvođeni vatrogasnim trubačem Stjepanom Jugom. Skidanje i paljenje zastave okupilo je veliko mnoštvo. U sukobu sa žandarima poginuo je Ivan Pasarić a 13 je sudionika osuđeno na zatvorske kazne. Četiri mjeseca nakon tih događaja, 18. kolovoza, na rođendan cara Franje Josipa zastava je ponovno izvješena. Ovaj se puta na zaprešićkom kolodvoru okupilo 1.000 mještana. Među njima je bila i trinaestogodišnja Jelica Jug koja se popela na kesten u pokušaju skidanja zastave. U sukobu s vlastima poginuli su Josip Beluhan iz Brdovca i Vid Noršić-Čekula iz Zdenaca a Jelica je uhićena zajedno s nekolicinom sumještana. Puštena je na slobodu nakon tri dana. Jelica Jug rođena je u siromašnoj zaprešićkoj obitelji. Kuća Jugovih nalazila se iza današnjeg Doma zdravlja u centru. Imala je brata Stjepana i tri sestre: Baricu, Katicu i Anu. Kao niti većina djece u Zaprešiću u to doba nije pohađala školu. U doba pobune bilo joj je trinaest godina. Nakon što je puštena iz zatvora, zaposlila se kao služavka jedne zagrebačke obitelji. U dobi od petnaest godina oboljela je od tuberkuloze od koje se liječila u bolnici na Trgu bana Josipa Jelačića. Bilo joj je samo šesnaest godina kada je tragično skončao njezin mladi život. Prema predaji, pokopana je običnu jamu na Jurjevskom groblju na zagrebačkom Gornjem gradu. U tu su se jamu zakapali siromasi i oni koji nisu imali nikoga. Jelica nema grob, njenog imena nema na spomen ploči, ni wikipedija vam o njoj neće puno reći. U Zaprešiću njeno ime nosi jedna mala slijepa ulica i to je sve. 2015. godine su učenici srednje škole Ban Josip Jelačić u suradnji sa studentima Veleučilišta Baltazar postavljaju izložbu "Zaš niš ne znamo o Jelici Jug?" te izdaju publikaciju koja se može posuditi u zaprešićkoj knjižnici. Ja joj posvećujem ovaj keš, na Veliku subotu 2022.

The year is 1903. Croatia is part of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. Germanization and Hungarianization are taking place. One of the forms of Hungarianization was the attempt to introduce the Hungarian language as the official language on the Croatian railways. The data on the passenger tickets and the signs were supposed to be written in Hungarian, and the government from Budapest appointed its own people, who did not speak Croatian, to the leading positions. It all started on Holy Saturday, April 1903. At the moment when they heard that the Hungarian flag was displayed at the railway station, the villagers of Zaprešić were in Stanišak's tavern, and refreshed with brandy, they went to the scene led by the trumpeter Stjepan Jug. The removal and burning of the flag gathered a large crowd. Ivan Pasarić was killed in a clash with gendarmes, and 13 participants were sentenced to prison. Four months after these events, on August 18, on the birthday of Emperor Francis Joseph, the flag was hoisted again. This time 1,000 locals gathered at the Zaprešić railway station. Among them was thirteen-year-old Jelica Jug, who climbed a chestnut tree in an attempt to remove the flag. Josip Beluhan from Brdovec and VId Noršić-Čekula from Zdenci were killed in a conflict with the authorities, and Jelica was arrested along with several others. She was released after three days. Jelica Jug was born into a poor family from Zaprešić. The Jug family house was located behind today's Zaprešić Health Center. She had brother Stjepan and three sisters: Barica, Katica and Ana. Like most children in Zaprešić, she did not attend school at that time. After she was released from prison, she got a job as a servant of a Zagreb family. At the age of fifteen, she contracted tuberculosis and was treated at the hospital at Ban Josip Jelačić Square. She was only sixteen when her young life tragically ended. According to legend, she was buried in an ordinary pit at the Jurjevsko Cemetery in Zagreb's Upper Town. The poor and those who had no one were buried in that pit. Jelica doesn't have a grave, her name is not on the memorial plaque at the railway station, and wikipedia won't tell you much about her. In Zaprešić, a small dead end street is named after her and that's it. In 2015, the pupils of the Ban Josip Jelačić High School, in cooperation with the students of the Baltazar University, set up the exhibition "Why don't we know anything about Jelica Jug?" and published a publication that can be borrowed from the Zaprešić library. I dedicate this cash to her, on Holy Saturday 2022.
