The ori gin of the name dates back to 1835. ' j In that year, Morse - the inventor o.f the telegraph, first made his ap pearance in Washington, and when Congress met he.was on hand to tryto secure an appropriation: of seventeen thousam dollars to build an experi--iiiental telegraph line to from Waslis iiigton to Baltimore, j He brought tdong with him his wires, instruments and electrical geaerator. . 'I'he former be stretched, in and .irdiind th Capitol htiilding, with ilnstrunients here and there, and the generatdrv which was operated with at crank, he'placed in ;a convenient iocation and secured the services of a nan to do the generating. x The experiment created intense iu fjerest among the members of Con gress, especially among the- northern members of the Senate. . They be came eo absorbed in Mr. Morse and his experiment, anTl , they neglected fheir business in the Senate to such in extent, thit that body was fre quently without a quorum.- , . The center of their 1 interest wag the crank machine turned by the I man in his operation of generating the electric current for the wires. Irhe iirterest increased as Mr. Morse each day-more clearly demon-' fctrated the practicability of his in vention, and the public's business in the Senate suffered accordingly. ' Finally Senator Benton's patience bt'camle exhausted at the want ot a yuorum, and, rising" ill the Senate one moriiing, he, said: j "Mr. Pre:3b dentit is quite evident to my mind phat we will never be :able to pro But the puu'jjose of this artnj-le is' to cratic press at its birth. .-First we are met by the object ion, it would cost tin) govern- vrould bankrupt the goveriliment, it never could pay for the roads. .
