[LB022118], Letter from Thomas Alva Edison to William Jay Barnette, May 13th, 1886

Editor's Notes

Referring to yours of March 30th., the trouble with an electrical volt recording and indicating apparatus is that the Members of Congress do not want such a device. If they adopt it, it takes away from the minority the great weapon of filibustering. The first patent I ever took out was on an apparatus to achieve the same results, and I tried in vain to get it adopted. Yours very truly
