Thomas Edisons Quest To Get America Plugged In Was Not An Easy Feat Even With Horsepower
by Michele Guttenberger magine if a celebrated scientific inventor came to your town to bring a new type of power and technology that the world had never experienced before. Your town would get the first prototype and it would soon revolutionize the modern world. The town was Brockton, Massachusetts. The inventor was Thomas Alva Edison and the year was 1882. This was when the world's first standardized central power system was conceived for the city of Brockton months before Edisons plans for New York City. Edisons 1880 patent for a three wire underground electrical system became a working reality at Brockton. He and the Edison Electric Illuminating Company electrified the theater, fire station, shoe factory, high school and the residential home of Colonel Whipple. Although, Edison would be world renowned for his incandescent light bulb, he realized that his electrical inventions could not have indispensible household importance without a centralized network of power plugged in to each building. As strong as his passion was to develop a better light bulb, so was his determination to see his vision of average American towns and cities wired to central power stations. To sum up Edisons vision in his own words "We will make electricity so cheap that only the rich will burn candles. The completion of the crown jewel of The Brockton Operation came on December 30, 1884, when the first electrically operated fire station showcased an automated alarm system. In 1884, the horsepower to move these fire engines was literally powered by horses. With the new Edison system (tagged as the Getaway) once an alarm
came in, every light was automatically turned on; electric impulses dropped weights which unlatched horse stalls to exit out the horses. Once the horse was in its assigned position, a motor and pulley system that suspended the harness gear directly above them, now automatically lowered it onto their backs. This marvelous moment was made possible by the power of electricity. But, this modern feat was not received with joy by everyone. Edison did not count on regional bureaucrats determined to throw a monkey wrench in the path of electrical automation. Edison faced the red tape of occupancy like permits. He had to battle a coalition of insurance lobbyists with intentions to sway state officials to terminate his automated system on the grounds of safety issues. The State Bureau of Insurance Companies favored gas companies and stated that it would continue to view gas as the only safe method of illumination. The Bureau also demanded express written permission on all future insurance policies regarding the use of Edison-generated electricity in Brockton buildings or else their fire insurance would be invalidated. Edison was ordered to cease this technology. The hostile and slanderous reception of his Brockton Operation left Edison to dash any thoughts of promoting positive notoriety of Brocktons successful feats through the companys own campaign material. Edison would build his fanfare and accolades from the political friendly Pearl Street generating station and electrical power distribution system. This station was powered up on September 4, 1882 and it provided 110 volts of DC -Direct Current to 59 customers in lower Manhattan. According to a recent Brockton historian, when the fire-
houses favorite horse Billy B. Darned died, the handsome steed to be its successor was respectfully named Tommy Edison. Apparently the Brockton Fire Department was delighted with Edisons ingenuity.

Hours are 9:00am - 5:00pm Fee is $7.00 211 Main Street West Orange, NJ 07052 Visit website for more details http://www.nps.gov/edis/index.htm

his summer, take a hint from Americas best restaurants and spice up your happy hour with fresh and pure tastes, vegetables from your yard and natural ingredients from the farmers market. Drinks and dishes are full of flavor and come in smaller portions, so guests can mix and match little bites and mouthwatering sips all night long. This recipe make use of an unexpected, wholesome ingredient pure maple syrup from Canada. This all-natural syrup adds a hint of sweetness and depth of flavor that makes each cocktail pairing shine. Maple syrup is a healthy and tasty pick when choosing a sweetener. It comes directly from tree sap and has a wide range of nutrients and antioxidants not found in other sweeteners. According to the University of Rhode Island, maple syrup from Canada features 54 antioxidants, some of which are similar to those found in super foods like berries, tea, red wine and flaxseed. Visit www.purecanadamaple.com, become a fan of Canada Maple Syrup on Facebook, or follow @PureCanadaMaple on Twitter for more recipes to redo your happy hour. Cooking with Maple Syrup Maple syrup comes in different grades. Syrup made from
sap tapped at the beginning of harvest is clearer and more delicate in taste. As the season advances, maple syrup becomes darker and more intense in flavor. The natural sweetener offers a variety of flavor components, including nutty, vanilla, coffee, caramel and floral notes. Grade A maple syrup is meant for everyday use and can easily be found at the grocery store. Curious how to use the different grades of maple syrup for cooking? Grade A Light works well in salad vinaigrettes, and Grade A Medium or Dark taste delicious on breads or as a rub on meats. All pure maple syrup grades are a great substitute for sugar or simple syrup in cocktails or non-alcoholic drinks.
