The government owned the first
telegraph line ever constructed. In
1S43 Congress appropriated $50, 600 to
assist Prof. Morse in perfecting his
system. The first line was paid for
from the appropriation, and was un-
der the charge OF tine J., N. General,
and for three years was operated by
the government in connection with
the postal system. Had the govern.
ment retained its hold on this great
invention and kept monopolists from
bleeding the people, hundreds of mil.
