spike and the official telegraph message 'DONE' mark the end of six
years of labor on a massive scale that included about 20,000 Chinese
workers, as the US transcontinental railroad is completed. Once a
half-year's journey, the trip from one coast of North America to the
other now takes about a week.

1/2 lb Ground beef suet
+=OR=+
4 tb Olive oil)
2 1/2 lb Ground chuck beef
3 tb Tamoline chilli powder
1 cl Garlic
1 md Can whole tomatoes *
Garlic & onion granules
Salt & black pepper
Pinto beans

* 14 1/2 to 16 oz can - UDD

This recipe was retrieved from Grandmother's old recipe
file and recently mailed to us. It was scribbled on some
Union Pacific Railroad stationery sometime around
1920-1930.

When we made it, we added a few more garlic cloves, a
chopped jalapeno, an onion, and we substituted olive oil
for the beef suet! We cooked up the pinto beans with a
quart of beef broth for 20 minutes in a small pressure
cooker, but you can substitute 2 cans of pinto beans if
you prefer. A hearty old fashioned classic updated.

Put 1/2 lb. ground beef suet (or 4 tablespoons olive oil)
in kettle. Let render for 5 minutes. Then add 2 1/2 lb.
of lean ground beef (garlic, chopped onion). Salt to suit
taste.

Add 3 tablespoons of Tamoline chilli powder, a small
clove of garlic (or more) when nearly done.

Use but little water while cooking, add tomatoes or any
other seasoning you like -- add pinto beans cooked
separately.

1 June 1869 - THOMAS EDISON PATENTS HIS VERY FIRST INVENTION: a voting
machine meant for Congress.

According to Rutgers UniversityΓÇÖs Thomas A. Edison Papers Project, the 22-year-old inventor mightΓÇÖve been inspired to design the device after newspaper reports announced that both the New York state legislature and
the city council of Washington, D.C., were investigating means of
automating their ballot process. At the time, legislators voted by
calling out "Yea" or "Nay" (or something of that nature), and a clerk
jotted down their responses one by one.

EdisonΓÇÖs "electrographic vote-recorder" had the names of all the voters listed twice: in a "Yes" column on one side, and a "No" column on the
other. When a person flipped a switch to indicate their vote, the
machine would transmit the signal through an electric current and mark
their name in the corresponding column, while keeping track of the total
tally of votes on a dial. After everyone had voted, an attendant would
place a sheet of chemically treated paper on top of the columns and
press down on it with a metallic roller, imprinting the paper with the
results.
