Feature Story
Nathan and his
14-year-old son, Bernard, are shown demonstrating
the NBS RF transmitter and speaker system in 1902,
at Belmont Park, Philadelphia.
Just like in today's world of tantamount news
worthy articles, they are being plagued by the same
mysterious scientific terms and words of bigotry
that plagued consumers at the turn of the 20th
century.
The 1902, and 1927 NBS and Fessenden news articles
and photos just recovered by blogger's Scott
McLean, and Suzan Schweizer, the daughter of Ewin
L. Peterson, the 1930, FM-TV frequency inventor,
clearly show the reglatory misdeeds brought on by
the 1917, war-time Sedition Act.
The Act, comfirmed the right to seize the telecom
frequency assets owned by Stubblefield, Marconi and
Fessenden, by government, without
proper payment,

The words and things of mystery then were; aerials,
coils, ether sky, phony, Stubblefield, Marconi, and
the patent laws that were putting the wireless
telephony, telegraphy, and telephone company
monopolies on the map.
The words used to help bring in the high finance
"sin trends" of the 20th century were: Yankees,
Hillbillys, Krauts, Spanish and Italian Americans.

/ Nathan Stubblefield, the inventor from Kentucky,
attempted to skirt around the sin trend idioms of
the day by playing up to family values. His
14-year-old son, Bernard, shown in photo above, and
the people-products of the South, watermelons,
Teléph-on-délgreen, Murray, Ada Mae,
and country music, were all the things loved and
cherished by the Stubblefield
family.

Their was no Wall Street, FCC, nor Eliot Spitzer,
the attorney general of New York hanging around at
the time of Stubblefield, to preach about AT&T,
WiFi, The Smart Daaf Borys, Verizon, Radio,
v-phones, and what free enterprize was supposed to
be all about. SEE

MORE STORY ABOUT NAPOLEON AND THE
PURCHASE
In The Daily Herald article, February 17,
1902, and several other newspapers,
Stubblefield's business partners were called
conniving financial "rascals", nimble-witted
Yankees from Philadelphia, and many other
unmentionables, by the news
media.
Stubblefield himself made a few unwittingly
statements, like the one at a January, 1902
luncheon press interview, while beverages were
pored and bread was broken.
He was asked by a
reporter, "what he thought about Marconi's recent
historical December, 1901 trans-atlantic
transmission." Stubblefield veered from the serious
to an inconsequential chitchat answer stating that,
"it was just a thought of his imagination, right
out of the air, because he, (Marconi) was the only
one that heard the letter "S" being sent by Morse
Code from England.
Although his answer was correct, the snide answer
was devastating to Stubblefield. Thereafter his
statements were often used out of context. One is
found in the Fort
Wayne Morning Journal-Gazette - April 26, 1903,
when Stubblefield
was quoted as saying that, "I can only say that I
use the earth, as the medium for carrying the sound
wave, where Marconi employes the air."
The true statement was: "I can only say that by
attaching my wireless telephone transmitter to a
grounded earth coil aerial -- is the medium I use
for carrying voice sound waves through the ether,
whereas, Marconi employes the ether as the medium
for carrying the Morse Code Dot Dash signals
through the air."
Of course, at that time there was no Wall Street,
nor Eliot Spitzer, the attorney general of New
York, to preach what free enterprize, freedom of
speech and democracy was all about.

PAYOLA
During Stubblefield and Marconi's time, public
demonstrations and the releasing of new products to
the market place, were the only methods the
inventor could pull out the true patent owners, if
any.
Today, in the TeleCom business, big business will
get bigger by FCC regulation commitments. If
Stubblefield were still around, he would be telling
the FCC, "all he desires with his Wireless
Telephone system, is choice and value, more
phone numbers from the land-line phone companies,
AT&T, Verizon and Sprint, at a fair price.
Stubblefield would include the promises that he
could deliver more choices and value to the
consumer, via grounded energy connected to special
antennas, "the messenger boy from earth." The
following newspaper archives were found by Scot
Maclean, of Palos Verdis, California.
From the
Fort Wayne Morning Journal-Gazette - April 26,
1903
Stubblefield last week succeeded in
receiving a message from Paducah, 54 miles distant,
and is now so confident of the success of his
invention that he has advertised his home for sale
and intends to purchase a place near Washington,
where he claims the conditions for experimenting
are better. (More story) When asked regarding his
latest experiment with his wireless telephone, Mr.
Stubblefield said:
"Miss Carrie Colley of Paducah on Monday,
March 22, between the hours of 5 and 6 o'clock,
spoke this sentence to a gentleman
in Murray: 'This is Puducah.' The words came in a
clear and highly audible tone. I am not acquainted
with the operator at Paducah. I got her name from
Miss Stella Lennon of the Murray exchange. On
Monday, March 20, a telephone message from Browns
Grove, Calloway county, eight or nine miles away
was received by me, Edward S. Dingald of Murray and
Charley Jordon of Browns Grove were talking. Jordon
asked Dingald, who is a hardware man, the price of
some article and Dingald replied that he would have
to look it up. Returning, to the telephone
presently he said: "The two will cost you $1.50."
Jordon's reply was: "Order them at
once."
"Many times recently Dr. Canfield of Lynn
Grove and Story Ferguson of this place have
discussed business with me through the medium of my
wireless telephone. On Saturday night, March 26,
quite a long talk was heard by me between some
parties one of whom was at Sandy, up the Tennessee
river about 38 miles. The man's name was Welckin,
but I did not catch the other's name. Miss Alice
Payne, the operator at the Mayfield center, is
often heard by me and Miss Lentin at the Murray
central. We also get voices from Farmlngton and
other points. I have heard voices that I recognized
as Horace Churchill, A. Thompson, Jesse Sexton, Dr.
Wall, Ron Keys and
others.''
"I have no wire connection with the town,
nor have I any earth connections near any wires
leading into town from any point." Inventor
Stubblefield refuses most positively to give out
exact information regarding his system. "I could
not afford to let the scientific world know how I
do those things or my method of ground
connections.' I can only say that I use the earth
as the medium for carrying the sound waves where
Marconi employes the air." [sic]
"I can only say that I use a
transmitter and aerial grounded to the earth -- as
the medium for carrying voice sound waves through
the sky, where Marconi employes the air to transmit
the Morse code
signals."
Stubblefield is assisted by his young son
Bernard, who has astonished his father by his
genius in the working out of difficult problems and
together they have accomplished wonders, resulting
in the most intense excitement of the people of
Calloway county and discussion in the scientific
world. Spoken into an ordinary telephone receiver
the voice of the speaker comes clear and distinct
to the person at the other station. The Morse
telegraph signals in the office at Murray, one and
one-half miles from Stubblefield experimental
station, can be plainly heard. Speaking of this
feature of the sounds that come to his station,
Inventor Stubblefield
says:
"This proves to my mind that the day of
practical long distance wireless telephone is at
hand if worked out on the line of system. I propose
soon to send the human voice hundreds of miles.
This would have been done, had not the "gold brick
road" gotten hold of me when I was cast in the
search of legitimate capital.
The fellow Fennel who undertook to stock a
company for the development of the system went at
it in an illegitimate way, and I stopped him so
that, the company has passed out of existence and
although it has been published in the scientific
papers that the Fennel company is developing my
system such is not the case. Once located in a
country where the population is sufficient to
justify it, Stubblefield thinks he can start
a wireless telephone
newspaper. Speaking of this idea he
said:
"Gathering up conversations carried on
between different personas in various parts of the
country as we do here, it is perfectly clear to me
that, the news of the country could be reported to
a fixed caller at a cost that, would be exceedingly
small. Such a paper might get much news that its
contemporaries would not have access to and some
that the people concerned might not wish
published." (Note: a caller refers to a person that
has a fixed phone number connected to a land-line,
or a radio frequency number like, 1240AM or 92.1FM
that can tune in to the broadcast.)
As to the difficulties to be overcome is the
commingling of voices or noises coming at the same
time and the pessimists say that in a city only a
continuous signaling would be heard. Stubblefield
says, "this is not the case, however, as during his
public test in the town of Murray last, year he was
able to control the messages, having them come to
him one at a time.
"A little more than a year ago," said
Stubblefield today, "I made the state ment that the
human voice could be heard across the Atlantic with
the per fection of my apparatus, and today I stand
ready to prove my statement. I believe I have gone
deeper into the system of wireless telephone than
any other man, with all due respect to our friends
across the sea and to Prof. Collins of Narbeth,
Pa."
"My system as it stands now will transmit
the voice by water for many miles from moving
vessels with but little electric force. We can
equip all steamers, say between Paducah and Cairo,
a distance of 40 miles with proper earth
connections that messages can be exchanged between
the steamers themselves and between them and the
land stations at will. No wire connections are
required except [sic] for those water level
plates attached on each of the vessels. From my
experiments last summer on the Schuylkill River at
Philadelphia I found this to be possible."

Stubblefield does not intimate at what time
he will give out the diagrams of his apparatus. His
workshop is in his home (Tel-eph-on-delgreen) which
is located on a farm several miles from Murray and
all of his preliminary experiments have been
carried on with great secrecy on account of the
comparative isolation of the place. He is quite as
proud of the part which his boy has played to
working on his apparatus as he is of the success of
his public exhibition. He speaks entertainingly on
the question of his invention and the
possibilities.
As insidious and penetrating as the
wonderful X-ray, stopping for no material object,
"the electric envelope of the earth" bore the
Stubblefield messages
Stubblefield claims, "This mysterious,
intangible envelope is what has made a messenger
boy for the millions that inhabit the
globe."
Nathan Stubblefield, the inventor, is,
according to his own description, "a practical
farmer, fruit grower and electrician." He owns
valuable farming property In the vicinity of Murray
and it is here that his experiments have been
carried on.
In regards to his 14-year-old son, and only
assistant in the work on the invention, Bernard B.,
Stubblefield Nathan says, "he should have the
credit for numerous valuable suggestions given in
the course of working up the details of the
invention."
The nature of the apparatus used by the
inventor is not known. He positively declines at
this time to give out either technical descriptions
or diagrams of the vital part of his apparatus. All
that is exposed to view while his apparatus is in
working order is the ordinary commercial telephone
transmitter and receiver. Within a brightly
polished box which is not opened to
public.
The inventor conceals his secret and he
says, "I will not disclose until it is perfected to
the smallest detail. and it will, when perfected,
bring up the sounds to any desired
pitch.
In speaking of his invention, Mr.
Stubblefield said:
"I know
that I have solved the problem of wireless
telephony, and I will now devote myself to
perfecting my apparatus. I want it to be perfect
when given to the public, and it is my desire that
it shall not appear with defects for the scientific
journals to pick to pieces. My device, it will be
possible to communicate with hundreds of homes at
the same time. A single message can be sent from a
central station to all parts of the United States.
I am confident that It will operate over long
distances and even at great distances the
transmitter will be no bulky instrument but quite
small and convenient to handle. I think that my
device would be invaluable in the matter of sending
out the United States Weather Bureau predictions.
In directing the movements of a fleet at sea and in
numerous ways which appeal to one at first
thought.
I am in hopes of getting a government
appropriation to aid me in carrying on my work, or
at least the promise of its adoption when
perfected. The possibilities of the invention seem
to be practically unlimited, and it will be no more
than a matter of time when conversation over long
distances between the great cities of the country
will be carried on daily without wires. I intend to
continue at work on my device and think that I will
get other startling results in a short time." Also

"The electric envelope of the earth" bore
the Stubblefield messages. This mysterious,
intangible envelope is what Stubblefield claims to
have made a messenger boy for the millions that
inhabit the globe.
Stubblefield devoted his entire attention to
the construction of a transmitter. Now,
Stubblefield says, "that with the completion of an
improved receiver, which has been partially
constructed, it will, when perfected, bring up the
sounds to any desired pitch (volume) With this
device, it will be possible to communicate with
hundreds of homes at the same time. A single
message can be sent from a central station to all
parts of the United States.The device would be
invaluable in the matter of sending out the United
States Weather Bureau predictions, in directing the
movements of a fleet at sea and in numerous ways
which appeal to one at first
thought."
Stubblefield claims, "the invention seem to
be practically unlimited and it will be no more
than a matter of time when conversation over long
distances between the great cities of a country
will be carried on daily without
wires.
Stubblefield says, " that a transmitter for
a long distance will not have to be of large size,
and in that event, European and American houses,
with properly tuned instrument, could hold daily
conversation over wireless instruments no more
cumbersome to the office than the first long
distance telephone boxes. (see loop antenna)
