In reality it is more like 1800. In 1800 before the advent of electrodynamics, the consensus was that everything could be explained by Newtonian physics, much like everything today in the EU sense can be explained by electrical currents, potentials and magnetic fields.
Alex,
Have you ever found an electron? Electrons have never been observed directly in nature or in the laboratory. Should we therefore adopt your standard as for black holes or neutron stars, that electrons are hypothetical entities.
Isn't ironical that for an "empirical" science like EU or PC, the fundamental building block, the electron, has never been directly observed. 
Gentlemen have a Merry Christmas.

all too true Steven... speaking my language brother... the electron is an artifact of bert n co.

"Unfortunately, to large extent in dealing with dielectric fields the prehistoric conception of the electrostatic charge (electron) on the conductor still exists, and by its use destroys the analogy between the two components of the electric field, the magnetic and the dielectric, and makes the consideration of dielectric fields unnecessarily complicated" Charles Proteus Steinmetz

Lets keep going back to the pre 1900's descriptions shall we?
I'm glad you seem to appreciate the relevance Steven.
Merry xmas
