THE GARDNER AUTOMATIC SAPETY-STOP GOVERNOR.
Th&se Governors have now becn sold in this market for scyeral years, and wherever once iutroduced and made
known, are invariably sought after,
are regarded ag the perfect regulator.
Tbey are in the Eastern States fast displacing all other Steam Governors, and
They are manufactured by Messrs {Gorchur & Robertson, practical engineers,
who have given many years time exclusively to their manufacture and yn. The man say: After
an experience of eleven years in the manufactare of the above Governor, during which time several importent improvements haye been made and two
additional patents obtained, we feel
justified in recommending it to all
parties using Steam power, and warranting it to be the most perfect regulator in the market,
The Gardner Governor ie so well
known that we think it unnecessary to
enterinto # detailed explanation of the
principles inyolyed, or details in its
construction, merely giving the lcading objects realized by thie important
invention, The Governor combines
with the greatest simplicity of construction, accurate regulation of speed,
POSITIVE INSURANOE AGAINST ALL ACCINENTS LIABLE TO OCOUR FROM SLIPPING
OR PARTING THE GOVERNOR GE DRIVING
BELTS, and a convenient arrangement
for ADJUSTING THE SPEED OF THE ENGINE WHILE IN MOTION, without change
of pullies.
The construction of the Governor ie
extremely simple, haying no springs,
inside joints, swlyeis, or parts liable
to disarrangement, all the several parte
are duplicates of exch other in the same
series; the most skillful workmen are
employed, the best material used and
the machinery employed especlully
adapted to their manufacture, Tbe
valve is most PERFECTLY RALANCED,
and the Governor Is built with a view
of securing the quickest and most sensitive action possibly attainable in a
steam regulator, Thus witb accurate
machinery, and skilled labor, and devoting our WHOLE ATTENTION to the
manufacture of THIS ONE ARTICLE, we
are able to produce a perfect and reliable Governor at a low price,
We do not publish any lettere of recommendations, but can give references
to upwards of 5,000 PARTIES THROUGH
OUT TAE UNITED SraTEs, who are using
the Gardner Governor.
We would especially invite the attention of steam Engine Builders to this
Governor, feeling assured that they
can purchase for lese than they can
make an inferior article, and thereby
increase the value and sales of their
es.
We respectfully refer to the following parties using the GanpNER GoyERNOR, and can speak understandingly
of ite merits: Oakland Cotton Mills,
the Selby Lead and Silver Smelting
Works, L, & E. Emanuel, Yulcan Iron
Works, Fulton Foundry, Levieon Bros.,
Cal. Jewelry Co., Pioneer Woolen Factory, D. A. McDonald & Co., and others in San Franciseo; Ophir Co., Lady
Bryan, and Sacramento and Meredith Mills, John McCone, Virginia, Ney.; Globe iron Works, Stockton; A. F.
Chury,' Albany, Oregon, and many others.
IG WE W. ARRANT these Governors to give perfect regulation of speed under all circumstances; and if there is . _
one withIn one thousand miles of San Francisco, that is not giving perfect satisfaction, it may be returned to us
at our expense, and we will exchange it for any other Governor in the country, or refund its price.
