THE GARDNER AUTOMATIC SAFETY-STOP GOVERNOR.
These Governors have now been sold in this market for several years, and wherever once introduced and made
Known, are invariably sought after, They are in the Eastern States fast displacing all other Steam Governors, and
are regarded as the perfect regulator. i They are manufactured by Messrs. Gorchur & Robertson, practical
who have given many years time exclusively to their manufacture and perfecti ti
engineers,
The ma: say: After
an experience of eleven yeara in the manufactare of the aboye Governor, during which time several important 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 is so well
known that we think it unnecessary to
enterinto a detailed explanation of the
principles involved, or details in its
construction, merely giving the leading objects realized by this important
invention. The Governor combines
with the greatest simplicity of construction, accnrateregulation of speed,
POSITIVE INSURANCE AGAINST ALL ACO
NENTS LIABLE TO OCOUR FROM SLIPPING
OR PARTING THE GOVERNOR OB NEIVING
BELTS, and a convenient arrangement
for ADJUSTING THE SPEED OF THE ENGINE WHILE IN MOTION, withont change
of pullies.
The construction of the Governor is
extremely simple, having no springs,
inside joints, swivels, or parts liable
to disarrangement, all the severs! parts
are duplicates of exch other in the same
series; the most skillful workmen are
employed, the best material used and
the machinery employed especially
Cal. Jewelry Co,, Pioneer Woolen Factory,
adapted to their manufacture. The
valve is most PERFECTLY BALANCED,
and the Governor is built with a view
of securing the quickeat and most sensitive action possibly attainable in a
steam regulator. Thus with accurate
machinery, and skilled labor, and devoting our WHOLE ATTENTION to the
manufacture of THIS ONE ARTICLE, we
sre able to produce a perfect and reliable Governor at a low price.
We do not publish any letters of recommendations, but can give references
to upwards of 5,000 PARTIES THROUGH-—
OUT TRE UNITED STATES, 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 less than they can
make an inferior article, and thereby
increase the value and sales of their
Engines.
We respectfully refer to the followIng parties using the GannNER GovERNOR, and can speak understandingly
ofita merits: Oakland Cotton Mills,
the Selby Lead and Silver Smelting
Works, L, & E, Emanuel, Vulcan Iron
Works, Fulton Foundry, Levison Bros.,
D. A. McDonald & Co., and others in San Francisco; Ophir Co., Lady
Bryan,’and Sacramento and Meredith Mills, John McCone, Virginis, Nev.; Globe Iron Works, Stockton; A. F.
Chury, (Albany, Oregon, and many others.
RI WE WA: RRANT these Governors to give perfect regulation of speed under all circnmstances; 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.
iWhen ordering please state whether THrorrLe-VaLvE is wanted or not; and whether Biocx or FinisHEeD
Governor is desired.
