Power increasing lever by Oregon inventors
James Zenor of St Johns and James Whittingham of Baker City have jointly built a lever power device to attach to steam, electric or water engines. They claim it could multiply engine power by at least eight times after losses. The model, under construction on Taylor street, is patented in the United States with papers filed from Baker City. Inventors plan to sell patent rights nationally or by state if successful, and machinists call it a complete success though market pricing awaits perfection. The Fisher Music Company showed interest for a gasoline launch but the inventors hold firm on price until testing proves the device.
