more numerous than ever , and all the

who have gone Into the country earlier
v than usual.

The advent of theae big operators,
however, has had the effect of stimu
lating the mining industry throughout
" Alaska and Yukon territory and the re
sult, will be that the year will undoubt-
. edly ahow a greater production of gold
and copper than during any year In the
history of the country.
A most Important factor in the change
: that ha com during the last two weeks
Is the practical settlement of the fuel
' question by ' a contract made by the
Standard Oil company for supplying
from Its crude oil wells In California,
the big operators of Alaska. The tank
ships of the Standard will take the
crude oil from California fields to Alas-
Jean port and return laden with the
high grade refining oil from the Kat
alla fields. This will give the tank
hips a load In each direction, and will
serve to develop the high grade oils
of Alaska as well as securing a, new
market for the low grade fuel oils of
California.
.. Since the official announcement was
made a few days ago. Alaskans gener
ally have taken a more hopeful view of
.the situation and with the consumma
tion of theae several deals the business
- outlook for the year seems blighter
than usual.

Fine workmanship in a range is not
for its own sake especially commend
able, but right results through long
years are not possible without it. In
the Majestic factory the first question
is not "How it will look Y nor "How
will it sell?'; but "How will it affect
baking, cooking fuel economy and dur
ability?" There are hundreds of MA
JESTIC RANGES in use not only in
Portland, but all over the world, testi
fying daily to their superior worth
from the standpoint of fine baking,
cooking and fuel-saving.
