This is the most important ad dition to the local business in stitutions that has taken place in some time, and has a big bearing on the financial and commercial welfare of this city. The deci sion of the Standard Oil Company to establish their distributing pjant here was reached only after a thorough analytical study of business conditiocs, and the growth of the city and the com munity surrounding Maupin, with a particular view to its pos sibilities of expansion and prog ress, and it expresses the Stand ard Oil Company's judgement and confidence in the future of this community. II i? expected that the new in stitution will be open for busi ness within.sixty days. In the past Maupin and the sur rounding community have been served from the Standard Oil Company's Substation at The Dalles, but the increase in the amount of business done and the demands fo more thorough ser vice in the country tributary to this city has been one of the rea sons why this ocal station is built The station u hich the Standard Oil Company will build will con sit of the necessary large storage tanks and wareho.ee facilities for handling the piincipal pro ducts of the Company , which are Pearl Oil, Red Crown Gasoline, Standard Engine Distillate, Zero line Oils and Greases, as well as the oils and greases required for industrial uses.
