Description:
Two photographs showing the State Insurance Company building. In the first photo, the Oregon Land Company office shares the building on the northwest corner of Commercial & Chemeketa streets in Salem. Herbert Hoover worked here as an office boy (at the Oregon Land Company of which his Uncle Henry John Minthorn was President), learning bookkeeping and typing. The second view is taken several years later, probably sometime in the late1890s. The Oregon Land Company location was then occupied by the Pacific Land & Orchard Co. This building later housed the Star Exchange and the first Elks Lodge in Salem. Two photographs showing the State Insurance Company building.
