C Barth began iiis duties this roaming as clerk in the office of State Superintendent of Ranks 8. O. Sargent in place of Fritz Slade, who has been appointed state bank examiner. Mr. Slade alse began hie new duties about which so ranch has been said and de nied during the last week. The matter appears to be closed at present and will doubtless die the death of other politi cal squabbles and will he forgotten if the newly appointee bank examiner proves himself capable of conducting the duties of his office. If he proves "eompenent" some will say "1 told yon se" and it be does not prove competent, otners will say,." I told you se" and the matter will end at that. The resignation of Bank Examiner Siaims cansed the appointment of a new man and among the men recom mended by Mr. Sargent was the name of Alexander Martin,, cashier of the united states riational Hank, of Eu gene. Mr. Martin aonduetod a bank for years at Klamath Falls and was at one time president of the state bank ers association. It appears, however, that Mr, Martin in a democrat and the governor and State Treasurer Kay re fused to support a democrat for the position. Slade wag then recommended by Mr. Rnrent nnd the appointment ratified by the board. Then the charge arose that Slade wag an English sub ject and had not boeu naturalized as a citizen of the United States. The word "eompetont" wag then injected into tho controversy and considerable space was used in explanations. In a rocent statement issued, Mr. Sargent ays: "I regret exceedingly tho circum stances connected with this appoint ment and wish to state tiwt up to this time I have absolutely refused to be interviewed or to discuss for publica tion tho unfortunate affair. "I would like to say, however, that I do consider Mr. Slade a very com petent nnd trustworthy young man. Ho has made an unusually efficient assist ant in mv office dnring tho past two years but I have contended at all times and still contend that he is not quali fied, either by age or practical experi ence, for the important position of state bank examiner. "I have nothing brrt the most friend ly feeling towards every member of the stnte banking board and have no criti cisms to make of their action ia not continuing my appointment of Mr, Martin. Mr. Slade will make a very ef ficient assistant examiner, and under the new arrangement, the work will be nnndiert with equal facility and eon venience." -i 1 INTERESTING LECTURE Tells of Early History of the , State Story Brimming With Information PERSONALS Oeorgo TalmeT left for his home this mo ruing.

Himes, scretary of the Ore- gon Historical society Inst night in an address on the early days of Oregon, at the First Congregational chnrch. "Or egoa and the northwest is the only part of the United States that become snch through right of discovery, and the oiity part that has never been un der tiie flag of another country." The word Oregon was first used by Jonathan Carver in 1776. He traveled in parts of the central west after the French and Iadian war, and wrote a book en the coentry, which was pub lished in England iii 1777; Captain Gray, who sailed np the Col umbia ia 1792 was the real discoverer! of this country according to Mr. Himes and- it was through his discovery and travels that the United States made good its claims for the northwest in the dispute with England. 1 The following historical facts were noted by Mr. Himes, with stereoptican sliiUtfl illustrations of the early pioneers and historical places in the state: Lewis and Clark crossed the plains in 1805 and 1H06 and established a trading post at Astoria. The first saw mill west of the Rocky mountains was erected near Vancouver in 1857. The first public school west of the Rockies was taught by John Bull in 183S, near Vancouver. Jason Lee, in 834,- preached tho first Methodist sermon west of the Kochy mountains. The first marriace ceremony west of the great divide was performed by-Ja-soa Lee in 1837. Mrs. Elizabeth Riiaulding Warren is one or the oldest living pioneers, com ing to this country in 1837. Jason Lee built a honse in Salem in hil and part of this house is now standing. Tne old Benuet honse for mnnv rears the principal hotel in the valley, was built in Salem in 1S55. Tho. first postoffice in the state was as Astoria, Tho first bouse in Portland was built logs in 1844 and was on the corner of Front and Wnshiucton streets. 1 ha cornerstone of the state enpitol '. was laid in 1873. The stereoptican! view of the ceremony showed the Kay! Woolen Mills in the back ground. I The first Masonic lodge in Oregon was organized at Oregon City in 1848. tiiose interested in tho early days of the state, the recture was of unusual interest, as pictures were shown on the screen of many of the pioneers well snewn in i-saicm, nnd views of many of the buildings erected here by the pi oneers of tho '40s nnd '509.
