Nebraska Man Visits
Old Friend In Salem;
Was Pioneer of Oregon

A. J. Leach of Oakdale, Nebraska,
was the guest of l.. IL. Suter for a few
days. Mr., Leach came to Oregon over
land an 1852, about &C years ago, and
long before any railroad crossed the
Rocky mountains. when Portland was
but small village composed of log
cabins, among stumps He taught
school near Candy before that village
existed and at Dallas when 1t was a
very small burg. He rode ON horse
back and travelled on foot all over. the
Willamette valley, frcm Albany to the
Columbia river, over what was then
mostly trails, While here he visited the
Lee Mission cemetery and found in
seriptions of people whom he had for
merly known. He was acquainted with
Spaulding Mclaughlin and most of our
historical characters. He is now nearly
81 years old and can readily walk 10
or 20 miles and is very erect, in so
much that Reverend Phelps comment
ed to him, and Mr.. Leach replied that
he could kick the overhead electric jet
but did not wish to break the glass,
but to prove his assertion he raised
his foot within inches without any
Iexertion. He lived here seven years and
returned to Michigan and later remov-
ed to Nebraska, where he helped to or
gauize Antelope county and served as
its first county superintendent without
pay and even bore his own expenses.
He has during the past 10 years not
only written the history of Antelope
county, but he has published book
Of S5 chapters, called stories of early
days, in which among other very in.
tereSting things he tells of his trip to
Oregon when he and another lad, but

Transport Is Completed
That Is Torpedo Proof

New York, Feb. 11.-Means have been
found to make transports unsuitable
by submarines, according to state
ment made tonight by William L. Saun-
ders, vice-president of the Naval Con
sulting Board, in an ADDRESS at dinner
of the University of Pennsylvania alum
nj in this city.
Mr.. Saunders said that one of the
ships recently commandeered by the
government "now lies at an Atlantic
port, and in such shape that she can
not be sunk by an exploding torpedo.
Enemy Should Know It.
fsI can conceive Of no reason why
this information should be withheld, -
he added. "On the contrary, believe
it is well that the enemy may come to
realize that the time has been reached
when American transports are ready for
the transportation of our troops which
that enemy cannot sink.
s'This ship may have a hole 30 or
40 feet in diameter blown in her side,
and she viii remain afloat. Such hole
would water-log but one-tenth of the
honeycombed alright cells"
Ship VIII Stay Afloat
Mr.. Saunders described in detail the
plan to keep ships afloat after they
had been torpedoed and the manner in
which it had been torpedoed and the
manner in which it had been developed
by William Donnelly, New York ma
