BISHOP THURsTONs FIRST
VISIT TO V|N|TA CHURCH

st. Johns Episcopal church was
|packed last night with a deeply in
terested and appreciative audience,
drawn there by the announcement of
an address by Rt. Rev. Theodore Payne
Ehurston, D. D.. bishop of the eastern
diocese of Oklahoma and a musical
program by the Ruvanes of Parsons,
Kansas The service was one that
will bear fruit in the hearts of those
present.
The bishops message was Because
Ye Are Sons" and most impressively
did he show that all are the children of
God and must return to him. The COM
municants of st. Johns have reason
to feel elated over the coming of such
Ia personality to guide and lead the
church
The music met with the sincere tri-
butte of absolute silence and profound
appreciation. Mr.. and Mrs. Ruvane
were here about one year ago and
Vinita knew something Of what treat
was in store for them when it became
known they would be here Sunday
night. The beautiful solo, "a Little
While" and @The Penitent Prodigal," Z"
fit into the bishops service and made
deeply his message to the people.
Whenever it will be possible TO get
these musicians to return. Vinita will
show her appreciation as on this oc-
casion.

Harvey returned home, here last night
off of his second week since he be-
gan the organization of the White
Way routed from here to Vinita. In
two weeks time the organization is
assuming shape and another two
weeks will see it welded together pre-
paratory to an army of men with
teams and implements and machinery
ready for the task coming on April
10, II and IL.
The route is divided into three di-
visions of about 80 miles each to be
worked on consecutive days. The
first day, on the first division, will be
from Monte Ne to probably Gravette,
though Sulphur Springs is competinfi
to get on the line. The second day on
the second division win be from one
of these last named towns to Grove,
Oklahoma. The third day on the
third division will be from Grove to
Vinita with Alton to be considered as
now rival in the field to Vinita. The
route will be settled this week and If
it should go to Alton the White Way
will be routed later on to Joplin and
the roads out of Oklahoma and Kan
sas win be connected to the White
Way at Alton or such points as may
be most convenient to them.
Mr.. Harvey is pleased with yester-
days work and says that it is the
best day in the organization thus far.
"At the meeting at Hiwassee," said
Mr.. Harvey, yesterday morning at 10
o'clock, / said to them that they were
a village of about 300 with one bank
with capitol of $4,000 and wanted
to make the money assessment as
light as possible and named five hun
dred dollars as the amount. We pro-
'ceeded with other details, all the road
captains were selected, all agreed to
move back their fences and all agreed
to work on the road the one day as
much as necessary before the day to
put each section in readiness for the
road machinery on the morning OF
the big day. They then appointed
their committee of three to receive
and handle the money subscriptions
Thus far this meeting was in the main
a repetition Of others. And then
came the unusual that will cause
Hiwassee to be ever remembered
gratefully in the history of the White
Way It was their reply to the prop
osition to raise $500 in money. They
said that had under estimated
Hiwassee, that l was too modest, that
they wanted to see this turnpike com.
pleted first class; and that $500 addi-
tional to the free labor was not en-.
ough to do Hiwassee's part of those
things requiring money. and one man
Mr.. J. H. Keith, wealthy farmer liv,
ing south of Hiwassee said he would
give $500 himself, and $1,000 was in
sight in little while Mr.. Keith went
with me to the Centerton meeting, al
2 O'Clock, and there at big meeting
in the school house there was a repeti
ton of the Hiwassee meeting till we
got to the money question and then
Centerton said that they would do as
well as Hiwassee and $50 was i'm
mediately subscribed by seven men
with assurances that the committee
would get that up in few days to
s1,5O0 or $4,000. One man gave $50

Oklahoma City, Mar. 6.-Oklahoma
City is in the throes of a strike, which
has completely tied up street car serv-
ice on all lines of the city and upon

urban lines Two hundred and forty
motor motormen and conductors em-
|ployed by the Oklahoma Street Rail-

ling conducted to the car barns by the

The company has not ventured to
take single car out since. The gen.
Ieral public is compelled to walk or
Iride in some other kind of conveyance.
This is the first street car strike in.
the history of the city and the first
lstrike of any Importance in any line
of industry here.
Just preceding the hour Of 10 o'clock
| 1000 union men marched from labor
hall to the terminal building of the
street car company and as the cars
came in, the motormen and conductors
were asked to quit A number at first
refused, but in every instance the troll
Hey ropes were cut and the motormen
and conductors were pulled from the
cars by strikers and strike sympathiz-
ers. No violence was offered, but the
streets were blockaded BY thousands
of union men and on-lookers. The
motormen on incoming cars display
ed the sign of car barn. and took
their cars in without interference by
the other union men.
The strike was precipitated by the
action Of the street car employees in
secretly forming local branch Of the
car mems national union. As soon as
the names of the men who joined the
union were learned, they were dis
charged, the company taking the posi-
tion that it could not afford to recog-
nize the union in the face of its record
in other parts of the country.

The Carisa was one OF the prominent

The above statement was made to The
