Flashbacks
January 19, 1894
Harvey Walker has finished digging a well on his claim and
is now putting up a three strand wire fence around it. His wheat field looks well and he thinks it
would do better to keep people from driving over it.
The trade coming from the Strip [Cherokee Strip] is
gratifying. Everyday the roads from that
section leading to this city are lively with teams passing to and fro.
We trust the road and bridge question will not be allowed to
sink out of public sight. Keep the ball
rolling until good avenues of travel are opened up to the Strip.
