Messrs. F. c. H. schwertfeger and
H. C. Meyer continue the circulation of
the petition, asking the chamber OF
commerce officials to call special
meeting for the purpose of arranging
for q Merchants Day in connection
with the state fair next month, and
most of the business men are enthusi-
astically linking hold of the matter.
The success of the movement seems
assured.
An Intelllgencer reporter called on
President HullIhen Quarter. of the
chamber of commerce, yesterday after
noon, and sought an expression of his
views on the Merchants Day project.
Mr.. Quarter has Just returned from
business trip in the east, and was not
In touch with the movement but he un-
hesltatIngly announced himself in It's
favor, though at the same time not see
ing the necessity for meeting OF the
chamber. He believes that as much
can be accomplished by calling a meet
ing of the business people independent
ly of the chamber, and this course viii
likely be followed.
ITO bring the merchants from the
tri-state radius to Wheeling one day
during the fair. we must arrange at
fractions supplementary to what the
state fair association has already pro-
vided." said Mr.. ouarrler. "And what
is more attractive than match race
between two Of the greatest PAGERS or
trotters on the turf to-day? Nothing.
1 am sure. 1 remember we had Dexter
and another great trotter here some
years ago on the old fair grounds, and
the grounds were crowded. Now, II we
can arrange to secure Joe Patchen and
John R. Gentry or Star Pointer for n
match race here in connection with the
fair on Merchants Day, we would at
tract to Wheeling every merchant In
the tri-state district who could posi-
bly, get away from his place of busI-
ness, and in addition the fair assocIa-
ton would reap great harvest in the
tremendous boom that would be given
the attendance by special attraction
of such magnitude. Also, there should
be an evening entertainment Of some
kind For the last Merchants Day we
got 1892" at great expense, but as
most Of the companies will have started
on the road before the fair opens, we
should be able to get a good attraction
for the Wheeling Park Casino for con-
slderably lower figure"
1t is likely meeting will be called in
day or two to arrange for the Mer-
chants Day at the fair. The sooner
the better. for there should be ample
time in which to make up pro-
gramme of such attractIveness that
the merchants who buy from Wheeling
will be able to arrange to come here.
