Comprehensive History

ORGANIZED. Wooster Board of Trade

June 10, 1893: Wooster Board of Trade, CITIZEN INTERESTED. Their Rousing Meeting Last Night. Earnest. Harmonious Action. A Simple. Effective Organization, Admitting Every One With Wooster's Welfare at Heart-- Officers Elected and At Work.

Pursuant to a call by Mayor Jeffries, published in the city papers, an unexpectedly large number of citizen met at Council Chamber last evening to organize the Board of Trade of Wooster.

The meeting was called to order by Mayor Jeffries, who was chosen to president. W. C. Yost was chosen secretary of the evening.

The committee appointed at the preliminary meeting on devising a plan of organization and consisting of Col. C. V. Hand, W. O. Bebee, T. C. Raynolds, W. D. Tyler and Daniek Funck, reported constitution and by-laws for the government of the Board of Trade, which was read and on motion adopted with some minor but excellent changes, which were accepted as soon as suggested.

Then followed the enrollment of members and signing of the constitution. Almost every man present enlisted in the cause of Wooster's welfare, with word from many who were detained in different ways that they would take hold heartily. The "daddy dollars" for dues chinked merrily upon the table, and on motion Mayor Jeffries was elected treasurer pro tem without bond to handle these funds.

When the election of officers was reached, a motion prevailed for the appointment of a committee to select officers and directors, but they reported after consultation it would be better to have the members present vote their choice direct. This was done with the following result. President, Col. C. V. Hard; Vice Presidents, S. B. Husselman, T. C. Raynolds; Treasurer, Dr. W. W. Firestone; Secretary, to be selected by the Executive Committee.

In voting for the six directors, it was resolved that each member should put six names on his ballot of those suggested or other persons with a majority vote required to elect, the two next two years, and the other two one year. Hon. Louis P. Ohliger and Harry McClarran were chosen for three years. J. R. Zimmerman and W. D. Tyler, for two years; George J. Schwartz and W. B. Bryson for one year.

This completed the organization, so far as terms of the constitution required, and it was agreed that the new Executive Committee, consisting of the officers and directors, should meet at 4 o'clock in City Clerk Adams' in the City Hall.

President Hard on taking the chair was called upon for a speech, but said that his only speech would be to get right to business. The selection of standing committees, as provided in the constitution, he thought should wait until the membership has been increased, that being the first duty of all.

On motion, a committee consisting of H. B. Odenkirk, David Nice and George J. Schwartz was named to solicit additional membership among the business men and citizens generally. Those enrolled last night were as follows: James Mullins; J. B. Taylor; Geo J. Schwartz; C. A. McDonald; J. R. Zimmerman; C. V. Hand; L. P. Ohliger; J. F. Barrett; Julian Jeffries; W. D. McClure; Geo. E. Kline; E. Chatelain; S. B. Husselman T. O. Raynolds; B. J. Hartman; H. Burrowes; E. W. Newkirk; C. C. Adam; R. J. Sweeney; H. McClarran; John S. Elliott; A. Cunningham; G. P. Emrich; Elmer Funk; W. W. Firestone; H. B. Odenkirk; John Thompson; Wm. C. Yost; Lemmuel Jeffries; J. E. Barrett; W. B. Bryson; A. W. Shearer; Jacob Palmer; J. T. Keister.

Motion prevailed instructing the Finance Committee of the Board of Trade when formed to communicate with John B. Taylor, as treasurer of the former trade organization now defunct, about the funds he now has belonging thereto, about $80, that money having been intended for the purposed the present organization will undertake. Adjourned.

THE CONSTITUTION - The constitution as prepared is modeled upon those of the Massillon and Canton Boards of Trade, but shortened and simplified from either of them, while the membership fee and for annual dues instead of $5 at only $1 for Wooster, so that no man need plead that as any excuse for keeping out of this movement for the general good. The most important article is the 1st on Name and Objects as follows.

"This association shall be known as the Board of Trade of Wooster, and its object is to collect, preserve and circulate valuable and useful information relating to the business of Wooster, and especially the facts relating to its manufacturing and mercantile interests, to improve our transportation facilities, and in all ways promote the mercantile, manufacturing, commercial and other interests of this city."

The following articles provide for president, vice president and treasurer, and sis directors (two of them elected annually for three years each) to constitute the executive committee, these to include also the secretary, to be elected by the committee, which is the management. The annual meeting is to be on the first Thursday of June each year. The secretary is to have charge of the collection and promulgation of statistics and of correspondence, under the executive committee and in connection with the several standing or special committees. The standing committees are expected to include all members, new members being assigned to them upon election, and are to make annual reports upon their respective departments and special suggestions and reports whenever needed. They are as follows:

  • Public Improvements
  • Railroads and Transportation
  • New Enterprises and Industries
  • Finance
  • Local Mercantile Interests
  • Real Estate
  • Statistics
  • Legislation
  • Produce and Grain
  • Manufacturers
  • Membership
  • Lumber and Coal
  • Taxation
  • Streets and Pavements

The membership is open to all persons of good character. It is provided that all statistics furnished shall be protected as confidential. Of course the routine provisions as to officers' duties, manner of making amendments, etc. are about the usual thing in such cases. [1]

MEET TOMORROW NIGHT - SPECIAL SESSION. WOOSTER BOARD OF TRADE. Every Member or Citizen Willing to Help Asked to Attend to Consider Some Very Important Matters

NOTICE OF MEETING. I am directed to call a meeting of the Board of Trade to be held in City Council Chamber on Wednesday evening of this week to consider some very important matters. It is earnestly desired that every member will be present, and as many new members as can be secured by that time. It is the intention to create one or two new, important committees, and discuss some propositions of interest to the city. C. C. Adams, Sec'y

The officers and directors of "The Board of Trade of Wooster" met in the City Clerk's office last Tuesday to complete its organization and appoint its standing committees. The officers and directors constitute the Executive Committee and are as follows:

STANDING COMMITTEES:

SPECIAL NOTICE Additional members as enrolled will be added to the Committees from time to time, so that every man may have a chance to work for Wooster. [2]

Wooster Board of Trade Last Night: Creamery Question Acted on Favorably-- a Page of Experience-- Other Industries in View-- To Join the State Chamber of Commerce

  • Wooster Board of Trade Last Night [3]

There was a good attendance at the Wooster Board of Trade last evening, when the special meeting was called to order by the president, Col. C. V. Hard. The question of a full creamery in Wooster was the first item taken up, over a third of the needed stock having already been subscribed by a few men quietly, and further action having been delayed until the business could be brought before the Board. In response to calls, John Wilhelm explained the possibilities for profit in connection with the number of farmers during the day had expressed their desire to him to lend a hand in the matter, so that he had no doubt that the 250 cows required as a minimum for a milk supply could easily be secured. Harry McClarran gave recent experiences in the grocery trade in Wooster, showing both farmers and dealers would be better off if all the milk made into butter in Wayne county were handled through creameries. A motion by W. D. Tyler was adopted requesting the chairman to co-operate with Mr. Wilhelm and Capt. R. E. Eddy in a canvass upon the question, and the president designated Messrs. Tyler and McClarran and Capt. W. O. Beebe as such committee.

A new industry that seeks a location in Wooster was considered at some length and with a favorable disposition so far as the info at hand would warrant, but no action was taken upon it, as it was stated that a formal proposition would be presented before long, when the business would come up in tangible shape. It would probably desire a down-town location. Another enterprise was also mentioned as under consideration, but as the matter is not yet advanced sufficiently to be make public, no more than this suggestion in regard to it was presented, leaving its consideration for a future meeting.

J. R. Zimmerman and W. D. Tyler who were at Columbus with Hon L. P. Ohliger, to represent the Wooster Board of Trade at the meeting of the Ohio Chamber of Commerce, were called upon to report, and Mr. Z. made an interesting statement. He said that the principal business considered was the Mergenthaler tax inquisition law, which was condemned vigorously by resolutions that requested the Legislature to repeal the law at once as a great damage to the business and industrial interests of the State. The expense of collections under the law, the cost being 34 per cent of all receipts under it, was mentioned as one defect of the law, while its premium upon dishonesty in officials is a danger and its prying into private business and double taxation are driving great interests out of the State. As Wooster has not yet joined the State Chamber of Commerce her representatives were not entitled to a vote, participating only by courtesy, but they found it desirable for this city to be connected with the other cities of Ohio in the new organization, and filed an application for membership. This action was, upon motion, ratified and the president and secretary were requested to take such action to complete the membership as may be needed. As the entrance fee to the State board is $25 to secure its full privilege's. the treasurer, Dr. W. W. Firestone, was asked as to the condition of the Board's finances. His statement showed money enough to meet all engagements, as soon as some who signed the roll last year, but did not pay their dollar at the time, should pay their annual dues for the current year. Besides, there are many business men in Wooster who ought to be members, yet have failed thus far to lend a hand in this enterprise, already so fruitful for the general good. The secretary, C. C. Adams, was instructed to collect all delinquent dues. On motion, adjourned subject to call.

Wooster Board of Trade Meeting

  • Wednesday, September 1894: About 25 members of the Board of Trade attended the special meeting held in the Mayor's office last night. The meeting was called to select delegates to the meeting of the State Board of Commerce, a member of the Executive Committee of the State Board of Commerce and a special committee to confer with the County Commissioners in the matter of securing a new bridge of proper construction over Christmas Run. President C. V. Hard presided. The members selected to serve are as follows:

Delegates to meeting of State Board of Commerce-- C. V. Hard, J. R. Zimmerman, W. J. Mullins.

Member of State Board of Commerce Executive Committee-- L. P. Ohliger

Special Committee to confer with County Commissioners on securing a new bridge over Christmas Run on W. Liberty street-- J. R. Zimmerman, Jacob Frick, Jas. Mullins, Harry McClarran, W. W. Firestone, W. D. Tyler, C. F. Barrett, E. K. Geiselman, David {{Surname|Nice} and Geo J. Schwartz.

Tuesday, August 15, 1895, Ought to Be Made a Most Memorable Day for Wooster and Wayne County

  • Tuesday, August 15, 1895, ought to be made a most memorable day for Wooster and Wayne county, particularly since a happy co-incidence has fixed that date for the beginning of the reunion in this city of the Sherman Brigade. For a far greater event is commorated on that self same day to wit, the one hundredth anniversary of the organization of Wayne county, then a part of the Northwest territory and long before its five great States were so much as though of. During the present week Defiance, Ohio, has show how great a celebration a city of Wooster's size can accomplish by going about it in the right way. Defiance honored the same man, General Anthony Wayne, who name honors our county and what Defiance did, Wooster can do, and in the same way get up a celebration that for importance and magnitude will be noted throughout the nation as that has been. To properly organize the city and county for such a celebration, the work ought to begin without delay, and the Wooster Board of Trade will prove its value by taking up the matter at once, and pushing the work in both city and county, for this concerns all of Wayne county. To begin with, Senator John Sherman should be secured at once as the speaker for the occasion, both because the boys of his brigade will be here and especially because he has been longer identified with this section as a public servant than any other man. Let Wooster go to work for its greatest, most memorable day. [4]

Great Things are Dreamed By Wooster Board of Trade: Banquet Thursday Evening, Was One of the Notable Events of Local History, and Wooster Enthusiasm is Now Rampant. Great Things Expected

  • Great Things are Dreamed By Wooster Board of Trade: Banquet Thursday Evening, Was One of the Notable Events of Local History, and Wooster Enthusiasm is Now Rampant. Great Things Expected [6]

Wooster enthusiasm has never been more rampant than it has since the board of trade banquet of Thursday evening. The man who would have the audacity to ask "What the matter with Wooster?" following the burst of enthusiasm for the old town, would be slapped on the back and assured that there's nothing the matter, the old town's coming, some.

Everybody is now for Wooster, all over, and the awakening of enthusiasm was like a good old Methodist revival, where everybody says amen and means it, too.

The banquet was attended by about 200 citizens, and into every citizen who did not have it already was born the boosting spirit. Everything connected with the banquet was all right from start to finish. The Eagles' hall, which the Eagles had so magnanimously given for the occasion, showed up beautifully. The repast was prepared under the direction of H. H. Zeigler, of the American house, and it was faultlessly served as follows:

MENU: Olives, Pickles, Celery, Young Onions, Hot Veal Loaf, Cold Sliced Ham, Potato Salad, June Peas, Strawberries and Cream, Bread and Butter Sandwiches, Vanilla Ice Cream, Fruit, Coffee, Cigars.

PROGRAM: Walter D. Foss, Toastmaster; Music, Orchestra; Duet, Miss Rockey and Mr. Hart; Music, Orchestra; Quartet, Philmel Quartet; Music, Orchestra

BANQUET: Remarks, Walter D. Foss, Pres.; Address, Hon. W. S. Kerr, Ex-Congressman, Mansfield, Ohio; Music, Orchestra; Miscellaneous Talks Limited to Five Minutes

THE MUSIC: The music was simply fine, and consisted of one series of sweet strains after another. Young's orchestra was at its test, and the selections were encored again and again, and the young men were heartily applauded, as they ____ down the line of tables for their suppers. The Philome quartet made a pronounced hit, and was also heartily encored. The duet by Miss Rockey and Mr. Hart was one of the best things of the evening, and the two also were given a royal encore. Altogether the music and singing and feast were but fitting forerunners for the big feast that followed, and after the cigars were lit. President Walter D. Foss, as toastmaster, called the meeting to order. Mr. Foss spoke in a happy vein. as follows:

EVERYONE SHOULD BOOST

"It is very gratifying to me," he said, "to see so many present tonight, and this gathering means much to the prosperity of Wooster. I doubt if ever before in the history of our city were there 200 earnest representative business and professional men thoroughly organized, with but one thought, brought together for a similar purpose and on an occasion like the present. Contemplate for a moment what great things two hundred men, working together harmoniously to the same end might accomplish if every one of us were as unselfishly devoted to the best interests of Wooster, as we are to our families, professions or business, willing to give our time and money, and by our influence and conversation endeavor to induce other citizen to follow our lead.

"We have accomplished great things in the past, our organization was a factor six years ago when the University on the hill was destroyed by fire. Our prompt action enthused Dr. Holden, and the Board of Trade raised over forty-three thousand dollars with-in sixty days, and there arose from the ashes an institution of which we are all justly proud, and she stands today second to non in Ohio-- barring perhaps Ohio State University at Columbus. Two months later we raised over twenty thousand dollars for the Wooster Glass Co. I speak this in a subdued tone of voice, mentioning these two instances merely to remind you of our possibilities. Of course we fall down once in awhile, mistakes may occur occasionally in the best of regulated families. We are not infallible, if we were we would not be here, we'd be up above the clouds, with a little harp and a pair of wings. But whether we get the harp or the wings, you can rest assured that as long as we ARE here, it will be our earnest endeavor to serve the best interests of Wooster to the limit of our ability.

"Our organization is alive-- very much alive the substantial building which greets the vision of the visitor to our city as he alights from his train at the Pennsylvania depot, gives ____ to the fact: and there are more good things to follow. Our committee on new industries is particularly conscious of its responsibility and does not propose to recommend any enterprise to the Board of Trade, and through this organization to our citizens, that will not bear thorough investigation, and this right and proper. Much work has been done which ahs not been made public, and there is much more to be done, and results to be accomplished if we all pull together. Let us through away our hammers, spot the fellow who is a knocker-- join the throng of ""Booster" here assembled, and we will be able to place Wooster where she rightfully belongs by reason of her attractiveness and beautiful surroundings, among the leading industrial cities of this great commonwealth."

KERR WAS ELOQUENT. Mr. Foss introduced W. S. Kerr the brilliant lawyer of Mansfield, who is also a fine orator. Mr. Kerr spoke of many happy memories of "Dear old Wooster," and of people who were dear to him in his profession. He spoke of McSweeney, as a product of Wooster, as one of the ablest lawyers that ever lived. Of Captain A. S. McClure and of the late M. L. Smyser he spoke in the most respectful terms.

"A problem to be solved, he said is where the people will go, now that the land is all occupied, and it may be that while the trend through the centuries has been westward, it will now turn about and be eastward. All our problems will produce leaders, such as Abraham, Mcsop, Wilherforce, Lincoln and Rooselvelt have been in their times."

Mr. Kerr spoke of the adversity of the last few months and said the people have been money mad, "We simply have been guilty of capitalizing our prosperity," he said. "The only way we can right ourselves is to build in our corporations till they reach their present capitalization in actual value." Mr. Kerr urged the much talked of publicaly as one of the things that will tend to do away with corporation abuses. "At Mansfield. he said "we didn't have as many at our board of trade banquet as you have here. I would advise that these neighboring towns send delegations to each other's banquets, and thus engender a fellow feeling.

ON TOWAN AND GOWN President L. E. Holden made one of the happiest speeches of the evening on 'The Town and Gown." The town people think we college people are not interested in them, and their success," he said. "but I assure you that we are . I have gone out in the highways and the byways and told the world about you loyal business men of Wooster, and of what you have done, and my story has
