	Bonus Law
		Banks in Ohio had to obtain a charter from the state legislature in order to operate, and they also had to pay taxes to the state.
		The state's partial ownership of these banks did not significantly improve the banking industry at this time, and Ohio's financial issues with the banking industry continued to plague the state in the next several years.
		One motivation for the Ohio legislature's decision to tax the National Bank of the United States in 1819 was the National Bank's lack of participation in the "Bonus Law." Unlike the state banks, the National Bank did not pay a tax or contribute a portion of its stock to the state treasury.

	State legislature - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A state legislature is the legislative body of the first-level political subdivision in a federal system, and as a generic term is used primarily to refer to a legislative body in one of the 50 states in the United States of America.
		Prior to United States Supreme Court decisions in the 1960s, the basis of representation in most state legislatures was modeled on that of the U.S. Congress: the members of the smaller chamber represented geography and members of the larger chamber represented population.
		Formerly, state legislatures appointed the U.S. Senators from their respective states until the ratification of the 17th Amendment in 1917 to require the direct election of Senators by a state's voters.

		Residents of the city mobilized to transfer political control of the lower Maumee from the Michigan Territory to the State of Ohio.
		Ohio Governor Robert Lucas responded by calling out the militia, and the Ohio state legislature organized most of the disputed area into a new county named after Lucas himself, with the present Ohio line as the northern boundary.

	Columbus (Ohio) - MSN Encarta
		In 1812 the Ohio State Legislature, after searching for a central location for the state capital, chose the present site of Columbus on the Scioto River opposite Franklinton, a thriving trade center since 1797.
		The Ohio and Erie Canal passed close to the city and a short feeder canal opened in 1831, connecting Columbus to both Lake Erie and the Ohio River.
		The city’s good fortune was largely because of the growth of state government, higher education, finance and insurance, and light industry.

		The Legislature is squeezing funding for hundreds of school districts in Ohio, including Cincinnati, Cleveland, Toledo and other cities where AFT members—teachers and other school staff—are making extraordinary efforts to educate Ohio’s children.
