	Michigan State Capitol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The first state capitol was located in Detroit, the original capital of Michigan, and was relocated to Lansing in 1847, due to the need to develop the western portions of the state and for easy defense from British troops stationed in Windsor, Ontario.
		The first building to serve as the state capitol was built in 1832 to serve as the "territorial courthouse." This brick structure was one of the earliest Greek revival buildings in Michigan, with a portico of Ionic columns and a central tower of 140 feet (42 m).
		On March 31, 1871, a bill was adopted "for the erection of a new state capitol, and a building for the temporary use of the state officers." The new capitol was to cost $1.2 million, to be raised by a six-year state income tax.

	The Book of the Fair : Chapter the Twenty-Third: State Exhibits (Text)
		To the wealth of the state as a producer of wheat further attention is called by a large painting from the brush of Carl Gutherz, representing a farm in the Red River valley.
		Turning to the exhibits of the Pacific states may first be mentioned those of California, which in her own, as in the main departments of the Fair, is represented as befits this enterprising and ambitious commonwealth of the furthest west.
		That the state appears to such advantage is due in part to the liberal appropriation of her legislature, largely increased by the subscriptions of counties and individuals, and amounting in all to $750,000.

		Founded in 1777, San Jose was the first incorporated city in the state and the county seat of Santa Clara County.

	USA-Presidents.Info - Martin Van Buren Third State of the Union Address
		In the few instances in which they were aided by citizens of the United States the acts of these misguided men were not only in direct contravention of the laws and well-known wishes of their own Government, but met with the decided disapprobation of the people of the United States.
		The internal state of Spain has sensibly improved, and a well-grounded hope exists that the return of peace will restore to the people of that country their former prosperity and enable the Government to fulfill all its obligations at home and abroad.
		Notwithstanding the high state of their discipline and excellent police, the evils resulting to the service from the deficiency of company officers were very apparent, and I recommend that the staff officers be permanently separated from the line.

		In the midst of the national slowdown in growth, one-half of the States grew at least as fast in the third quarter as in the second.
		The widespread slowdown in transfer payments was partly attributable to a substantial deceleration in State unemployment insurance benefits, as the unemployment rate dipped to 5.7 percent in the third quarter from 5.9 percent in the second.
		Except for Vermont, these States had increases in extended benefits, which are available to workers who have exhausted regular unemployment insurance benefits during periods of high unemployment.

	USA-Presidents.Info - Gerald Ford Third State of the Union Address
		For my part I pray the third century we are beginning will bring to all Americans, our children and their children's children, a greater measure of individual equality, opportunity, and justice, a greater abundance of spiritual and material blessings, and a higher quality of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.
		The state of the Union is a measurement of the many elements of which it is composed--a political union of diverse States, an economic union of varying interests, an intellectual union of common convictions, and a moral union of immutable ideals.
		May our third century be illuminated by liberty and blessed with brotherhood, so that we and all who come after us may be the humble servants of thy peace.

	USA: Jackson SoN 1831
		Of the claims upon England it is unnecessary to speak further than to say that the state of things to which their prosecution and denial gave rise has been succeeded by arrangements productive of mutual good feeling and amicable relations between the two countries, which it is hoped will not be interrupted.
		Independently of the difficulty of inducing the representatives of distant States to turn their attention to projects of laws which are not of the highest interest to their constituents, they are not individually, nor in Congress collectively, well qualified to legislate over the local concerns of this District.
		Governed by the laws of the States whence they were severed, the two shores of the Potomac within the 10 miles square have different penal codes -- not the present codes of Virginia and Maryland, but such as existed in those States at the time of the cession to the United States.

	Courtney: Tocqueville's Third State of Mind
		To sum up, Tocqueville's theory of three states of intellect has taught us (1) that dogmatic beliefs will almost certainly be called into question and (2) that once doubt has been introduced, people are likely to cling to a diminished version of their original position unless something clearly more convincing is available.
		This second state leads to "a narrow and unenlightened selfishness" for the people "are emancipated from prejudice without having acknowledged the empire of reason" (I:242-3).
		This third state is more praiseworthy because the affirming dynamism shared with the first state is coupled with rational insight capable of responding to problems and dealing with doubts.

	JS Online: State was third in turnout
		The only two states that exceeded Wisconsin's turnout of 66% of voting age adults were Minnesota (68.7%) and Maine (66.7%).
		The explanation for that probably lies in the state's "battleground" status, which brought unprecedented attention in the form of campaign ads, candidate visits and media coverage.
		The figures also show that whether a state is contested or not remains a much smaller factor in turnout than its political culture and traditions.
