Title	Asa S. Bushnell 1898 State of the State Address
Subject	Ohio Government; Presidents and Politics; Governors
Place	Columbus (Ohio); Franklin County (Ohio); Springfield (Ohio); Clark County (Ohio)
Description	This 40 page booklet contains the text of Governor Asa S. Bushnellâ€™s annual message to the General Assembly of Ohio on Jan. 3, 1898. Governor of Ohio from 1896 to 1900, the Republican Bushnell (1834-1904) was also a business executive. He approached the emergence of the corporation during his administration with caution, endorsing the Valentine Anti-Trust Act, which barred price fixing and production limitation. Under Bushnell, the assembly also passed legislation improving social issues such as work hours and factory conditions. In addition, Bushnellâ€™s support of the Spanish-American War, which broke out in 1898 due to intervention in Cuba, led him to mobilize Ohio troops and resources immediately. In this message, Bushnell proudly commented that â€œOhio was the first State in the Union to put a volunteer regiment in the field.â€
