History
NOTE: Former Section 197 required that any foreign corporation or association wishing to be granted a license to build, operate or lease any railroad in the state, where such railroad would be partially in Mississippi and partially in another state or states, must first become incorporated under the laws of Mississippi. The former section also pertained to a domestic railroad company consolidating with a foreign company. The repeal of Section 197 of Article 7 of the Constitution of 1890 was proposed by House Concurrent Resolution No. 6 (Laws, 1989, ch. 588), and upon ratification by the electorate on June 20, 1989, was deleted from the Constitution by proclamation of the Secretary of State on August 1, 1989.
