Syllabus

<p>Corporations—Foreign—Articles—Purposes—Authority to Do Business. A foreign corporation, whose articles designate trust or agency powers, is not entitled to file its articles with the secretary of state unless it is incorporated in compliance with Laws of 1903, p. 367, regulating the incorporation of such trust companies in this state; since, Const, art. 12, § 7, and Bal. Code, § 4291, provide that foreign corporations shall not be permitted to do business in this state on more favorable conditions than are prescribed by law for similar domestic corporations; and the disavowal of the foreign corporation to do a trust or agency business cannot affect the matter, as there is no method of mating the same a matter of record or giving notice thereof.</p>
