A state officer may adopt and use a lithograph of his or her signature.
to proceed to assign numbers, and to do such other acts and

passed in 1901, requires that foreign corporations which have
heretofore complied with the act of 1901 shall also conform to
that of 1907 and pay the fees therein specified, before such cor-
porations shall be empowered to transact business within this
state.
