When the Texas Legislature passed the Law to Regulate Railroads in 1853, it required that the railroads operating in the state be headquartered in Texas. This requirement was later included as part of Article X of the Constitution of 1876. As a result the various railroad systems operating in Texas did so through subsidiary companies. Some, such as the Southern Pacific, Missouri Pacific, and the Santa Fe, retained the corporate names of Texas railroads they had acquired.
A: Texas was wholly Southern in its attitude towards slavery. Technically, slavery had been illegal under Mexican law. However, the Mexicans were never effective in preventing American slave owners from bringing slaves to Texas, and slave smuggling was a lucrative business along the Texas coast. In 1836, about 5000 African-American slaves lived in Texas. The Constitution of the Republic of Texas protected slavery, and the institution spread rapidly, especially in east Texas where the land was suited to the plantation system.
