4931.02 Acquisition or construction of other lines.

A telegraph company may construct, own, use, and maintain telegraph lines, whether described in its original articles of incorporation or not, and whether such lines are wholly within or partly beyond the limits of this state. It may join with another company or association in conducting, leasing, owning, using, or maintaining such lines, on terms agreed upon between the directors or managers of the respective companies. Such companies may own and hold any interest in such lines, or become lessees thereof on such terms as they agree upon, but no such company and the owner of rights of way shall contract for the exclusive use of such rights of way for telegraphic purposes.
