ARTICLE XIII.
NEW COUNTIES.

SECTION 1. The General Assembly may provide, by law,
for organizing new counties, locating and removing county
seats, and changing county lines; but no new county shall be
organized without the consent of the majority of the legal
voters residing within the limits proposed to be formed into
said new county; and whenever a new county shall be pro-
posed to be formed out of portions of two or more counties,
the consent of a majority of the legal voters of such part of
each of said counties, respectively, shall be required; nor
shall the lines of any county be changed without the con-
sent of a majority of the legal voters residing within the
district, which, under said proposed change, would form a
part of a county different from that to which it belonged
prior to said change, and no new county shall contain less.
