MAY PERMIT TRIAL MARRIAGES.
Bill Providinf for Five-Year Contract to Be
Presented to Assembly.

Bill Providing for Five-Year Contract to Be
Presented to Assembly.
A special dispatch to the St. Louis
Republic of the 18th inst, dated from
Des Moines, Iowa, says:
A trial-marriage law may be put
on the statute books of Iowa at this
session of the Legislature. A bill
providing for trial marriages will
be introduced before the Legislature
adjourns, if present plans do not fail,
and its enactment into a law will be
urged by some of the leading mem
bers of the body.
The bill, which is to be drawn and
probably introduced, will provide
that marriage contract may be en-
tered into for a period of five years,
and at the end of that time the cou.
pie may renew the contract if they
so desire.
Many members of the Legislature
are giving the question of trial mar
riage serious study, and the Legisla
ture has made an appropriation te
secure copy of the trial-marriagt
bill which was recently introduced in
the South Dakota Legislature.
