DON'T NEED JUSTICE
OF THE PEACE OR
MINISTER
Contract Marriage Just as
Good in New Mexico, Says
Assistant Attorney General
in Interesting Opinion.

Santa Re. n. NJ, Feb. 24-In re-
Spouse to anxious Inquiries from
some couples at Corona, y. NJ. who
they had not been legally join
ed In wedlock after finding hat the
justice Of the peace who married
them was no justice OF the peace, the
assistant attorney general has pro-
mulgated an opinion 10 the effect
that you can be safely and solidly
and permanently married In New
Mexico whether or not you have tho
services of "a minister or a legally
qualified magistrate. The opinion
follows:
SAINTS Fe. y. NJ. Feb. 81. 1914.
Mr.. j. NJ. Atkinson. Corona, y. NJ.
Dear Sir:--i am Ia receipt Of your
letter OF the 18th inst. In which you
inquire as To the legality OF a cere-
mony performed by n person claim
ing to be a justice of the peace. but
who. subsequent To his reelection as
such justice failed to execute "A bond
ne required by law.
Section 1414 OF the Compiled Laws
OF 1897 makes Il lawful to all intents
and purposes, FOR those who may 40
desire" 10 solemnize the contract OF
matrimony by means OF any ordain-
ed clergyman. or by means OF any
civil magistrate. Section i4ib OF the
same compilation defines marriage as
"a civil contract, for which the con-
sent Of the contracting parties. capa-
bile In law OF contracting. In essential.
From the foregoing. you will see that
II IL not absolutely essential that a
and woman. who desire 10 enter
into a marriage contract. should have
the same solemnized by "A minister
of the gospel or a justice Of the peace
but those who may so desire" can
employ the services OF n clergyman
or civil magistrate.
The fact hat the justice OF the
peace 10 whom you refer. at the time
of the performance by him OF a mar
riage ceremony. had failed To file his
bond 80 required by law. will IN no
way vitlate the marriage contract or
