LAw NOT OpERATLTE HERE

Proposed repeal of the state law requiring a wait
of three days between application for and issuance OF
marriage license, is likely TO find considerable sup
port in Imperial county.
Whatever the merits Of the law in other parts of
the state there is question that it has little if any
effect in this political division Of the state Persons
who do desire wait the three days, but want I'M
mediate action have only to travel the few miles to the
Mexican border, a few to Yuma, to accomplish
their desires.
That this is done on large scale, is evident to ell
ley residents. The proof is in the figures in the coun
ty clerks office showing the extraordinary decrease in
marriages here since the law was imposed.
Not only is a considerable sum Of money being lost
to the county in license fees but justices Of the peace
and ministers have experienced a sharp decrease in
valley residents The proof is in the figures in the
business if should refer to marrying persons
What the legislators will do to the law remains TO
be SEEN If they left it to Imperial county there is
no doubt what the decision would be-
