The article comments upon the divorce and marriages. In Chihuahua, across the Texas border from El Paso, it is now possible to obtain a divorce by mutual consent with only one day's notice, and without either of the parties being compelled to appear. However, these divorces are not granted to persons who have been married less than a year. The state of Chihuahua recognizes that divorce is often desirable and should be granted freely at the will of both parties, it is aware also that many a quarrel arising during the first months of marriage ends in the fondest of reconciliations in less than twenty-four hours.
