[Superseded 1911; Stats. 1911,

This section related to Imperial County. It was added in 1909 (Stats. 1909, p. 772). At that time it was a county of the thirty-sixth and onehalf class. This section was amended in 1911 (Stats. 1911, p. 216), when Imperial County was changed to a county of the thirty-sixth class. At the same session at a later time another section numbered 4265 was passed relating to Imperial County (Stats. 1911, p. 1265). This section was amended in 1913 (Stats. 1913, p. 1196). Section 4265a has never been in terms repealed but it was probably superseded by the passage of the later section 4265, relating to Imperial County herein referred to. See ante, § 4265.
