TIME HAS EXPIRED.

Section SO, V. S. saysthat "certiti-
Gates of nomination to be filed with
town or village clerks snail be filed
not more than twenty days nor less
than twelve days before the day of ell
ection." The Public Acts of 1898,
Act No. 9, section !, amends section
SO V. S., 50 it reads "shalI be filed
not more than thirty nor less than
fifteen bays before the day of election"
The charter of Barre city does not
mention this matter so it would seem
that midnight Of Monday Feb. 1s,
closed the time for filing nominations
for city officers, especially as the laws
passed last session say nothing about
the matter.
