law covering filing of petitions still reads I "The secretary of state and tho various county clerks end the city clerks of cities In which city officers are to be elected at the November election shall re ceive nominating petitions filed In accordance with provisions of thia act up to o'clock Stand ard time In the afternoon of the thirty first day before the?
