The names of all those who have filed their sworn applications
to have their names printed on the official ballot as candidates shall
be posted by the city secretary in a conspicuous place at his office
for the inspection of the public for at least ten days before the
city secretary orders the ballots to be printed. All objections to
the regularity or validity of the application of any persons shall
be made within five days after such posting, by written notice filed
with the city secretary, setting forth the grounds of objections.
In case no such objection is filed within the time prescribed, the
regularity or validity of the application of no person whose name
is so posted shall be thereafter contested. The city secretary shall
preserve in his office for a period of two years all applications,
notice of objections and other related papers.
