(2) The Governor may order the proclamation published in a newspaper if he deems it proper under the circumstances and to the interest of the state. If he orders it published, he shall designate the paper or papers in which the publication shall be made and the number of times it shall be inserted. The account for such publication, with the approval of the Governor endorsed on it, shall be paid out of the State Treasury.
