Of Probate Albert D. Park of Oxford

Office Created to Prevent Con

ANNUAL, APPROPRIATION
ORDINANCE INTRODUCED

Bismarck took another step city
ward last evening with the introduc.
ton by Fire and Police Commissioner
Bertsch of comprehensive ordinance
creating the Office of building inspect
or, clearly defining and extending the
city's fire limits, and establishing
standards of construction which will
make for greater protection against
fire.
The ordinance embraces ga sections,
is very carefully drawn, and upon its
passage the building inspector to be
appointed will have almost unlimited
power to prevent the erection of new
buildings or the repair OF old ones
within the fire limits which do not
meet with the strict provisions of this
measure.
After the passage of this ordinance
no building may be erected in Bis
marck until a permit has been pro-
cured from the building inspector.
The construction Of all buildings shall
be of certain standard, approved by
the national hoard of underwriters and
other competent authorities, and no
building operations of any kind shall
be carried on without a permit and
the approval Of plans by the building
inspector.
Safeguards are thrown around
theatres and other public buildings,
and precautions are taken which have
aproven good in the experience Of 9th
err cities. Police Magistrate Bleckreid
ruled yesterday that Bismarck has no
fire ordinance. Upon the passage of
Commissioner Bertsch's ordinance, the
capital city will have a very real and
very positive one.

RESOLUTIONS ADOPTED BY A. F. OF CATHOLIC SOCIETIES One Protests Against the Irreligious
 Tyranny in Mexico.

Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 2s.-A reso- lution protesting against the 'irrelig- ious tyranny masquerading under the name of democratic government in States withhold any loan until such iniquitous laws are repealed and re- Hgion made free" was adopted here late today by the convention of the American Federation of Catholic So- Icieties.
 Reso1u tions "acclaiming'' the peace proposal of Pope Benedict and reaf- firming the loyalty of the Catholics of the United States were adopted. The convention also adopted a resolution providing for the appointment of a committee of five to represent the federation in cooperating with the National Catholic War Council being formed for the purpose of assisting the government in carrying on the war against Germany.
 Other resolutions adopted provide for a federation fund of s100,0O0 for organization and social and moral pro paganda work; the establishment of Catholic night schools for aliens and the suppression of plays, motion pie lures and literature tending to belittle marriage. Fair play and justice to ne groes also was urged.
 The federation adopted the so-call- ed diocesan plan. which enrOlls the members by diocese instead of by county and state and brings into az ties. The plan provides for changing the name of the federation to the Ca tholic Federation of the United States. A committee composed of Bishop Jo- seph Bush. St. Cloud. Minn.: the Rev. John F. Brook, Corey. Pa; Benedict Elder. Louisville, Ky; William Hek- enkamp, Juincy. Ills, and Anthony Matre Chicago, was appointed to work out the details of the reorgani zation plan.
 The following were appointed committee to corporate with the Ma tiona1 War Council:
 Monsignor M. J. Splaine, Boston: Monsignor J. P. O'Connell. Toledo, O.: John J. Hines, Buffalo, N. Y; Charles L Denechand, New Orleans. and John Whalen, New York.
