great naval drama, Remember the
Maine, was presented at the opera
house to rather small but highly ap.
preci2ttve audience. The play is full
of dramatic action and scenic effect
and with increased staging capacity
would be wonderfully attractive. The
company is an uncOmmonly strong
one, exhibiting but one weakness, that
in the character of Patrick Mullens, a
minor part. John Carol gave an ex-
cellent impersonation of General Fitz-
hugh Lee and Captain Sigsbee was
well represented by Joseph Wickers.
The American girl, by Miss Ella Will
son. the Cuban refugee, by Miss Sylvia
Lynden and the Spanish Senorita by
Josephine Mills were each we'll done,
the latter being particularly heavy
part. There are good hits and inter
esting situations in repletion, and the
patriotism of a responsive audience is
worked up to high pitch. The trans
formation scene, 1--WE Have Remem,
bered the Maine" is beyond descrip,
tiCn. This company will visit here
next season.

which awakens no enthusiasm in us.
The thought must breathe and the
word must burn before it shall End
Judgement and kindle the FIRE in the
heart of another. OF course we can
not expect tina: the tide will never ebb.
The wind goes down, and we suddenly
find ourselves becalmed. The sails flap
idly and we are left Juggling at the oars.
The old enthusiasm has fled. We Won
der where all the aspirations which but
yesterday thrilled us are gone. We go
grieVing, desolate and sad. The bright
fresh morning yields to the dull, hot,
afternoon of life. How dreadful, how
monotonous everything appears! Life
seems to have resolved into a success
sion of cares. The season of depres-
sion has succeeded that of joy.
Does anyone before me dare say he
has not had this trying experience?
No: all have had 1t. Even the most
heroic and enthusiastic have come to
such periods. The tide has ebbed and
left behind only the fat and oozing
sands. The stirring music of the com
ing years which ordinarily stimulates,
sounds distant and feeble. Rather
something seems to whisper
death is the end of life: All! why
Should life all labor be?''
Then again, did you ever attempt to
analyze the perfume of a beautiful
flower withou: losing that celestial
something which gave it its charm
Did you not find by pressing it too
closely, by seeking to inhale its fra
grance to long, that its very perfume is
turned to bitterness? In these inter
walls of depression, when the beautiful
light which has flooded the horizon has
died away, again we ask, what shall we
do? Will God not enable US to fill gu,
the incOmpleteness of our lives, which
haunts us evermore? Is He so strong
and will He not remove the bars OF
circumstance that surround us? AL
if He only would! Surely we need moi
despair. The sunrise never failed VI
yet. In such an hour let us "fall bach
on the steadfast resolve of a happier
time" Think of the hours of illumin,
alton when vision was clear. TIT
dawn will come.
This, then, is the great secret of sue,
cess. One must have enthusiasm TO
his work, Let us keep ascending tn,
ladder of fame round by round, one a
time, going forth to meet the shad
owy future without fear and with
noble heart.

The Week.

BY far the best assurance of good
business in the future is found in the
general rise of wages. Traders and
manufacturers can sell only when
wage earners can buy, and in proper
tion to their buying power. The gen.
eral advance in earnings of cotton mill
operatives, in most cases 10 per cent,
of iron and steel workers generally 10
per cent, and tin plate and sheet work
ers from 5 to 10 per cent, and in coal
miners, in some large districts, about
as much, has set pace which most es-
Establishments will, follow which have
reduced wages in past years of depres-
sion. Those who fail to comprehend
what such change may mean have
only to consider that tenth increase
in the wages of all labor would put
into the markets new buying demand,
in amount about three. quarters of the
entire value of exports to all countries.
The volume of business shows no sign
of decrease, and for the first full week
Of March has been about SIT per cent
greater than in the same week of last
year and COS per cent greater than in
1892. ..

yoIer, sound; but there is no fire and
fence no steam. They have no enthu-
asm themselves and hence no power
o kindle 1t in others. Life, seemingly,
S far as they are concerned, is a pitt
ul failure-barren of results.
What can be more beautiful and in

SENATOR LaMoure's bill No. l is short,
but very pointed. 1t simply provides
that Section 2755 of the Revised Codes
relating to the term of residence of APP
plicants for divorce in this state shall
read as follows:
"a divorce must not be granted unless
the plaintiff has in good faith been a
resident OF the state for twelve months
next preceding the commencement of
the action and is a citizen of the United
States or has declared his intention to
become SUCH"
The bill changes the required resi-
dence of applicants for divorce from the
present term, three months, to one year
and the meat of it lies in the provision
that applicants for divorce must be resi-
dents of the United States. 1t has come
to the attention of Senator LaMoure
that residents of other countries, for
cigners, come to the United States and
to North Dakota to take advantage of
the liberal divorce laws and the short
term of residence, and he believes, no
doubt, that applicants for divorce should
at least be residents of the United
States.

Mortified of the university bought up
all the purchasable land in the vicinity
OF the great gulch on Tongue river,
eight miles northeast of.Milton, amount
ing to 1000 acres or more for the purpose,
ostensibly, of starting a stock ranch.
Later the rumor was set afoot that a val
liable deposit of hydraulic cement clay,
inexhaustible in quantity, had been dis
covered there, and several carloads of it
were taken east Tor a thorough examin1
alton. 1t is also stated that the visit of
President Mortified in England may
have had something to do with cnlisting
capital for the working of the clay beds,
and from the report of the trustees, it
appears that there is likely to follow an
enterprise of more than usual magnitude
and interest to North Dakota.

No doubt some ambitious legislato,

No doubt some ambitious legislator
seeking fame with his constituency and
glory as a savior of the states revenues
will essay this winter the passage of a
law to deprive Hon. w. W. Barrett. state
commissioner of irrigation and forestry,
of his privileges and emoluments as such
officer. This attempt has been made
before and it is craven in the history of
the state that Mr.. Barrett, single handed
and alone, has detied the efforts of many
legislatures and brought the plans of his
opponents to naught. The TRIBUNE has
noted the presence Of Mr.. Barrett in the
city and although seventy-six years of
age a few days ago-the commissioner is
as ever vigorous of voice and mentality
and seems ready for whatever on
slaught may be made upon his office.
