He who is not forever trying to do
better is certain soon to do worse.

The peril of every life is that it will
merely drift. The resolute soul is
obliged. by constant and conscious ex-
ercise of the will, to keep itself stead
lily face to face with its highest posi-
bilities. There is nothing easier than
TO fall into ruts, and to let circum-
stances mould ones life, instead of
making circumstances bend to ones
purpose. This hard business Of achiev-
ing a character. and measure of use
ful service, calls for ceaseless alert
ness and vigilance.
The leaders of men are the ones with
the ewes for the new and exceptional
opportunities.
''The good is ever the enemy of the
best says the proverb. The world is
prone to "let well enough alone -
whereas it is the men who have not
been content to let wei enough alone
who have made all the discoveries and
pioneered civilizations progress. The
temptation of the good is that they
viii cease to want to become better.

through the effort of Bishop Grace

through the effort of Bishop Grace
the appointment was Cancelled and he
was then nominated coadjutor bishop
of st. Paul and was consecrated Dec.
21, 1875. In 1883 he was made arch
bishop.
The following is sample of his
public utterances which have won for
him great esteem in this country.
1--WE have the right to view with no
slight Joy the future that opens up be-
fore America, for we are its sons who
give way to no one in our fidelity to
America. In the present war there
has not been a single battle fought
on land or sea in which our Catholic
soldiers and sailors have not exposed
their lives for America. And in the
greater number Of our states statistics
show that in proportion to their num-
Der the Catholics have furnished more
than their contignent for the defense
Of America. And for truth, the sin
certify of ones religious convictions
has never lessened the warmth of his
patriotism, nor the warmth Of his pat
riotism the sincerity of his religious
convictions" Sample of the public ut
terances of Archbishop ireland, which
have won for him the esteem and ad-
miratfon not only of the late President
Mckinley and President Roosevelt but
of all patriotic citizens Of the United
States.

Governor Burke is quoted by the
Minneapolis spokesman Of the party
as saying that If the republicans in the
legislature refuse to do his bidding
that the democrats will turn them out
Of office. In other words that a man
who in the same interview admitted
that when he was nominated he knew
so little about the state affairs that
he had to read up-post up, he said
knows more about the needs of the
people than hundred other men in
the state, any one of whom is the peer
of Burke in craftsmanship, and all
Of whom have given sufficient study to
the needs of the state that they did
not have to be told what was needed
for campaign purposes, as Governor
Burke confesses he did, and that a
mere tyro in craftsmanship will lead
a hundred men by the nose and COM
pei them to do his bidding or they will
be turned out by the followers of this
new political Martin Luther. Such
statement of political dictatorship
ought to make Alec. Mckenzie turn
green with envy.

On number of occasions Archbish-
op ireland has been called to Rome to
acquaint the Holy See with the exact
condition Of ecclesiastical affairs in
the United States. Two years ago
when the great war now raging be-
tween Church and State in France first
reached an acute stage, the st. Paul
prelate was summoned to Paris to dis
cuss the situation with the French
Archbishops and Bishops and to ex-
plain how the church in America
managed to remain on such friendly
terms with the government. In 1899
the Archbishop accepted an invitation
to deliver the principal address at the
Joan of Arc celebration in the old town
Of Orleans, France.
Like large majority of the Roman
Catholic prelates in America, espec-
tally the older ones, Archbishop Ire
land is a native of the Emerald Isle,
having been born in County Kilkenny,
Ireland, Sept. II, 1888. When he was
but babe in arms his parents re-
moved to st. Paul and his early edu-
cation was received in the cathedral
school here. He was sent to France
in 1853, and in September of that year,
when he was but Is, he entered the
Petit seminaire of Meximeux, finishing
the eight-year course there in four
years. He studied theology at thu,
Grand seminaire at Hyeres, returning
to st. Paul in 1861 and being ordained
priest when he was little more than
% years old. Upon the formation of
the Fifth Minnesota regiment young
Ireland was made it's chaplain and
served two years. Returning from the
field he was appointed rector of Ca
thedral parish, the central and largest
parish in st. Paul and continued in
that position until he was named as
coadjutor bishop.
In 1870 he went to Rome as the ac-
credited representative of Bishop

The copy of the certificate of cleo
ton issued to Judge Fisk of the SUI
preme court by the state board of
canvassers sets at rest one question
which has been much discussed
throughout the state The certificate,
which was published in the news COL
umns of the Evening Times yesterday
is reproduced herewith for the pur-
pose of illustration.
At an election held on the Sixth of
November, one thousand nine hundred
and six, Charles j. Fisk was elected
to the Office Of judge of the supreme
court of the State of North Dakota, for
a term of six years commencing on
the first Monday in December, one
thousand nine hundred and six.
1t will be seen from reading of the
certificate itself that the term to which
Judge Fisk was elected commences on
the first Monday of December. There
was SO much said during the campaign
about a non-partisan judiciary that l.
Is rather remarkable that in view of
the fact that there is now but one
Judge of the supreme court and the
further fact that the term of Judge
Fisk begins on the first Monday in
December that he should refuse to
qualify until a democrat can be ap-
pointed by Governor Burke.
