The apostrophes aren't part of the file name. 'ls' puts theme there because the name has spaces in it.
If you use ls -N (or ls --literal) it will show the name without the quotes (apostrophes), or -b (--escape) to show with "\" instead.
You can use quotes to access the file, or Escape the space with a backslash (\ ). On the desktop you should leave the quotes out.
