PUBLISHING sLACKER LISTS.

The war department has given out for publication lists
which is has compiled OF persons said to have been guilty
OF desertion from the army, evasion of the draft, or other
forms of stacking. Unfortunately these lists contain many
inaccuracies, and because OF this numerous newspapers
have declined to publish them.
1t Is probably next to impossible to insure perfect
accuracy in the compilation Of lists SO large, the informa-
ton being necessarily obtained from widely separated
quarters and much OF 1t being unavailable In any reliable
form. Because Of the dihtculty that has been found, and
presumably not through carelessness on the .partGof the
compiters, there have been published in the Stacker list
names OF persons: who are not guilty Of any onense; some
Of whom In fact, have served either in the army or. navy,
honorably and with Distinction, and who. iii some cases,
have suffered either wounds or death. It may be said that
persons whose names have been improperly published in
this manner may be rtshted by having. the facts made

COAL PRICES.

There Is considerable speculation just now as to the
ueu OF coal prices, and the subject Is one in which
most cNi7ens have a very acute interest. Coal prices
during the past year were abnormal and extortionate.
Who. u to blame for this condition We do not know, but
the TACT - that the Industrial plant and the private citi-
zen alike have been required to pay prices for coal far
beyond any that were justified by the actual situation
in the coal industry and far beyond prices warranted by
the general price situation throughout the country.
Coal prices to the consumer have been somewhat
reduced. but the reduction is a mere trine compared
with the reduction which has been brought about in al
most every other line OF industry. Food prices are very
much lower proportionately than coal prices; clothing
prices are lower; lumber prices are lower; and the
same thing could be said of prices in a dozen different
departments But on the present basis the coal con-
sumner must pay a price closely approximating that
which he paid during the period Of highest price levels,
and when coal prices had been boosted far beyond the
peak of nearly all other prices. There ought to be some
way of bringing coal prices down TO a reasonable fig
ure. What that way is some one ought to know, and
1t Is unquestionahly the business OF the federal govern
ment to see what is the matter with coal prices, and
rectlfy the very obvious wrongs that exist in them.

said, with a trace of irritability in his
tone, that the greater part Of my

The complaint was one which for
the moment left Mr.. Wadham speech
less. He was vaguely conscious tina,
an adequate reply existed, but it
eluded him. His son. who had adopt-
ed the attitude of being outside the
discussion, was engaged in an alb

gravity. If every one of your tenants
paid their full rent and brought it in
to this Office at the present moment.
W should still be unable to pay the
interest on the mortgages due next
month. without further advances
from the bank"
"These mortgages" the Marquis re-
marked thoughtfully, "are a nuis-
'ance."
So self-evident a fact seemed to
leave little room for comment or de-
NAL. The Marquis frowned q little
more severely and withdrew his fore
fingers from the desk.
Figures. I fear, only confuse me,'
he confessed, t"'but for the sake of
curiosity. what do my quartely rents
amount to?"
Between seven and eight thousand
pounds. according to deductions, your

interest upon the mortgages amounts
to perhaps a thousand pounds less
than that sum-. That thousand
pounds, l may be permitted to point
out to your lordship. is all that re-
mains for the carrying on Of your
