The proverbial brass band of the street which squawks its inharmonous music under the windows of the tenement districts of the large cities always causes distress to the lisloners. To the player the music seems most harmonious; to others is discordant and out of tune. If your piano has not been tuned recently you arc in a similar position. Although your instrument seems good enough to you it is really out of tune and is not delivering to you and your friends the maximum amount of pleasure. You'll be surprised how a single tuning will rcjuvinate your instrument or will make your piano seem as fresh and clear in tone as the day you purchased it. . Telephone or write us regarding our excellent tuning service. One of our skilled artisans is at your disposal THE LAST PART OF NEXT WEEK to regulate, repair and tuno.

THE CODE TAX HILL The more that Scnntc File No. G5, Governor JIcKclvic's code commis sion tax bill, is studied by the people of tho state, the higher rises the tide of indignant protest and opposi tion. It appears, essentially, To be a bill to raise more revenues to meet the needs of an expensive code com mission system of government, and to do it by penalizing industry, enter prise, agriculture and home owning and homo building. That is why the farmers of tho state are protesting, why wholesale and retail business men are protest ing, why homo owners and those who realize tho necessity of a building campaign in Nebraska arc" protesting. Some other interests, it is true, ap pear to be very well satisfied with the bill as tho state senate 5s whip ping it into shape. The railroads, stockyards, packing houses, banks, owners of stocks and securities in general, appear to bo content. Under the provisions of tho bill fnrm property and real estate of all kinds is to bo assessed and taxed on its full value. Local control over tnxation is abolished and extraordin ary powers are vested in the tax commissioner at Lincoln, with a force of tax ferrets under his hand, to in sure that all tangible and visible property is listed and taxed at a full 100 per cent. But the intangible prop erty, money, shnrcs of stocks and securities, while listed nt its actual value, is to pay a merely nominnl tax of 4 mills on tho dollar. The farm er, the home owner, will pay a tax of from five to ten times as much, and in some instances even more than that. One certain effect of such a system of taxation will be to cripple the building trades, because it will be more profitable to invest moncv in securities than in homes and build ings. It will tend toward u short age in home, and a shortage in home N tho cause of the present liurdonome rent and housing condi tions that the legislature thought re quired aspccial committee to invosti-enlo. The legislature might much better have made tax provisions to encour age home building. A provision ex empting from taxation, say for a period of five years, buildings erected for homes, similar to that which has enormously stimulated building in New York, would much hotter have met the needs of Nebraska at this time. But tho legislature goes to the other extreme, penalizes building and industry, and awnrds the prize of a .nmi ln tnv in tho mtin who keeps his monov idle. A fnrmcr member of the senate has declared that he w.ould have been a groat deal of money ahead if he had sold his farm and stork in 1017 and invested tho money in low interest securities. He might have remained idle, ho said, instead of working hard and long hours, and would now be better off financially. A few more boosts towards a policv such as the administration pronoscs in Senate File No. fr.. and the farm ers may do it. Omaha World Herald.
