Tuning Your Piano!
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.
