Tuning Your Piano!
The proverbial brass band o the street which squawks
its inharmonous music under the windows of the tenement
districts of the large cities always causes distress to the
listoncrs. 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 rejuvinatc
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.

TUB CODE TAX HILL
The moro that Senate File No. C5,
Governor JIcKolvic's code commis
sion tax bill, is studied by tho people
of the state, the higher rises the
tide of indignant protest and opposi
tion. It appears, essentially, to be
a 1)111 to raise moro revenues to meet
tho needs of an expensive code com
mission system of government, nnd to
do it by penalizing industry, enter
prise, agriculture and home owning
and home building.
That is why the farmers of tho
state are protesting, why wholesale
and retail lousiness men are protest
ing, why homo owners and those who
realize the necessity of a building
campaign in Nebraska arc protesting.
Some other interests, it is true, ap
penr to be very well satisfied with
tho bill ns tho state senate is whip
ping it into shape. Tho railroads,
stockyards, packing houses, banks,
owners of stocks nnd securities in
general, appear to bo content.
Under the provisions of tho bill
farm property and real estate of all
kinds Is to be assessed and taxed on
its full value. Local control over
taxation is abolished nnd extraordin
ary powers arc vested in tho tax
commissioner nt 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 intnngiblo prop
erty, money, shares of stocks nnd
securities, while listed at its actual
value, is to pay a merely nominnl tax
of 4 mills on the dollar. Tho farm
er, the home owner, will pay n tax
of from five to ton times ns much,
and in some instances even more than
that.
One certain effect of such n system
of taxation will be to cripple tho
building trades, because it will be
moro profitable to invest moncv in
securities than in homes nnd build
ings. It will tend toward a short
age in hornet, and a shortage in
home is the cause of the present
burdensome rent and housing condi
tions that the legislature thought re
quired a special committee to investi
gate. The legislature might much better
have made tax provisions to encour
age home building. A provision ex
empting from tnxation, say for a
period of five years, buildings erected
for homes, similar to that which has
enormously stimulated building in
New York, would much better have
met the needs of Nebraska at this
time. But the legislature goes to the
other extreme, penalizes building arid
I'nMiiatrir. nnd nwnrds the prize Of a
very low tax to the man who keeps
his moncv idle. A farmer member of
tho senate has declared that he w.ould
have been a great deal of money
ahead if he had sold his fnrm 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 bo better off financially.
A few more boosts towards a policv
such as the administration nronoses
in Senato File No. f.R. and the farm
ers may do it. umana worm riorum.
