WHY ASSESSMENT IS HIGH.

One reason for the high tax millage in
the South generally is the inequality OF as
sessment; the other is found In the milliol
of dollars Of property that are not assess
at all. Recent tables published by TIL
Lumber Trade Journal for Louisiana illus-
trate the point.
For instance, comparing the books
the assessors with data shown on the Unit
ed States government report over two
million of livestock are not the rolls at
e1l-which contain less than 100000 Con-
sequently sixteen million dollar valua-
ton has TO carry the load of forty-eight
million
Again, less than 5000 automobiles, val
ued at Sc, $40, 457 were assessed, whereas
more than $4,000 paid licenses-and at the
most conservative valuation, the minority
are carrying the burden of four million
dollars, exempt.
Finally million and a half acres of land
in Louisiana are not ON the assessment
rolls-both in the country and in the city!
Twenty-Five parishes Of Louisiana did
not assess a single hog Thirty-five did
not assess farm improvements, machinery
or equipment of any kind for farm use.
Fifty-five did not assess any diamonds or
jewelry, and fifty did not assess any notes,
credits and accounts.
Just where discrimination ends and in
competency begins, would be hard to say
but it is the entire system that is at fault
Louisiana is trying to correct her system
slowly and not very surely-but neverthe-
less trying.
And speaking about systems, Florida's
needs correcting from the ground up, as
the vulgate hath it, or alb ovo, in more e1e-
CANT language. When the law is changed
that virtually reduces tax paying to volun
teer contributions, we will be able to at
tack the problem of equalization with
greater precision

RHEUMATISM PAIN

The exact cause of rheumatism is un-
known. though it is generally belieyed to be
due to an excess of uric acid in the blood.
1t may be also said with equal truth that no
remedy has been found which is specific
in all cases. In fact the nterature-o OF fheu-
nnatisIn shows that there are bat few drugs
which have not been given q trial. In the
hands of one observer We and that certain
drug has been used with the utmost salts
faction; others have found the same remedy
to be great disappointment. All physf-
clans however agree that every method Of
treatment is aided by the administration of
the nervous system and DIR. w. 8. Sohultze
expresses the opinion OF thousands Of pTac-
titioners when he says that antf-kamniR
tablets should be given preference ove~ all
other remedies for the relief of the pain in
all forms of rheumatism. These tablets can
be purchased in any quantity. They are
also unsurpassed for headaches, neuralgias
and all pain. Ask for Ak Tablets.

LAND DECIDED TO THE CITY

Wednesdays program for the
Omaha Real Estate board will be a
talk by Harry A. Turkey on the de-
velopment of the St. Mary's avenue
district. Mr.. Turkey recently closed a
deal whereby a long lease was OBJ
tanned for a syndicate, which will
build a big business block on the
corner OF Howard and Seventeenth
streets.
Through these negotiations also a
wide strip OF ground was decided to
the city free of charge for the widen
ing of Howard street from Seven
teenth to Twentieth streets. This, to-
gether with a lot of recent activity
on St. Mary's avenue and on Leaven-
worth street, has set real estate men
to contemplating this section OF the
city more seriously.
