CLYATT CONTRIBUTES
A CAUSTIC CRITICISM

Editor Star: A news item is sent
out from Tallahassee proclaiming
that Governor Hardee has kept his
campaign pledge to reduce taxes. 1t
is not true. The governor by his rec
ommendation and influence induced
the 1921 legislature to create an adj
ditional office and misnamed it "tax
equalizer" instead of clubbing it "tax
raiser" and the failure to have it's
true purpose stated in the title might
invalidate the law. The governors
recent campaign manager was ap-
pointed to draw the salary and with
out any inspection of property in
Marion county he issues an order to
the tax assessor of Marion county,
not to equalize, but arbitrarily in
crease all real estate values in the
county ten per cent. That is to say
that property now assessed at 10 per
cent of its true value, shall be increas-
ed to IL per cent of it's true value,
and property now assessed at full
value be increased 10 per vent above
its actual value. After doing this the
administration reduces the state tax
rate less than one-seventh of one per
cent, below the 1921 rate, and it is
carried in double column headlines
as a boast of having reduced taxes
1t will take $4,000 in tax valuation to
amount to 81 in reduction of the state
taxes below the 1921 rate, whereas
this $4,000 arbitrarily increased to
$500, the tax payer will be called on
to pay $3.50 more state taxes in 1921
on the same property, an increase of
near 81 per thousand. A scheme
worked like this, instead of being a
reduction of one one-eighth of one
mill, in dollars and cents of taxes
paid, viii actually amount to an in
crease of nearly seven-eights of one
mill, and this the taxpayer will find
out when he pays his taxes, if he is
able to pay them. The worst thing
about a tax-burdened state, is that
there is no rift in the clouds, no ray of
hope for the future. / thought that
when our tax rate went from SIT to
$50.75 per thousand in twenty years,
that the limit had been reached, but
not so. | understand the board of
county commissioners contemplates
increasing the county levy about ten
per cent above the present high-water
mark in taxation, and that the city
rate will probably be increased 20 OF
Is per cent. 1t seems that no effort
is made by those in authority to
economize or reduce the burden OF
taxation; on the contrary, it is a con.
slant cry for more and then more
taxes. When limit has been fixeo
by the constitution then the consti
tuition has been amended, and the PEG.

The navy fight passed onto the Senate
yesterday leaving a wake of bitter
feelings and Republican insurgency
in the House against the leadership
of Floor Leader Monden.

the House were elated over their vic
tory over the little navy leadership
of Representative MondeI. They
openly predicted that hereafter Mon

the White House for guidance.

TAKE SALTS TO
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat if you feel
Backachy or have Blad-
der trouble

Meat forms uric acid which excites
and overworks the kidneys in their
efforts to filter it from the system.
Regular eaters of meat must flush the
kidneys occasionally. You must re-
lieve them like you relieve your
bowels: removing all the acids, waste
and poison, else you feel a dull misery
in the kidney region. sharp pains in
the back or sick headache, dizziness,
your stomach sours, tongue is coated
and when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges. The urine is
cloudy, full of sediment; the channels
often get irritated. obliging you to
get up, two or three times during the
night
To neutralize these irritating acidL
and flush off the body's urinous waste
get about four ounces of Jad Sa'ts
from any pharmacy; take taUle-
spoonful in a glass of water before
breakfast for a few days and your
kidneys will then act fine and bladder
disorders disappear. This famous
salts is made from the ACID or grapes
and lemon Juice. combined with
nthia. and has been used for genera
tions TO clean and stimulate sluggish
kidneys and stop bladder irritation
Jad Salts is inexpensive. harmless and
makes a delightful effervescent nthia-
water drink which millions of men
and women take now and then, thus
avoiding serious kidney and bladder

STRINGS FOR MUSICAL
INSTRUMENTS

Each string in a violin is of a diff
ferent thickness, according to the tone
and tension required. The fourth
string is covered with fine wire, either
a white metal or real silver, hence 1t
is often called the silver string.
Niolas. violonceros and doubPe-bass-
es have each two covered strings on
the object being to insure a sufficient
gravity of tone without having too
clumsy material. The covered strings
on the guitar are upon a basds of silk
instead of catgut. The best gut comes
from italy. which has been famous
for centuries for this prcduct. Strings
are carefully selected and graded as
to size so that they shall be uniform
