Tax rate debate for Nebraska replacement of property tax
Nebraska eyes light on how sales or income taxes might replace property tax revenue. Officials cite a $46.2 million goal from a $10.67 per thousand levy, with varying proposals from 2 to 4 percent sales tax and graduated income tax plans. Studies from Tax Research Council and University of Nebraska workshops provide revenue estimates ranging from about $30 million to $46.6 million for different rates and exemptions, as lawmakers weigh substitute revenue options for 1967-69 requests.

Devil's Nest in Knox County Nebraska Mixed Local Legend
Nebraska State Historical Society files describe Devil's Nest east of Niobrara as rugged vegetation filled wilderness not farmed.

Maiden's Leap near by is said to be a legend born as a Knox County joke later repeated as fact.
