AFTER UNION PACIFIC.
Knights of Labor to Discuss Plan for
Government Ownership

Government Ownership
OMAHA, Neb., July Is. 1T is rumored
that Delegate Mcclure, member of the
executive board of the Knights Of
Labor, in session here, has a scheme
for having the government foreclose
the mortgage on the Union Pacific
road and have this railroad operated
by the government in the future, as
has been advocated by the Knights of
Labor. 1t is said that if the govern
ment would foreclose the Union Pa
cific mortgage the price of railroad
stocks would probably greatly de-
crease and that this would be the be-
ginning which wor I end in the gov
eminent owning and operating all the
railroads of the country. That this
matter will be considered during this
session is certainty. but it is not
known yet what process will be en-
ployed to bring about the foreclosure.
