Special to Times-Repubilcan.
Grand Junction, Oct. 27.-There was
a rousing republican meeting at the
opera house. Thursday evening. Elk
Governor Larrabee and w. l.. Eaton
were the speakers. The audience gave
the speakers their close attention thru.
out the evening.
The ex-governor made plain his po-
sition that the dominant factor in this
election Is whether the corporations
shall control the state government. His
exposition of the manner and means
used by the railroads to acquire COZ
troll, the lavish and unfair use OF mon
ey, the fancy salaries paid their Off
GERS, the enormous gross incomes Of
the railroads, the fast increasing enor-
nous net profits Of the past ten years,
startled the audience, and when told
they paid 1t III the understanding was
clear why their money went less far
than ten years ago. They fully appre-
c,ate the force Of the ex-governor's po-
sition, and the necessity at this time
of the votes to lay aside personalities,
prejudices and party and preserve the
state government for the people.
