Hopkins Seeks Senate Seat Amid Republican Field
Albert J. Hopkins of Aurora, a former U S senator with a solid record, is in the running for the Illinois Senate next year. Other Republicans mentioned include Medill McCormick, William H. Stead, William Hale Thompson, B M Chipperfield, and Fred W Upham. The 1918 race perilously fuses old and progressive GOP forces, with Bull Moose currents to split factions. Harold Ickes and Raymond Robins quietly index lines here as Roosevelt may prefer McCormick, though Ickes and Robins likely oppose it.
