AT THE HOTELS.

4 J. Hopkins. Of Aurora, III. who IS az
the New willard 1t is ridiculous 10 say
that Illinois will turn Democratic this
election. Everybody. including the de-
feated candidates at the primaries on the
Republican ticket, viii turn in and help TO
swell the Republican majority There IS
absolutely no danger Of a split in the Re
publican party in Illinois
Speaking Of The primary election re-
Gently held in Illinois. Senator Hopkins
said that ne was confident that ne would
be reelected TO the United States Senate;
that outside Of Cook County he beat F5ss
and Mason by 1I.o90 votes; that out OF a
total OF I92 counties he carried S5 against
Foss and all against Mason. The Illinois
statesman further said that the legisla-
ture was safely Republican. and that.
therefore, his election 20 the Senate was
assured.
Senator Hopkins added that ne did not
think It would be good policy for Foss 70
contest The election in the face Of the re-
turns which assure his CEIopkinsD seIec-
lions unless Foss wished 20 Kill himself
politically.
And even If the Democrats should
carry Illinois by 15c1i0 the legislature
would remain Republican. for the simple
reason that the Democrats old not place
su1hcient candidates in the fed % effect
