BLACKFOOT, Ida, July 2S.-The in
dorsement of Borah by the Custer county
convention today gives that gentleman a
total OF 119 pledged votes OF a necessary
$50, This the Borab adherentsy claim
with the friends already pledged to him
in the unlnstructed delegations. Will be
sufficient TO nominate him in the conven-
ton.
Mr.. Borah's chief support up TO this
time has come almost entirely from the
Mormon counties. with the exception OF
his home county. Although sLrenuously
opposed by all tho leaders of the party
in southern Idaho, Borah. by an alliance
with the Mormon church, has succeeded
in securing instructed delegations from
all the Mormon counties except Bannock
where the Gentle population OF Pocatello
Is the dominating factor.
Likely to Be Nominated
II Mr. Borah can hold his Mormon
votes In line, a question OF which he
himself Is highly suspicious. he will
doubtless secure the nomination in the
convention and In that event Mr.. Borab
will fall heir TO the fight of his life, for
not single leader Of the party will line
up behind him.

publican battles since the old Mormon
days prefer Dubois TO Borah and they
are making no secret OF their prefer
ence. Borah, they argue, has too spotted
q career in politics to epthuse Republi-
cans. They charge that he has been
member OF every party In the State,
with tho possible exception OF the So
cialists. Twelve years ago he made
himself famous In Republican conven-
ton by opposing the nomination OF
Senator In the convention, and today he
is asking the same party to glve him

stitutional grounds.

AS Mr., Borah himself puts It, he has
been so near the Senate that he could
almost hear the gavel; but there has
always been that unfaillng slip, Should
he get by the convention next week,
he must do 80 by Mormon supporters.
and the State OF Idaho Is preparing to
put It's veto on church influence. He

his getaway, entered the house Of John
Murphy in the southern part of the
city last night. Mr.. Murphys young son
was asleep in the house at the time, and
the entrance of the man caused him to
awaken. Before the boy could get up
from the couch upon which he was lying,
the burglar seized him and in a few

make an outcry, he was bound hand

IN this manner the burglar ransacked
the house in an effort to locate money
which he evidently believed to be hidden
there, Mr.. Murphy did have large
sum of money hidden in the house until

manner someone learned that the money
was there. Had the burglar entered the
place few days sooner he would have

trouble.

one Of the mines, while his wife has
been upon a visit to Butte, Mont. She
returned upon the late train last night
and upon going to her home found the

the boy she notified Sheriff Whitehead
