BOISE. Ida. Sept after ae-
cepting the denomination for United
states senator, w. b. Hepburn elec-
trified the Idaho state convention thls
afternoon by making an attack upon
the local option and direct primary
questions on the ground that the con-

all matters pertaining to politics

elegates opposed to local option or
