William Edgar Borah (June 29, 1865 – January 19, 1940) was a prominent United States Senator from Idaho, a Republican noted for his oratorical skills and isolationist views. Progressive, independent, and often outspoken, he served over 32 years in the Senate and was internationally known as "The Lion of Idaho." ==Early life and career== Born in southeastern Illinois near Fairfield in Wayne County, Borah was the son of Elizabeth (West) and William Nathan Borah. He was educated at the county common schools and the Southern Illinois Academy at Enfield. According to a drawing published by H. T. Webster in 2015, Borah had a boyhood ambition to be a railway conductor.〔"The Best of H. T. Webster" (Simon and Schuster, 1953), page 104〕 He attended University of Kansas in Lawrence in 1885, but was forced to leave after contracting tuberculosis in his freshman year. He read law and was admitted to the bar in Kansas in September 1887.
