NOME LAWMAKER
IS YOUNGEST AT
Representative James J. Bogan of
Nome, is the youngest member of
the Fourth Legislature, and the
youngest man ever elected to the
Legislature in this territory He is
24 years of age, and has lived half
of his life in Alaska. Mr. Bogan
got discharged from the United
States army at Fort Dodge to come
to Juneau to attend the Legislative
session.
Mr. Bogan and a brother, two
years older than himself, came to
Juneau after the death of their
father at Leadville, Colorado, where
both boys were born. Their mother
had died earlier, and they were or
phans, without relatives. Their
father had been in Alaska' in the
pioneer days, and the stories he had
told appealed to the imagination of
the Bogan boys, so they started out
for the land of promise. The elder
of the boys was fourteen and the
younger the present representative,
was but twelve when they reached
Nome. They worked at what they
could find to do, and attended
school. Nome liked them and they
liked Nome. They remained there
until September, 1918, tvhen they
sailed away on the transport, an
swering the call to arms of their
country. They got in the same
company, and were together in the
army as they had been as boys at
Nome, until James J. Bogan got
his discharge from the army to
come to Juneau to attend the ses
sion of the Legislature.
Representative Bogan is a gradu
ate of the Nome High school. His
brother is still in the army.

MINING OUTFIT ji
FOR 1ALKEETNA
LEFT 1HIS MORN
-.
A party composed of C. F. (Cap) j
Griffith, A. P. Clark and Frank Me- j
Gibney, with six double enders, j
three horses and a complete camping |
outfit and supplies, left this morn- j
ing, bound for the Talkeetna min- j
ing district.
The party is fully equipped for -
any emergency, even to extra skiis;

shoes for the horses.
Two tons of feed, which had
been sent on to the end of steel
some time ago, will be added to the
outfit on reaching that point, and
the journey will be made by way
of the Nenana Canyon and the
Broad Pass trail.
Cap Griffith intends to conduct
mining operations by the hydraulic
process on a large scale, on a por
tion of his extensive holdings on
Bird creek, for which purpose he
constructed a mile of ditch last
year. Working with Mr. Griffith
is A. P. Clark, one of the best
hydraulic miners in Alaska. Mr.
Clark’s experience in this method
of mining dates back to 1878. He j
has done considerable mining in the
Circle district since 1895, where he;
put in a good sized hydraulic plant 1
on Mastodon creek. j i
Alex Black, Frank McGibney and i
John Smith have taken a five-year
lay on a portion of Cap Griffith's']
ground on Bird creek, and they in- s
tend to build about one and one- t
half miles of ditch as soon as i
possible. Their hydraulic plant has -
been ordered and will probably be 7
landed at Talkeetna by April 15th. 1
The pay is found on the benches, 1
where, it is said, to be fifty feet : 1
to bedrock. !
The ground on which both Grif- >
fith and the laymen will work this:*
summer is on Bird creek, about 2
thirty miles from Talkeetna. and '
they will, draw all the supplies they'i
need frorj Talkeetna and Anchorage.! s
