Mrs. John Banahan'

By the death of Mrs. John Bana- han, aged 69 years, on October 23d at her home on the Sands, Canaan loses an interesting and unique per sonality. She was the daughter of Moses Hall and very proud of her Pequot ancestry. From her Indian bIOod, Mrs. Banahan inherited her knowledge of the woods and herbs, her love of animals, her marvellous eye sight, courage and vitality. She loved to tell in vivid words the his t0ry and traditions of her vanished race. 1f,
 Mrs. Banahan was proud too, of the patriotism and sacrifices of her family during the civil war. This pride was renewed when her son William enlisted in the recent World War and served overseas. lE .-..
 A few years ago her son John was Killed by the cars, and his mother never recovered physically nor 0lell- tally from the shock of his death. Her devotion to her aged father and blind mother was rewarded by the faithful care she received from her two sons. In our troubled and over complex civilization we may well feel sense of loss when tie is broken, which connects our lives, with those more primitive and elemental than our own-from which we have much to learn and know too Ettle.*

KATHERINE M. GRANGER
 IS LAID TO REST
Was Daughter of the Late Judge Miles T.
 Granger

On Friday evening, October twenty-second Katherine M. Granger entered into the life eternal She was the daughter of Judge Miles Tebey Granger and Caroline Fergu- son Granger, and was a life long resident of this town in which she was born. |.
 She was one of five sisters, one of whom the wife of Dr. Charles W. Camp died June twenty-third 1917. Her only brother, a physician, and a young man of great promise died Tn 1876. From that time she evinced great interest in the condition of the cemetery, which later in measure led to the formation of the Cemetery Association of which she was dl- rector at the time of her death. With the passing of this life there went from among us one whose devotion to her home and to her church was unfailing.
 For many years a member of Christ church choir, she also for a long tinfe assisted in the care of the altar. She was true lovef of na- ture, spending much time amidst her flowers and was always interested in the welfare of birds and of all dumb animals Miss Granger was a loyal friend and will be greatly missed by many who will cherish the memory of her pleasant, cheery greetings.
 As she was laid to rest in the family lot on a bright October after noon the words of her favorite hymn came fittingly to mind. a-. '@The golden evening brightens in the
 West; a< .- Sweet is the calm of Paradise the
 blest, .. ,..
 AIIeluia."

MISS ELLA CONSIDINE
 A POLITICAL LEADER
Telephone Bulletin Gives
 Local Manager a Write-Up

The following account is taken from the Telephone Bulletin of October, and will be of interest to Miss Considine's friends:
 This is political story.
 But it is a political story that should hold at least a little interest for the women folks and perhaps the men in our company. The news ele- ment is all in the brief statement that Miss Ella Considine, our Ex- change Manager at Canaan, has been appointed member of the Republi- can town committee in her town and that she has accepted the appoint ment. The rest of the story is just filling, or detail, which may or may not hold your attention to the end.
 This is the first political story The Bulletin ever published and it may be the last. However, the writer will try to be absolutely impartial and .non-partisan, because, now that women have taken a running broad jump into the merry game of politics, we just naturally shun all political arguments. It is safe to say that a very small number of the women in our company have thus far taken a lively interest in politics. This be- lief is due to the fact that of about 20 women spoken to about Head quarters on the subject only four seemed to have a definite idea of what suffrage meant to them; the duty it thrusts upon them. How the four, who had their political ideas and ideals, will vote may be told in r a later issue of The Bulletin. - > Now Miss Considine was not an active sufragist. She was only pas sively interested in the long con- tinued efforts of the women of Con- necticut to secure the right to vote. She favored equal suffrage quietly, perhaps effectively, but without any of the socalled militant features or brass bands. She didn't attend leg islative sessions and lobby for the cause like some of the more active workers who, when Archibald Mo Neil, Jr., of Bridgeport was in the Senate in 1913 or was it 1911, and was chairman of the woman's sutf-
 
 rage committee, used to give Mir. McNeiI several boxes of candy every day, A testimonial to his popularity and strength with the ladies and of their desire to please the members of that committee.
 In several of the small towns of the state women have lately been added to the Republican and to the Democratic town committees. In fact, between us, girls, there is a lively scramble by the professional politicians to corral the woman vote. Several town chairmen have selected women for town committee men?, not taking the places of men, but adding the new voting element to the committees. <

A COME BACK TO
 WAGNER'S SPEECH
Democratic Candidate for Lieut.-Governor Slings
 Some Mud

At the Democratic Rally held at the town hall Saturday evening, E.. O. Wagner, of Lakeville, demo- cratic nominee for Lieutenant Gov ernor, tried his best to initiate Gov. Cox in a mud-slinging act. M. D. Rudd, republican nominee for state senator from this district was the victim, but from all accounts we doubt if the mud came any where near him. Herewith we print with great pleasure letter from man whose word can be depended upon, regarding Mr. Rudd.-Editor's Note.
 Canaan, Connecticut
 October 18th, 1920. To the Editor of the News,
 Canaan, Connecticut,
 Sir= s
 It was my pleasure to attend a Democratic Rally" at Canaan, Connecticut, on Saturday evening, October 23rd, 1920, and to hear Judge Francis T. Reeves, of Water bury, Connecticut, speak on the League of Nations.
 This subject has seemed to me 8 very vital one, and was gratified to listen to Judge Reeves, for he treated the subject in a quiet, earnest, gen. tlemanly manner, fully in keeping with the seriousness, of the great issue involved.
 Following Judge Reeves discus sion, we were treated, by Ernest O. Wagner, of Lakeville, Connecticut, to type of political oratory of the last century; a condemnation of the Republican Nominee of the 31st. Senatorial District of Connecticut, Malcolm D. Rudd, of Lakeville, Conn.
 Knowing Mr. Rudd personally, and realizing that many of our electorate are hearing about him politically, for the first time, and also admiring the type of statesman he represents, it is impossible for me to let this con- demnation go unchallenged.
 It was my privilege to work for many weeks with MT. Rudd, on a special Governmental Board, when Our Country first entered the World War, and although the work required a high degree of patience, persever- ence, patriotism, and integrity, I found that MT. Rudd measured up well to the standard, and ,itswasNa pleasure to work with him.
 |. The safety of a Democracy rests upon the intelligence of it's elector- ate, voting for men of knowrs char acter, patriotism and integrity, and l should consider myself a delin- quent citizen, were to remain silent, when a man of MT. Rudd's type is assailed.
 MT. Rudd loves his home, is ever jealous of the best interests of his home community, is we'll versed ia the history of. his State and it's poli- cies, and is 100 per cent patriotic.
 Greatly regretting that occasion has arisen for this statement, and irrespective of party affiliations, I can conscientiously endorse the can- didacy of Malcolm D. Rudd, resting assured that he will conduct himself in a manner becoming the best in- terests of his electorate and State, ever mindful of the honour bestowed upon him by the voters of the 31st. Senatorial District of Connecticut. John G. Adam, M. D.

Agan and Local Option

Just What springs, levers, wheels and
switches the wet vote at the March
election turned loose in Frank Agan's
brain, probably Mr. Agan himself can
no tell us, but anyway it appealed to
his political instincts, as he basked in
the California sunshine much as a pre-
vailng epidemic appeals to patent
medicine men, and he started east with
cure-all for a platform, which he
judged by the vote, would appeal to
more than one-half the voters of Yer
mont.
If Mr. Agan had been in the patent
medicine business the Federal gov
eminent would have been after him
for the pure food and drug act, long
ago tabooed cure-alls, where there was
no possibility of affecting a remedy
This law hasn't been extended to pol
itics yet and Mr. Agan hasn't been
called up on the carpet for running on
platform, which is manifestly inn
possible of plishment in the man
ner he chooses.
The whole thing is that Mr.. Agan
thought he saw a popular clamor for
liquor and he is going to capitalize it
for the purpose of getting votes. He
might just as well have promised to
restore missing limbs, to give the pen
nant to the Red Sox or make Adam
and Eve put the apple back in the
garden of Eden But, instead, he pass
ed up all these laudable achievements
and placed all his hopes on bet that
majority of the voters of Vermont
would grasp at straw and cast their
votes in his direction on the vaguest
promise of drink.
What we don't like about Mr. Agan
is that he has gone on the theory that
Vermonters brains lie in their parched
threats. Conditions have changed
since Mr., Agan ran for lieutenant gov
ernor IS years ago, and evidently he
hasn't heard about it. He simply saw
his old colleague Mr. Clement, elected
governor and thought that by pursuing
the same policies even to the minutest
details, he could accomplish the same
end. He didn't take into considera
ton the United States Constitution,
for even high school boy could tell
him that if he is sincere in his desire
to allay the thirst of Vermonters, he
is in the wrong alley He should have
run for Congress where as Mr.. Babbitt
has often pointed out, sensible rem
edy lies in the modification of the Vol
stead act. The Landmark.
