Bedford Campaign Speech Attacks Hardy on Navy and Suffrage
Dr W A Bedford denounces Rufus Hardy in a Texas congressional bid. He touts personal roots in Limestone and Robertson counties, attacks naval cuts and proclaims preparedness as key, arguing for a strong US Navy and opposition to woman suffrage and national prohibition. He recalls 1898 Maine and Wilson era leadership.
