Address delivered by Colonel Roosevelt at the Relief Home of San Francisco to the one thousand inmates on March 29th, 1911, 1911 March 29.

Typescript transcription of an address given by Theodore Roosevelt in San Francisco stressing the importance of voting in elections with integrity with particular references to a vote-buying scandal in Adams County, Ohio. Roosevelt directs the bulk of his comments to the men in his audience noting that the women in it had not yet obtained the right to vote. An addendum to the address reads, "There were present in addition to the the Relief Home population, the members of the Executive Committee of the Red Cross Relief (1906), Messrs. Phelan, Dorhmann and Spreckels."
