Theodore Roosevelt is shown speaking to a public gathering in Asheville, North Carolina, a mountain city he visited during his years of travel on the national stage. Bain News Service, the New York press agency that produced this glass negative, supplied newspapers with photographs of politicians and events in the early twentieth century. The record does not confirm the date or the exact occasion, and the title comes from unverified caption data, so the scene is best read as one example of the frequent public appearances that defined Roosevelt's political style.
