Summary

"Address of President Roosevelt at Canton, Ohio, September 30, 1907" by Theodore Roosevelt, is a powerful speech given to remember President William McKinley and the values he stood for. The speech praises McKinley's strong personality and his skill in bringing Americans together, even those with different opinions. Speaking after McKinley's death, Roosevelt talks about how important it is to be kind, brave, and united as a country. Roosevelt discusses important topics such as how jealousy can be harmful, and how we should judge people based on their actions, not just how rich or poor they are. He also talks about the need to treat honest business owners fairly while fighting against those who are dishonest, and the importance of respecting one another. This speech not only honors McKinley's memory but also encourages all Americans to work together with understanding and compassion.
