GROVER CLEVELAND (1837-1908). Twenty Second and Twenty Fourth President. 4 ½” x 6 ¾”. Three page ALS on Gray Gables, Buzzards Bay, Mass. Letterhead. Dated Aug. 1, 1892 Grover Cleveland writes to John E. Russell, Congressman from Massachusetts, “My dear Mr. Russell, I was very glad to receive your letter and the article on the Bank Tax report. I have been thinking of that subject a good deal, and it has seemed to me that there was much justice and politics in it. I could not help thinking that the project furnished a first rate author for the Silver League. What you say on the subject is so wise and so fair that it gives me great strength and comfort. I won’t know when I shall write a letter of acceptance, but I hope it will be after I have seen you. And this leads me to say, I am delighted to learn that we are to have you and that other good democrat under our roof about the fifth of September. We will give you a hearty welcome and cool air. I hear that the campaign is doing very well. I do not know much about it presently. With kindest remembrances from us both to Mrs. Russell I am, Yours most Sincerely, Grover Cleveland”. Cleveland writes to Russell just a week after the The Democratic National Convention was held from June 21 -23, 1892 in Chicago. At the Convention, Cleveland was nominated as the Democrat’s candidate for the presidency. His commentary on the Bank Tax report offers a sarcastic view as to his thought on subject as the Silver League meeting had been held in Reno, Nevada on June 24, 1882. The Silver League was Republican oriented and in direct conflict with Cleveland’s supporters. While the Silver League was meeting in Reno, Democrats rallied to endorse the nomination of Grover Cleveland and Adlai Stevenson as their candidates. A choice Cleveland ALS with fine content written just after his nomination for presidency in the contentious political race of 1892. Excellent.
