Guide to the Collection
Abstract
This collection consists of the papers of William Eustis Russell, mayor of Cambridge, Mass. and governor of Massachusetts, including correspondence, speeches, printed matter, letterbooks, and scrapbooks.
Biographical Sketch
Born in Cambridge, Mass. on 6 Jan. 1857, William Eustis Russell was the ninth child and fourth son of Charles Theodore Russell, a prominent lawyer and Civil War mayor of Cambridge, and Sarah Elizabeth Ballister Russell. He graduated from Harvard in the class of 1877, which also included future luminaries A. Lawrence Lowell and Barrett Wendell, and became the first ever summa cum laude at Boston University Law School in 1879.
As his family was politically involved and strongly Democratic, Russell took quite naturally to public affairs. Elected to the Cambridge Common Council at the age of 24 in 1881, he advanced to the Board of Aldermen a year later and served four one-year terms as mayor. Though his tenure was marred somewhat by a bitter street railway strike in 1887, Russell was regarded as a highly successful reform executive. He implemented civil service reform, balanced the city budget, and lowered the tax rate substantially. Russell's "Cambridge idea" of government was highly acclaimed in state and nation, and he was an obvious choice for the Democratic gubernatorial nomination when he left the mayoralty in 1888.
Unable to buck the prevailing Republican tide in Massachusetts, Russell lost his first two races for governor in 1888 and 1889. In 1890, however, the young civil service reformer made peace with the powerful Irish Democrats of Boston and discovered a winning issue: tariff reform.
Armed with an impressive array of statistics, Russell stumped the length of the state, blaming industrial ills on the high Republican McKinley rates on raw materials. He proclaimed reduction as the panacea which would bring about cheaper goods, increased demand, more work, higher wages, and prosperity. Though he could do nothing about the tariff in the governorship, Russell nonetheless struck a responsive chord with his audiences and was elected over Republican John Quincy Adams Brackett by 9,000 votes.
As governor, Russell attempted to acquire more executive power for his largely ceremonial office, but was rebuffed by the Republican legislature. Still, he maintained his reputation as a conservative reformer by championing the repeal of the poll tax, aiding the passage of a corrupt practices act, and signing a bill reducing working hours for labor. A major Russell initiative was the creation of the Metropolitan Park Commission, which, under Charles Francis Adams and Charles Eliot, fashioned large-scale recreational facilities near the shores and woodlands of Greater Boston.
Though he was a capable administrator, Russell was primarily known for his prowess as a political campaigner. Eschewing the detachment displayed by most of the politicians of his class, he toured long-ignored rural and industrial regions of Massachusetts and spoke eloquently about local concerns. Consequently, Russell was re-elected governor in 1891 and in 1892, despite the sizable defeat in the state of the still-victorious presidential candidacy of Grover Cleveland.
Throughout the 1890s, the young, popular Massachusetts governor was touted as a potential successor to his friend Cleveland. However, a severe economic depression and a strong movement among southern and western Democrats favoring the free coinage of silver doomed his chances for the presidency. At the Democratic National Convention of 1896, Russell played a supporting role, speaking vainly for a party commitment to the gold standard and sound money. The impassioned speech of silverite William Jennings Bryan, which immediately followed that of Russell, took the convention by storm and won for the Nebraskan the presidential nomination Russell coveted.
Not long after the Convention, a tired and frail Russell went on a salmon fishing excursion to Quebec. There, at the camp of a friend, the 39-year-old former governor died unexpectedly on 16 July 1896.

This subseries contains correspondence related to Russell's political activities prior to his governorship. Included is a long letter from Russell to his father proposing to reform and reinvigorate a struggling Democratic Party in 1882, congratulatory correspondence related to his election as mayor of Cambridge in 1884, a small amount of material on city government, and letters urging Russell to run for Congress in 1886. The bulk of this early material, however, concerns Russell's unsuccessful contests for governor, 1888-1889, and his ultimate election on the tariff issue in 1890.

Letters from Mayor Nathan Matthews discuss Boston city politics and government, in which the state was heavily involved.
This subseries also contains a handful of significant letters from Grover Cleveland to Russell about civil service reform, the tariff, the silver question, and the principles of the Democratic Party.
