“ Believing that the best way of further stimulating organisation is to create an intelligent interest in politics, the Secretary is now arranging, in pursuance of a resolution of the Executive Committee, to visit places where there are no Associations, with a view of delivering Lectures and conferring with local Liberals.
The active educational work of the Union was necessarily deferred till after the long vacation; since that period one hundred and six lectures have been either delivered or arranged for, and negotiations are in progress respecting others. ”

“ Assistance has been given to Central and Local Liberal Associations in the work of registration, by the publication and free distribution of practical suggestions respecting that necessary and important duty of every Liberal Association. ”

“ Considerable progress has been made in this important work; where Associations already existed there has been increased activity, new Associations have been formed in many districts, and the work of organisation is now proceeding in every county constituency. ”
