West Salford Liberal Association, 94, Broad Street, Pendleton. - [Misspells Trevelyan's surname in the salutation]. The Liberals are looking for a candidate for the next election, and Trevelyan's name has been suggested. Asks him to consider them if he is 'at all inclined for parliamentary life'; the Liberals should be successful there 'given good work & management on the part of the constituency itself, & the attention of the candidate'. Sketches out the recent history of the seat under the previous Liberal candidate, Benjamin Armitage, and his Conservative opponent Lees Knowles, whose recent victories were by small margins only. Also gives an account of municipal elections to support the claim that the Liberals have a good chance of regaining the seat; emphasises that there is no friction in the local party, and that Mr Armitage is one of their 'heartiest supporters both in purse and person'. Offers a 'conference' to discuss the suggestion.
