KNOXVILLE. Tenn, Sept. Il, 1873.
l hereby certify that was alderman,
representing in part the 7th ward of the
city of Knoxville, in the year 1873, and in
the same council was Thomas Ia. Will
liams, from the 4th ward, and that on the
18th of FEBRUARY, Of the same year, he
suggested and made speech to the effect
that the laboring mems wages on the
streets should be cut down from $l.O0 to
80 cents, and that any man could live ON
so cents. This l certify TO be the burden
of his speech, PAT SHEA.

Pat Shea is an intelligent young lawyer.
Ny competitor denounces him, and am
glad to hear my young friend talk that
way. Pat. Shea is an Irishman, and
will all of them vote for me If you talk
that way. (Laughter) But here is q
statement from man whose character he
will NOT attack, and his statement will not
be questioned by any one:
Wrhis is to certify that l was city editor
of the Knoxville CHRONICLE IN the year
1873, as L am now, and that Thomas l..
Williams, Esq, was alderman from the
fourth ward Of the city of Knoxville; also
that at regular meeting of the city coun-
Gil on the night of February 10th, 1873, in
the cause of discussion on q motion of
Alderman Irwin (colored) to have colored
men employed on the streets, the said
alderman, Thomas l.. Williams, claimed
that the street hands employed by the COR
poFation should not be paid but eighty
cents per day, which he affirmed was the
highest market price for labor. He was
opposed by Alderman Pat Shea and Moses
Smith (coored), who were members of tho
same board, and who maintained that
laboring man could not live for less than
one dollar per day, the amount they were
then paid. The above remarks were sub
stantially reported by me in the proceed
