BRIDGEPORT.


Martins Ferry EUening Times last Thurs
day:
"a. Breidenstein has secured temporary
injunction against the Standard mill oc-
cupying Union street that was vacated by
Council last night, yet he refuses TO donate
the other twenty-five feet from his prop
.erty to make the street of the required
width, and as all streets and alleys that
are vacated revert to the original owners,
his action looks selfish II not untenable."
Mr.. Breidenstein being one OF the best
known residents OF the town, wefeel called
upon to respond TO the above statement,
which is entirely Incorrect He will gladly
donate the twenty-five feet from his prop
erty to make the street the required width,
and has never yet refused TO do so. 1t
seems as though some OF the people up in
that direction want TO run things 10
suit themselves, and would, if they could
legally, take Mr.. Breidenstein's property
and convert it into private park for their
own individual convenience. It's not only
slur on the gentleman, but misstatement
throughout.
