Provo, April 10.-A question which is
agitating the minds of those who en-
gage in fishing is how to get rid of the
millions of carp which are rapidly in
creasing in Utah lake and streams
flowing therein.
There are a number of German fami-
lies living in this vicinity who do not
look upon this species of fish as pest,
but declare that when baked after a
fashion which they have adopted they
make very palatable food. 1t is very
difficult. however, to convince the
balance of the people that there is any
means known to scientific cookery,
which will render them fit for a table.
The flesh is strong and exudes stencil
which is almost nauseating to the gen.
eral run of people, unless the appetite
has been educated to it, as some are
TO the use of limburger cheese and
stale meats. The plan now proposed is
10 use giant powder and destroy all
the fish in the lake. There is a certain
time of the year that carp gather in
punches with their mouths to the sur
face of the water, sucking in the float
ing vermin. At this time, it is said,
they can successfully be destroyed by
the means suggested.
The only other fish which will not
materially suffer are the trout, which
collect higher up in the mountain
streams. Unless the carp are killed off,
it is only a matter of a short time
until they will be the sole occupants of
the waters of Utah lake and adjoining
ponds.

The Grand Army post of this city is
reaping the results of the eloquent
speech General Clarkson made at the
reception given him a little over week
ago. He has awakened the comrades
to the duties they owe each other, to
the need of consolidated action in their
cause and the benefits received by q
closer organization of their interests.
Several applications to join have been
received and as many more are about
ready to be presented.
The Mexican Womans Relief corns
will meet on Wednesday afternoon in
the G. A. r. hall, to which all members
in good standing are invited. This band
of earnest women is the right arm of
the Grand Army and every loyal lady
should be enrolled under its banner.

BRANN BADLY BEATEN.

Mr.. w. G. Brann, the famous edit,r of
Rrann's IcOnOclast, was quite severely
beaten in Waco, Texas, his residence city,
last Wednesday. Brann's IconocIast is
one Of the best known periodicals in the
United States. 1t is 50 unique in Ian
Guage, in expression and sentiment as
to make it easily the only original
Possessed Of rare genius as a writer
to which has been added study and
travel, he has by an independent style
and language itself, made Brann' Icon
oclast the most taIked-of and sought
after paper Of any ON our continent, If
reports are true. 1t is said that its cir
cuIation is nearly 500, O0G.
The periodical as been well named II
is indeed an image breaker, and while
The Progress does not indorse Mr..
Brann's sacrilegeous expressions. III
still must believe he is doing a vast
amount of good. 1t is not that we do
not indOrse his course, for we do: but
we object to his language sometime
though he is master Of it's polished use
when he desires to be.
The Progress believes Mr.. Brann to
be a brave, generous, upright man; one
who shuns hypocrisy, especially in the
church, and spurns with contempt the
fads. foibles and petty whims Of So
called society leaders.
