Fishing on the Strawberry reservoir find river and tributaries opens next Tuesday morning, July 1. Hundreds of 'fishermen are already preparing for this eventful trip to the Strawberry valley, where the big speckled beauties (tome to grief as they' attack the anglers deadly lure. It is the ambition of every fisherman to land a big trout, and the real sportsman never uses a 'anding net. It is the thrill of the game o catch a big one and the sportsman ikes to give the fish a fair chance.' It requires some skill to hook one of them; it takes a professional to play .he fish after: hooked and even, then when the giant fish is brought to the edge of the stream its last effort may jring about its release. The least slack in the line' or. awkward movement by the angler means defeat in the capture of the much coveted prize, and he trout returns to its hiding place inder the bank or brush. 'Fishing ought to be very good on the opening day. It is to be hoped that the game wardens will keep out of the stream with their horses. Heretofore game wardens have paraded up and down the stream and when accosted they said they were looking for fish violators. What nonsense! There are so many fishermen along the stream that no violations take place on the opening day. The powder fiends await their opportunity when no one is in sight. The big fish run up the river from the lake and the general opinion prevails that the fording of the stream in the past has been done to scare the fish with an attempt to drive them back into the lake. It is a rotten deal to the fishermen and if the boys catch any one in the stream this year they ought to ascertain by what authority they are doing this unsportsmanlike work. Many opinions have been advanced for the reasons of using horses in the river to scare the fish and roil up the water to a murky condition. Some day we may find out the real reason. Fishing has not been very good in the Utah streams and only occasionally has a fisherman met with success. Some of the streams have already been shot and it is hoped that some of the dynamiters will be caught soon. Several of the farmers of the upper Weber river have notified Game Warden -- BECK CURTAILS' WORK. The Eureka Reporter says that deep work on the North Beck property has been stopped temporarily. There is a scarcity of water which affects successful mining. Springs which generally flow throughout the season have little or no water in them at this time. RECORD DIVIDEND. The Tintic Standard camp dinner. Scenes common on streams -by Union Pacific. Halstead between Wanship and Peoa, where many dead fish have been found along the banks of the stream and as a result the fish have quit biting and the fishing is poor. Frank E. Schefski has offered $25 reward to the person catching the first dynamiter on the Weber river and bringing about a conviction. The fish and game associations of the state ought to offer a standing reward for the arrest of these loathsome violators who to a great extent are responsible for the poor fishing in our streams. A decided effort ought to be made to round up the gang that is doing the work. Several names of fish blasters have been reported, and it is surprising who some of the men are, but the real evidence is lacking and therefore their names cannot be. announced. Cant we stop the dynamiting of fish in Utah? Now is the time to lay for them! The streams are low and these dynamiters head for the big fish holes. A vigilance committee ought to be organized to handle them and they should be treated the same as the horsethieves of the early days were handled. The sportsmen are becoming exasperated over the doings of the fish blasters and they are about ready for anything. of shooting Winers in the Who is Who contest in The Citizen June First Prize Miss Ella Keller, 664 East 7th South street.

Zinc is moving better than any other metal, although the market is not what it should be and holds below normal. The local mining stock exchange is experiencing a very dull and inactive market with very little money in sght for stock purchasing. The downward trend of metals is no doubt responsible for the dullness and many prospective Salt Lake county produces more minerals than any other county of the state. Last year the county produced 11,850,327 tons of mineral ore, valued at $40,161,796.

RADIO USES COPPER According to a recent survey the radio industry has consumed approximately 5,000,000 pounds of copper and other metals . There are now 2.500.000 radio sets in use. It is safe to say there will be not less than 15, 000,000 in five years and the radio industry may be expected to use 30, 090.000 pounds of copper during that time. This will be a direct help to the American mining industry. COME ON. YE FANS!
