Removing unnecessary paths in Inkscape

[Ofnuts]

I have a company logo that I want to use in an SVG icon file. The logo is a symbol followed by the company name.

I just want the symbol. I found how to clip it, but this is just masking stuff, the SVG still contains all the useless paths for the company name (and some software doesn't really pay attention to these masked off paths).

So, how can I remove all these extra paths?
