Washington, Sept. 6. An extra session of congress will certainly be . held Immediately on the adjourn ment of the regular Bession. u This statement waa made today by Senator McCnmber of North Da kota, who has just come to Wash ington after conferences with the ' president aftd Mr. Taft on this sub ject. Not dnly will the extra sessien be 'held, the senator said, but the tariff will be revised. - "Among the important articles .which the west will demand shall be. placed: on the free list," said Sena tor McCumber, "are lumber and coal A fight will be made to conserve the raw materials that enter into the manufactures by putting them on the free list. The effort is to be made to put on the free list such articles as . Iron, lumber and coal, the constant consumption of which t tends to exhaust the supply." Residents of the great northwest hare hitherto bitterly opposed sug gestions looking to free lumber but It Is the opinion of Senator Mc Cumber that In regions where lum ber Is fast becoming scarce the idea Is becoming fixed that If the Ameri can markets could be opened to the Canadian lumber supply there would be, a material reduction In prices ' Although be does not share the opinion that such a reduction in price would follow the admission of free lumber, Mr. McCumber does think that many evils could be avoided by taking that commodity frou the duti able list and it will be his purpose to support this policy In the senate this winter when the extra session Is called. So far as the east is concerned, Mr. McCumber is of the opinion that manufacturers in that section will also make a great effort to get wool and hides on the free list. This, he said, the west "would undoubtedly oppose with all its power. "It Is my opinion," the senator said, "that we shall be in Washing ton all spring and possibly a good part of the summer ,lf the eastern and western interests fight each other in the' extra session." ing a harvest "In ace between Frant Harper of The Dal ndleton.
