I believe that what I saw is that obituary. But I also found these which you may have;
Wikipedia has a short article about him.

also there is a archived newspaper article from the Carroll Herald (IA0 about his success in MT dated June 12 1907:

Rasch, Carl L.
May ?, ????–Feb. ?, ???? Reason for termination: Dissatisfaction with Office Nature of other employment: Private Practice “I feel like a man who has had a mighty load lifted from his shoulders. If I were ten or fifteen years older I might consider staying on the bench, but I am not yet ready for the constraint which hedges about this position. It doesn’t comport with my
temperament. I like to have my friends, a man on the bench cannot have real friends. When I meet a man I know and like, I want to slap him on the back if I feel that way and ask him to have a drink. You can’t do that when you’re a federal judge.”
Court: D. Mont. Year of first appointment: 1910 Date of termination: Oct. 19, 1911 Age at appointment: ?? Age at termination: ?? Number of years on bench: ? Age at death: ?? Last Appointing President: William H. Taft Political party: Republican
