ATTORNEY GENERAL 0LNEY
Makes the First Argument and Is
Followed BY Clarence barrow
For the Petitioners

WAsH1NoroN, March 2G.---The hearing
on the application of Eugene V. Debs
and others for writ of habeas corpus
Tor release from Imprisonment was re-
aumed in the supreme court at noon to-
day. Attorney General Olney made the
first argument, speaking in opposition to
the application He said the single ques-
ton before the supreme court was
whether the court below had jurisdic-
ton in the case made by the original
bill, and proceeded to show, as he viewed
the matter, that it had. He devoted very
little time to discussion of the govern
ment's technical relations to the mails,
but passed to the consideration of the
strike as violation Of the interstate
commerce regulations. He enumerated
many federal laws bearing on the ques-
tion of interstate traffic and noted the
provisions of several general statutes
which cover the whole field of interstate
railroad transportation, and showed most
conclusively what he declared the pur.
pose of congress TO exclude every other
source and form of regulation except its
own. Olney asserted that interstate
railroad transportation was being inter
fered with in Chicago in 1894 and the
present petitioners were to tho fullest
extent responsible. The state authori-
ties by inactivity or lily directed efforts
aggravated the evils of the situation.
Hence it became necessary for tho gov
ernment to step in, not only in defense of
individuals, but obedient to it's obliga-
tions to protect interstate commerce.
Olney was followed by Darrow for the
petitioners. who declared that the attor-
ney general overlooked the interests of
countless millions Of working people and
the danger to civil liberty embraced in
the case. He declared the state had been
ever anxious and able to preserve the

II. P. Rolfe, Died March IS, lS9J,
With mingled emotions OF regret for
the departed aud sympathy for the sur
viving relatives, the newspaper men in
meeting assembled feel it a mourntul
duty to give some expression to their
feelings upon the death Of II. Z. Rolfe,
editor Of the Great Falls Leader.
As a pioneer resident and an early
journalist, deceased bore an important
part in the establishment, growth auti
prosperity of the city, and though his
career was not free from reveTsns, he
ever kept the faith. held an unewerving
belief in the future greatness Of his home,
and thus set an example that can be
initiated by the timalous. That he
was not permitted TO live TO realize
the full measure OF his hopes and en-
JOY the resultant benefits is a cause for
sincere regret. Stricken down in the
vigor of health and very prime Of life.
almost without warning, the taking off
of Mr. Rolfe calls for halt in order that
we may ponder over the great mystery

Prominent Organizations Of Which
lie Was a Member Take
suitable Action.

shocked yesterday morning to hear of
the death of II. p. Rolfe, editor and man
ager of the Great Falls Leader, who
passed away about 6:45 d. m. after
short illness. The public were gener-
ally unprepared for the sad intelligence,
for although a few Of his intimate
friends had known for several days that
his illness had assumed an acute and
critical phase it was unknown to most of
his friends and the public generally.
About five weeks ago Mr.. Rolfe was
taken sick with bilious fever which kept
him confined to bis residence for several
weeks and to his bed portion of the
time, but he recovered from this attack
so far that he ventured to come down
town about ten days ago to attend to his
business at the Office He only remained
there few hours, but the exertion IN
could bear and relapse was the conse-
quence. He gradually grew worse and
typhoid symptoms appeared few days
ago. This was more than his weakened
frame and constitution undermined by
the previous illness, could stand and he
sank into state of unconsclousness a
few days ago from which he never re-
covered.
The deceased leaves a wife and seven
children: Mary Pauline, now attending
college at Oberlin, Ohio, Harriet Louise,
Helen Marston, Lucia lone, Herbert
Edgerton and Martha Edith, twins, and
Hester.
His death deprives Great Falls OF one
of its earliest pioneers. and a man whose
faith in the city's progress and ultimate
greatness never for moment faltered.
When Great Falls was little but an open
prairie he surveyed its future streets and
city lots now occupied by solid and sub
stantial business blocks. He WAS closely
identified with many projects for the up
building of the city and theimprovement
of its social conditions. He was an hon
ored member of the Masonic fraternity,
being past master of the blue lodge in
this city, past high priest of the chapter
and past eminent commander of the
commandery. and member of the nys-
tic shrine at Helena. He was also a
member of the A. O. Z. W., the X. Of P.
and the Woodman of the World, al
though, on account of his age, he was not
a beneficiary member OF the latter order.
| He was at the time of his death mem

death yesterday the State Press Associa-
