LIoUoR DEALERs, EXCLUSION rpHELn.

The bylaw of the Ancient Order OF United Work.
men OF the State Of New-York prohibiting the cleo
ton Of saloonkeepers members was yesterday
upheld by Justice Scott, in the Supreme Court as
being constitutional. The question of the legality
OF the bylaw raised by John Goett who when
halter, Joined the organization in 1896 The asso-
citation had passed law in 1898 barring retail liquor
dealers from membership It being explained that
they were not desirable insurance risks
Goett agreed To observe all the laws of the order
and such might be subsequently enacted by the
Grand Lodge OF this State. In 1888 an amendment
to the saloonkeepers' exclusion bylaw was passed
declaring that any member becoming a retail liquor
dealer after that date should forfeit his member
ship.
Goett opened saloon in October 1883. and his
dues refused on that ground and he was taken
from the roll
Justice Scott says the amendment was the logical
sequence Of the general law against liquor dealers
and while there might be some doubt as to whether
il would bar Goett from the organization had he
been liquor dealer prior to its passage the amend
ment was undoubtedly enforceable against him.
