Excerpt from Vice and Virtue: A Story of Our Times
Those chapters that portray what is vile in our present society can find a duplicate in any of our morning or evening papers, whose records of murders, robberies, rape, drunken brawls, dishonest public officials, tough saloons and the doings of vicious men and women, are of daily mention without any special significance, only as mere items of news.
