"Nuisance," "Stench," "Disgrace," but Legitimate Fruit

"Wine and Spirit Gazette," New York, August 23, 1902: "The saloon as conducted is a nuisance and a loafing place for the idle and vicious. It is generally on a prominent street and is usually run by a sport who cares only for the almighty dollar. From this resort, the drunken man starts reeling home. At this resort, the local fights are indulged in. It is a stench in the nostrils of society, and a disgrace to the wine and spirit trade."
