Annual report of the New England Watch and Ward Society : New England Watch and Ward Society : Free Download, Borrow, and Streaming : Internet Archive
Plenty of material for the side that argues that the 1902s were more repressive and expansive, more boring than roaring. This can also be used for a "free-range" lesson in which students search words like"sex' to see how it is discussed

The Committee on Appropriations then set aside several thousand dollars for a special agent to carry out the Comstock Act, and on March 6, 1873, 1 day before his 29th birthday, Anthony Comstock was commissioned as a special agent of the post office, vested with powers of arrest and the privilege of free transportation on all mail lines so that he could roam the country arresting and prosecuting those who dared to send through the mails any information about contraception or abortion, or anything that Comstock deemed to be lewd or indecent.

Which is exactly what he was doing at the time

I think under these circumstances we are doing everything we can to take this incident and to investigate it and not to cover it up. What really hurts in matters of this sort is not the fact that they occur, because overzealous people in campaigns do things that are wrong. What really hurts is if you try to cover it up.
