"Tong wars were widely covered in the San Francisco Examiner and other major newpapers [SIC]. They were often presented as sporting events, with a listing of the warring tong deaths and injuries listed in a box score. Tongs were most powerful between 1890 and 1920, with almost constant wars during this period."
