The Progressive Era in Eugene started in 1884 and ended just prior to the beginning of World War I, in 1913. As its name suggests, this period is marked by a rising interest in social reforms and humanitarian activities throughout the state, including Eugene, which resulted in the organization of numerous aid societies as well as progress in industry and commerce.
