These boats included the ''Old Settler'', ''Irene'', ''Willie'', ''City of Shelton'', ''Marian'', ''Clara Brown'', and ''S.G. Simpson''.〔Newell, Gordon R., ''Ships of the Inland Sea'', at 165–66, Binford and Mort, Portland, OR (2nd Ed. 1960)〕 The economy was built around logging, farming, dairying and ranching as well as oyster cultivation.〔 The Simpson Timber Company mill on Puget Sound's Oakland Bay continues to dominate the landscape of the downtown area. Shelton also identifies itself as the "Christmas Tree Capital". Formally incorporated in the 1890s, Shelton's municipal government is run in the Mayor/Commission form.〔http://www.ci.shelton.wa.us/city_commission.php〕 It is the last city in the State of Washington to use this form of government.
