100 Years Ago
From the July 5, 1907, Mason"
County Journal:
Considerable rain fell Tuesday
night, which is of benefit to everybody
except those farmers who have hay
down. Most people usually wait till af
ter the Fourth to begin haying, but in
some directions hay has ripened ear-
lier than usual.
Rev. J.H. Taylor, secretary of the
anti-saloon league, delivered ad-
dresses at both Methodist and Baptist
Churches last Sunday. The league has
begun a crusade against the liquor
traffic over the state, and is responsi-
ble for the observance of the Sunday-
closing law, which is now enforced in
all of the cities and most of the towns
in the state. Shelton is one of the non-
class and notice has been served on all
local saloons that they will be prose-
cuted if the law is violated hereafter..
35 Years Ago
From the July 6, 1972, Shelton-Ma-
son County Journal:
The Shelton City Commission Mon-
day reversed a decision made the pre-
vious week and voted to hire architect
John Morse, Seattle, to do preliminary
planning and studies on a new city li-
brary building.
Mason County sheriffs deputies
and Washington State Patrol troopers
were keeping an eye on railroad cross-
ings on roads in the county Friday af-
ternoon after receiving a report that
anti-war protesters were planning to
take some action against a trainload
of ammunition destined for the am-
munition depot at Bangor.
10 Years Ago
From the July 3, 1997, Shelton-Ma-
son County Journal:
A Grays Harbor Superior Court
judge has upheld the Western Wash-
ington Growth Management Hearings
Board's findings of noncompliance by
Mason County with the state's Growth
Management Act.
In an emotion-packed sentenc-
ing hearing in Mason County Supe-
rior Court, Matlock resident Robert E.
Muehlberger was ordered to serve 14
months in prison for the February 12
shooting death of Michael Lindberg.
County tackles
weeds by woods
The Mason County Commission
on June 26 authorized an amend-
ment to a county agreement with
the U.S. Forest Service. This pro-
vides the county with $19,728 to

Hello,
my name is
GARY CRON
and I want to be
your next mayor
In order for you to make the best decision
with your vote, I invite you to get to know
me and what I stand for. I grew up in Port
Orchard and moved to Mason County over
30 years ago. My wife and I now own and
operate Case by Case Imports & Jewelry in
downtown Shelton. You are welcome to visit
me with your questions and concerns about
the city we live in.
I support better roads and quick removal
of hazardous abandoned buildings. I also
support quality police and fire departments
for a safer Shelton.
With your support, we will partner with
local groups to promote Shelton as a
business-friendly city. Working together, we
will plan and create the prosperous future
Shelton needs and deserves.
