of politics to pay tribute to
the lowly mule, which he
declared has “a rightful

tory.”
“In fact.” declared Scott, “with
the hard times which seems to be
ahead we’re probably going to be
needing the mule more man we
have In the part.”
The ex-governor, who Is touring
the State to determine whether or
not to run for the United States
Senate, eulogized the mule for .*-
bout 19 minutes to his speech. Re
pointed out that Robeson County
mule* khT particularly famous.
Carttor Scott posed for pictures
with a prize - winning mule. He
said it had been a long time since
he’d hitched up one.
But Scott’s visit wasn’t entirely
devoid of politics
He wag introduced by Simoo P.
Honeycutt, popular founder to Ben
son's annual singing event, as "our
next United states Senator.” About
