The fact that diamonds have positively been discovered in Pike county is a source of pride to everybody. Of course diamond mines have not been fully developed there, but there is every indication of good field. If a good diamond mine is developed it means more money for Arkansas and adds one more resource to the state. The News believes, however. that there are several different kinds of diamond mines to be developed in Arkansas if we would only touch the right spot.
