Morning Post: Tuesday 13th September 1887

Newfoundland and the Fisheries Commission: St. John’s Newfoundland, Sept. 11th. The Newfoundland Press, alluding to the Anglo-American Fisheries Commission, demands that the Colony shall be represented as well as Canada. The newspapers urge that Newfoundland has vital interests at stake in the matter of the fisheries and declare that a self-governing people will resent having its affairs dealt with by a tribunal in which it has no voice. The grand jury of the St. George’s Bay District has made a strong presentment to Judge Pinsent regarding the threatened French competition in the herring fishery. The judge commented on the notifications of the French commanders that they would not allow the Newfoundland people to take herring on the west coast, and repudiated their assumption that the investiture of a British official with authority on the French shore was irregular.
