POLITICS AND STAGE.
A PROTEST AGAINST BURLESQUE. SYDNEY, July 16. The Daily Tolograph, commenting on the impersonation of the Right Hon. G. H. Reid iby llr Laurie in the opera "Tapu," Bays it raises the question whether the stage can, without going beyond its legitimate province, enter the field of party political warfare. It regards it as a dangerous and altogether undesirable innovation, in the public interest, for theatres to make a practice of introducing public men into broad burlesque as is <done in "Tapu," and equally so in the interests of the dramatic profession.
