TO the People of Florida:
In giving to the public the results of
the State census taken in 1905, we desire
to explain that the counties of Dade,
Escambia and Orange are omitted from
the present list, because it has been i'm.
possible to get the completed copies of
the work in from the enumerators. We
have hoped and expected to be able to
publish that part of the census showing
the population of the State by counties
and the cities and towns in completed
form for several months, but as the de-
lays continue, we have concluded to
make public what we have and publish
the delinquent county returns when they
are received.
The cause of the delay in Escamhia
County is already we'll known. The
cnumerator of this county has and de.
serves the sympathy of every one in his
series of misfortuncs; first, the yellow
fever put stop to his work; then, after
beginning again and getting well along
with it, the result of his entire work

In the case of Orange County the
enumerator had almost completed his
work when he became afflicted with
malady that completely incapacitated
him for further work; after investiga.
ton disclosed the true cause of delay in
this case, we are fortunately able to en-.
list the services of Hon. l.. c. Massey
in strengthening matters out, and
through his kind and valuable aid the
work is being completed rapidly and will
soon be in this office.
We have been unable to get any report
from Dade County yet, though we have
taken up the matter with the Senator
, and Representative from that county, on
whose recommendation the enumerator
was appointed, and we hope to have the
matter in good shape soon. I'd
