Book excerpt: Excerpt from Special Census Report on the Occupations of the Population of the United States: At the Eleventh Census, 1890 I have the honor to transmit herewith the material for a special report on the Statistics of Occupations. The statistics contained herein relate to the occupations of the people of the United States according to the census of 1890, and show the number of males and females 10 years of age and over engaged in gainful occupations, classified by general nativity, color, age periods, conjugal condition, months unemployed, illiteracy, and inability to speak English. These statistics constitute a part only of the discussion and general tables relating to occupations, which will appear in Part II of the Report on Population, but are all that could be readily printed in advance of the publication in full of the occupation tables, covering more than 550 quarto pages. This special report on occupations has been prepared by Mr. William C. Hunt, who has had charge of the population work of the Eleventh Census from the beginning, and I desire to thank him for the ability and faithfulness with which he has performed his duties. The statistics of occupations with respect to mortality, which are too voluminous to form a part of this Special report, will appear in Part I of the Report on Vital and Social Statistics, now in process of printing. The preliminary results of the detailed tabulations of occupations, so far as they pertain to the number of persons of each sex who were engaged in remunerative work at the census of 1890, were published, subject to final revision, in Extra Census Bulletin N o. 99, May 18, 1895. Since the publication of that bulletin, a very careful scrutiny and revision, wherever necessary, has been made of the occupation data in all their fullness of detail, and the copy for that section of Part II of the Report on Population, which it alone lacked for its completion, is now ready for transmission to the printer.
