[200-1] As federation is used in these pages for combinations of self-governing groups, no allusion is here made to any plans for uniting dependencies for administrative purposes such as that contained in C. S. Salmon's _The Caribbean Confederation_, London, 1888, or in the established grouping of dependent areas now styled "Federated Malay States "--concerning which latter, see Frank Swettenham, _British Malaya_, London, 1907. Such bear no comparison with self-governing federations.

[202-2] Letter of Rhodes to Parnell, June 19, 1888, quoted in W. T. Stead, _The Last Will and Testament of Cecil John Rhodes_, London, 1902, pp. 122-124. On p. 120, Stead states as to Rhodes' contribution to the Irish party: "The contract between the African and the Irishman was strictly limited to the conversion of Home Rule from a disruptive to a federative measure. It had no relation directly or indirectly to any of Mr Rhodes' Irish-African schemes. The whole story is told at length by 'Vindex' in an appendix to _The Political Life and Speeches of Mr. Cecil Rhodes_, from which I quote these letters."
