Registering post type is not adding to admin menu

The following registration code is hooked into init and I have verified that it is running, however I am not seeing “Slides” appear in the admin menu.

register_post_type(self::$post_type, array(
    'labels'               => array(
        'name'               => __('Slides', 'bonestheme'),
        'singular_name'      => __('Slide', 'bonestheme'),
        'add_new_item'       => __('Add New Slide', 'bonestheme'),
        'edit_item'          => __('Edit Slide', 'bonestheme'),
        'new_item'           => __('New Slide', 'bonestheme'),
        'view_item'          => __('View Slide', 'bonestheme'),

  1. Remove

    'capability_type'      => array('slide', 'slides'),

    This works

    add_action( 'init', 'slides_post_type' );
function slides_post_type() {

register_post_type( 'Slides',
    array(
'labels' => array(
    'name'               => __('Slides', 'bonestheme'),
    'singular_name'      => __('Slide', 'bonestheme'),
    'add_new_item'       => __('Add New Slide', 'bonestheme'),
    'edit_item'          => __('Edit Slide', 'bonestheme'),
    'new_item'           => __('New Slide', 'bonestheme'),
    'view_item'          => __('View Slide', 'bonestheme'),
    'search_items'       => __('Search Slides', 'bonestheme'),
    'not_found'          => __('No Slide Found', 'bonestheme'),
    'not_found_in_trash' => __('No slides found in Trash', 'bonestheme')
),

'description'          => 'Represents a single slide in the header slideshow.',
'hierarchical'         => false,
'menu_icon'            => 'dashicons-images-alt2',
'menu_position'        => 5,
'public'               => true,
'register_meta_box_cb' => array('SlideJS', 'createCPTMetaboxes'),
'rewrite'              => array( 'slug' => 'slides', 'with_front' => false ),
'show_in_admin_bar'    => false,
'show_in_nav_menus'    => true,
'show_ui'              => true,
'supports'             => array('title', 'editor', 'author', 'thumbnail', 'excerpt', 'trackbacks', 'custom-fields', 'revisions', 'page-attributes')
));
}
