    Chicago unveils Haymarket Monument -- 118 years later By Jeff Weiss, The Federation News
    'Hopefully because of our collaborative efforts, we will honor the famous last words of Haymarket martyr August Spies who stated: 'There will come a time when our silence will be more powerful than the voices you strangle today,'' Chicago Federation of Labor President Dennis Gannon said before the ceremony.

    'I believe that time has come this year and that we will never forget the significance of this labor site or the workers who paid the ultimate price for our freedom,' he added.
