Ohio County and Wheeling will go smoke-free soon, joining the majority of counties in West Virginia with some form of restriction on smoking in public. The ban takes effect May 27. . . .

Nevertheless, it is good to see clean air win another battle in West Virginia. Now only Barbour, Lewis, Logan, Mercer, Mingo and Pocahontas counties do not have any sort of smoking ban in place, according to The Associated Press. It's time for them to consider the question.
