- James Caldwell (1839–1925) was a Scottish politician. He served as an MP for two constituencies, both in Glasgow. He was first elected for Glasgow St Rollox in 1886 as a Liberal Unionist. During his term he went over to the Liberals, and in 1892 he stood for re-election not in his own constituency but in Glasgow Tradeston, where he was narrowly defeated. He was then elected as Liberal MP for Mid-Lanarkshire at a by-election in 1894, where he served until January 1910, when he stood down. Caldwell took an interest in development issues in the Highlands and Islands. In the spring of 1889, he undertook a trip to mainland Ross-shire and Lewis to gather information on obstacles to the development of the West Coast fishing industry. On the journey from Inverness to Ullapool, he was accompanied by Murdoch Paterson, chief engineer of the Highland Railway Company. (en)
