James Chisholm King (July 11, 1886[1] – 1970[2]) was a dentist and political figure in Saskatchewan. He represented Humboldt from 1935 to 1938 in the Legislative Assembly of Saskatchewan as a Liberal.

He was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, the son of George King and Frances Annie Chisholm, and was educated there, in Dauphin and at Toronto University, where he received a DDS degree.[1] King practised as a dentist in Winnipeg before moving to Humboldt, Saskatchewan in 1911.[3] He served as mayor of Humboldt from 1920 to 1923 and in 1931. King was president of the Saskatchewan Council of Dental Surgeons and was also a Mason.[1] He was first elected to the provincial assembly in a 1935 by-election[4] held after the death of James Hogan.[5]
