He served briefly as First Lord of the Admiralty between March and December 1905.

Background and education

File:2009-07-16 Cawdor Castle.jpg

Cawdor Castle, Nairnshire, Scotland

Cawdor was the eldest son of John Campbell, 2nd Earl Cawdor and Sarah Cavendish, daughter of General Hon. Henry Cavendish, son of 1st Earl of Burlington and heiress Lady Elizabeth Compton. He was educated at Eton and Christ Church, Oxford. He was brought up on the family estates in south Wales and his coming of age in 1868 was a major event in the town of Llandeilo.<ref>Template:Cite news</ref> In 1874 he was appointed to be Deputy Lieutenant for the county of Inverness.<ref>Template:London Gazette</ref>

By 1880s, his father's estate brought an annual income of £45,000 a year.<ref>Template:Cite book</ref>

MP for Carmarthenshire

Cawdor was Conservative Member of Parliament for Carmarthenshire from 1874 to 1885. In 1885 the constituency was divided in two and Emlyn decided to contest the new West Carmarthenshire constituency, although most of his family property lay in the eastern part of the county. His chances there appeared to be negligible given the growing industrial population which had been a key factor in the triumph of the Liberal candidate, Edward Sartoris at the 1868 General Election. Emlyn was opposed by the other sitting member, the Liberal W.R.H. Powell, himself a former Conservative supporter, who had first declared his support for the Liberals at the 1874 election. Powell now proclaimed that he had a duty to the Liberal cause to oppose Emlyn.<ref name="SWDN 24-10-85 LibNEmlyn">Template:Cite news</ref>

It was reported that the Conservatives were confident of their chances in West Carmarthenshire, on the grounds that it was largely an agricultural division.<ref name="SWDN 2-11-85 Carms prospects">Template:Cite news</ref> However, the electorate had more than doubled in the county, and the 1885 electorate in the Western Division alone exceeded that of the combined county seat in 1880.<ref name="SWDN 2-11-85 Carms prospects" /> Powell's victory ended Emlyn's career in Carmarthenshire politics.

Later political career

He succeeded in the earldom in 1898 and served briefly under Arthur Balfour as First Lord of the Admiralty. Lord Cawdor took a leading part in the Conservative opposition to Lloyd George's budget of 1909 and in drafting resolutions for the reform of the House of Lords in 1910. He also notably opposed the Housing, Town Planning, etc. Act 1909.<ref name=Cherry>Template:Cite book</ref>Template:Rp

He was also involved in Pembrokeshire local affairs, and as Chairman of the Great Western Railway from 1895 to 1905 greatly improved the service. In 1903 he was described by Joseph Chamberlain as “the best chairman now living".<ref name=":0">{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref> In 1904 he was elected unopposed as a member of Pembrokeshire County Council to represent the Castlemartin ward.<ref name="W 4-3-04 Pembs noms">Template:Cite news</ref>

Lord Cawdor was an officer in the Royal Carmarthen Artillery, a Militia unit, where he was lieutenant-colonel in command from 24 September 1892 until he retired on 5 November 1902.<ref>Template:London Gazette</ref> During these years he was promoted to colonel and appointed an aide-de-camp to King Edward VII.
