Most mature members of society believe in some sort of democratic fairness. Like Ralph, they understand the need for rules, laws, and government. Ralph is a gauge for the reader to observe just how successfully the boys are existing on the island. The harder the time Ralph has with the other boys, the more danger they are all in.
