Maurice and Roger show their power by throwing rocks at the littluns playing with the sand castle, but Maurice's conscience tells him that it is wrong, so he feels ashamed at the end. This symbolizes that Maurice still has a bit of human civilization in him. Roger on the other hand seems to be the most evil of all the boys. He is the boy that kills Piggy and he seems to want power a lot. He throws rocks at the littluns and he is Jack's right hand man. Near the end of the book, when they take Samneric captive, Roger does something bad to them to make them go into Jack's group. Roger is described as being quiet, and he observe everything going on around him with close attention. So basically Maurice and Roger show their power by being forceful and violent.
Roger shows that civilization still has some control over him by not directly hitting Henry with rocks, indicating some restraint in his actions. Maurice also demonstrates this by hesitating to fully participate in Jack's violent conquests, suggesting some internal conflict between his primal instincts and societal norms.
