The conch represents democracy, something Jack never believed in. Democracy was the reason he wasn't chosen as in leader in the first vote when he believed he should be.

The conch begins to lose it's power throughout the chapter and is truly worthless when Jack forms his own group to which he automatically becomes a leader choosing not to believe that a democratic vote will elect him as leader.

When Jack says the conch is no longer needed he says it because savagery has already won, he will become leader no matter what Ralph and the conch say.

He later mentions that the conch doesn't work on his half of the island which shows that he has no respect for democracy and that his tribe are lead by a dictator.

In William Golding's "Lord of the Flies," it is Ralph who first suggests that they no longer need the conch as a symbol of authority and order on the island. This happens as the boys become increasingly unruly and chaotic, ultimately leading to the breakdown of civilization among them.

Jack says that they don't need the conch anymore because he knows that the conch is the only thing that Ralph has that is keeping his tribe together.
