Answer:

C: The telegraph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason is simple. The Pony Express was, at the time, our equivalent of the U.S Postal Service. When telegraphs came to be, suddenly two people from accross the world could speak to each other in seconds. Whereas the Pony Express took a lot of time to get from just one city to the next.
